Designing an optimal diet requires knowledge of the biological activity of food products, particularly in relation to people with food allergies. The hypothesis, which constitutes the basis of this thesis, states that the peptides and glycopeptides released from proteins by enzymatic hydrolysis are able to change the quantity and quality of the human gastrointestinal ecosystem. Such substrates may interfere with adhesion to the intestinal epithelium microbiota and alter enterocytic metabolic activity. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of protein hydrolysates from rice milk substitute on gut epithelial cells and the intestinal microbiota of healthy people and ones suffering from an allergy to milk. The following experimental work applied systems that reflect the conditions occurring in the gastrointestinal tract.
