As part of those guidelines, NICE published a set of research recommendations for areas and questions where more information was needed and hence more studies were encouraged. Research centres such as King’s College London (KCL) and Monash University have carried out research on the Low FODMAP Diet. The team at KCL have gathered evidence that the Low FODMAP Diet is effective in the short and long-term, broadly acceptable to patients and enables a nutritionally balanced diet.

Improper composition of the intestinal flora may cause inflammations and weaken the activity of the immune system of the host. It has been proven that various strains of intestinal L. plantarum can stimulate the production of cytokines IL-12 and IL-10 and therefore take part in modulating the immune system. Moreover, these bacteria usually also demonstrate the properties causing reduction of IL-8 secretion, which is a strong pro-inflammatory cytokine. L. plantarum299v is therefore able both to control immunological reactions as well as to exert anti-inflammatory effect.
