probiotics (food supplement)

back to ingredient overview

Probiotics are dietary supplements of live microorganisms thought to be healthy for the host organism. Probiotic dietary lactobacilli colonize the intestinal tract, depending on the specific bacterium-to-host affinity. Bacteria are continually in competition for colonization space. Probiotics are thought to beneficially affect the host by improving its intestinal microbial balance, thus inhibiting pathogens and toxin producing bacteria.
