February 3, 2009 updated by: Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital

Influence of Nutrition on Nasal and Bronchial Affliction in Patients With Allergy on Grass-Pollen After Low-Dosed Specific Bronchial Provocation

The study is meant to observe the influence of nutrition on nasal and bronchial discomfort in patients with allergy on grass pollen after specific bronchial provocation. Therefore, the investigators will record the patients' nutrition habits and measure the blood level of long chained polyunsaturated fatty-acids.
