Help Reduce Antibiotic Resistance
A recent study found that probiotic supplementation may help reduce antibiotic resistance. The study’s authors say that probiotics can help restore the balance of gut bacteria, which can be disrupted by antibiotics.
The study was conducted in mice, and found that probiotic supplementation reduced the levels of a specific type of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the animals’ guts. The researchers say that their findings could have implications for human health, as antibiotic resistance is a growing problem worldwide.
Reduce inflammation
Probiotics have the ability to reduce inflammation in the gut. In fact, they are often prescribed to treat inflammatory bowel diseases. They work by restoring the balance of good and bad bacteria in the gut. This helps to reduce inflammation and improve gut health.
There are many different probiotic strains that can be effective in reducing inflammation. Some of the most popular strains include Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Bifidobacterium longum. Probiotics are available in many different forms, including capsules, powder, and liquid.
