Recurrent pneumonia in Indian children.

Description:

Seven Indian infants with recurrent pneumonia were studied and found to have an underlying sensitivity to cow's milk as well as to other foods. These children remained symptom-free only as long as they remained on restricted diets. Although the syndrome seems to be particularly common in Indian children it is not uncommon in Caucasians.
