ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides the composition and the method for treating autoimmune diseases and a mucosal disorder via oral-tolerance induction and innate immunity promotion. The composition for treating the autoimmune disease and mucosal disorder includes the polysaccharide prepared from a plant, wherein the plant belongs to GenusDendrobium.
