Named diseases that a pet dog can protect against


Scientists from the USA have found that the presence of a dog in the house reduces the risk of eczema and asthma in infants.
Relevant reports were presented at the congress of the American Association for the Study of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, reports EurekAlert.
Experts analyzed the incidence of allergic eczema in children whose mothers spent at least an hour a day with pet dogs during pregnancy. It turned out that in this case, rashes in newborns appeared much less frequently.

However, the positive effect decreased as the child grew older and disappeared by the age of ten.
Scientists also found that the presence of four-legged animals in the home alleviates specific symptoms in children with allergic asthma. The main role here is played by bacteria carried by pets.

The report's authors, however, caution that the benefits do not apply to those who suffer from dog allergies.
By the way, friendship between a dog and a person was explained by the influence of genes and oxytocin.
