Regional lifestyles influence allergic disease risks, with dietary factors being crucial. However, observational studies on micro- and macronutrient impacts are inconsistent. We used a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design with the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method and sensitivity anal...
