There is extensive literature on the development and management of food allergy, but some basic questions such as why some proteins are allergenic while closely related proteins from other species are not allergenic, remain to be answered. This paper is not a detailed review of food allergies, but rather an overview of current knowledge regarding soy food allergies, with a focus on the pig as a model for the study of soy allergies and with additional information on how soy allergies and use of soybean-sourced feed can affect production animal agriculture.

Ulcerative colitis (UC), which is a major form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is a chronic relapsing disorder of the gastrointestinal tract affecting millions of people worldwide. Alternative natural therapies, including dietary changes, are being investigated to manage or treat UC since current treatment options have serious negative side effects. There is growing evidence from animal studies and human clinical trials that diets rich in anthocyanins, which are pigments in fruits and vegetables, protect against inflammation and increased gut permeability as well as improve colon health through their ability to alter bacterial metabolism and the microbial milieu within the intestines. …
