10 Benefits of Kimchi
Benefit #3: Eases Allergy Symptoms
Food is essential to us, we simply cannot live without it. Unfortunately, some types of food are off bounds to certain people because they have allergic reactions to them. Some types of food like peanuts and seafood in particular are known to be able to produce unpleasant and potentially dangerous reactions.
Research has shown that kimchi contains compounds that are able to suppress the severity of allergic reactions. For example, one study showed that eating kimchi before being exposed to an allergen meant that airways would become less restricted than otherwise. More research is needed, but it may result in a lot of foods being back on the menu again for many people.
