Australian scientists unveiled a "radical" approach that could revolutionise asthma treatment at a research conference in Canberra on Monday.
The research, described as a "world first", used subtle changes in diet to help keep the respiratory disease under control.
It was presented for the first time at the annual meeting of the Thoracic Society for Australia and New Zealand.
"This is the first time anyone has looked at the impact of altering the gut microbiome on asthma control in humans," the society's president Professor Peter Gibson said.
"We're at the tip of a new paradigm for how diet can be used to treat asthma."
