Maternal carriage of *Prevotella* during pregnancy associates with protection against food allergy in the offspring
P. J. Vuillermin, M. O'hely, et al.
In a groundbreaking study by Peter J. Vuillermin and colleagues, the microbiome of expectant mothers was linked to the immune development of their babies. Findings suggest that higher maternal levels of *Prevotella copri* during pregnancy could significantly reduce the risk of food allergies in children. This research sheds light on how household factors and maternal bacteria influence allergic disease outcomes in modern populations.
