Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The milk related symptom score at the 4th week

Compare the clinical symptoms of infants at the 8th week by milk-related symptom score (0-33) and higher scores mean a worse outcome.
The milk related symptom score at 12th week
Compare the clinical symptoms of infants at the 12th week by milk-related symptom score (0-33) and higher scores mean a worse outcome.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Infant food protein allergy is the most common allergic disease in children, which can lead to infantile-specific dermatitis, intestinal inflammation, and so on. Dietary avoidance is a common strategy for food protein allergy in infants and young children. However, the hidden etiology of food protein allergy or multiple food allergies often leads to poor efficacy. The aim of this study is to observe the clinical effectiveness of Bifidobacterium intervention on food allergy.
