“…In Taiwan between 2019 and 2022, the interest in vitamin B complex appeared to be higher in autumn, while the interest in vitamin C and D appeared to be higher in spring and summer, and the interest in probiotics appeared to be higher in spring and autumn. People are more likely to engage in outdoor activities during spring, summer, and fall, and supplementation of nutritional supplements could help in improving activity performance, enhancing immunity, and reducing the severity of allergy symptoms [ 39 ].…”

Background Due to the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in 2020, the interest of nutritional supplements has emerged. Limited data are available on how the COVID-19 pandemic affects the search interest in nutritional supplements in Taiwan and worldwide. The study aims to investigate changes in public search interest of nutritional supplements pre- and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Our World in Data dataset was used to collect both global and local (Taiwan) number of COVID-19 newly confirmed cases and deaths. Google Trends search query was being used to obtain relative search volumes (RSVs) covering a timeframe between 2019 to 2022. Spearman’s rank-order correlation coefficients were used to measure relationships between confirmed new cases and deaths and RSVs of nutritional supplements. Multivariate analysis was conducted to examine the effect of domestic and global new cases and deaths on the RSVs of nutritional supplements. Results The mean RSVs for nutritional supplements were higher during the COVID-19 pandemic period (between 2020 to 2022) compared to the pre-pandemic period (year of 2019) for both Taiwan and worldwide. In terms of seasonal variations, except for vitamin D, the mean RSVs of probiotics, vitamin B complex, and vitamin C in winter were significantly lower compared to other seasons in Taiwan. The RSVs of nutritional supplements were not only affected by domestic cases and deaths but also by global new cases and deaths. Conclusions The interests in nutritional supplements had substantially increased in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The RSVs of nutritional supplements in Taiwan were not only influenced by global and domestic pandemic severity but also by seasons.

High prevalence of food allergy (FA), increasing frequency of severe cases despite the progress achieved in the study of this pathology makes it necessary to develop new methods for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of food allergies. At the Congress of the European Academy of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) 2021 current problems of allergology and immunology were considered, such as the influence of environmental factors on the development of FA, including the effects of microplastic contamination in food on development of allergic diseases, global warming, large-scale urbanization, that lead to an imbalance in the microbiota of the macroorganism, reduction in its diversity, followed by alterations in gut microbial colonization and the development of FA; determination of FA markers with detecting previously unidentified allergens that cause severe allergic reactions. Assessment of risk factors and biomarkers of the severity of FA was discussed, as well as the importance of component diagnostics, which allows predicting acute allergic reactions, determining indications for prescribing AIT, and maximizing individualization of treatment. Innovative treatment approaches were presented using biological therapy, the role of pre- and probiotics, fecal microbiota therapy in restoring the microbiome; features of the diet that regulates the gut microbiota. In considering the prevention of FA changes were made to the previous EAACI recommendations for monitoring children in the first year of life, monitoring the state of adolescents with FA.
