We explored the potential of probiotics, specifically Lactobacillus acidophilus, in reducing the severity and frequency of respiratory tract infections in children. Conducted at Abbassi Shaheed Hospital, our study analyzed 70 children over six months who received probiotics for two weeks.
Our results showed a significant decline in respiratory symptoms and infections among the participants. Overall, this suggests that probiotics can indeed play a beneficial role in supporting children's respiratory health.

We explored whether Lactobacillus acidophilus can help combat lung infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
In this study, we administered L. acidophilus orally to infected mice for a week and observed significant reductions in bacterial load and infection severity.
Our findings showed that L. acidophilus treatment not only reduced the harmful effects of these bacteria but also helped in modulating the immune response, by lowering inflammation and boosting protective cytokines.
However, while our results are promising, further research is necessary to understand the full potential of this probiotic in treating pulmonary infections.

We explored the effectiveness of Lactobacillus acidophilus in preventing pneumonia among young children, including both undernourished and normally nourished groups. In a three-month study, children receiving a dietary supplement of live lactobacilli showed fewer episodes of respiratory infections compared to those on regular milk.
Interestingly, those in the Lactobacillus group experienced fewer severe cases of pneumonia and bronchitis. However, undernutrition was linked to higher severity and reduced effectiveness of the probiotic.
This highlights the complex role nutrition plays in immunity and treatment outcomes.

No microflora issues
This is my second order for this prebiotic. My husband and I caught covid-19, which led to pneumonia. We took antibiotics alongside this prebiotic. Despite the usual struggles with microflora after antibiotics, we experienced none this time. It works much better than previous products from the pharmacy. I recommend it.

Tolerated antibiotics well
Works! 100% checked! I ordered it twice. Initially, I tested it on milk: added the capsule's contents to warm milk, and by morning, it transformed into kefir! As for its efficacy in humans, I tested it on friends, family, and of course, myself. Everyone praised the results. We used it while taking antibiotics, maintaining our gut microflora without any constipation issues! Most importantly, when my son was in hospital with pneumonia, I gave him 2 capsules, and despite his sensitive stomach, he handled the antibiotics well, thanks to these probiotics! I highly recommend them, as they also help with diarrhoea and constipation!

Symbiotics lower postoperative infections
We explored how administering symbiotics, which include Lactobacillus acidophilus, impacts infection rates following colorectal surgery. In a randomized trial with 91 patients, those receiving symbiotics experienced a notable drop in infections compared to the placebo group. Specifically, only 2% of patients on symbiotics developed surgical site infections, whereas 21.4% in the control group did. This indicates that perioperative symbiotic treatment could be beneficial during surgical recovery. However, further research is necessary to confirm these findings.

L-C-dots show promise against pneumonia
We examined how carbon dots sourced from Lactobacillus acidophilus might tackle carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, a tough pneumonia-causing bacteria. Our tests showed that these carbon dots, known as L-C-dots, have strong antibacterial properties and can even work well with regular antibiotics.
Importantly, L-C-dots not only inhibited bacterial growth but also prevented biofilm formation, which is often a barrier to successful treatment. They even helped reduce the expression of specific genes linked to biofilm development.
This research suggests that L-C-dots could be a valuable addition to our arsenal against resistant pneumonia infections.

Probiotics reduce pneumonia rates
We explored the impact of a specific combination of probiotics on preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critically injured patients on mechanical ventilation. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, patients received either a probiotic formula or a placebo during their treatment.
The results were promising; those who received the probiotics showed a lower incidence of VAP and sepsis, along with shorter ICU stays. This suggests that using probiotics might be a helpful strategy for protecting vulnerable patients from these infections while in intensive care.

Improved gut health
After my treatment for covid and pneumonia, I acquired this to restore my intestinal microflora. A week later, I noticed significant improvement. These probiotics are excellent and at a great price.

Normalised child's stool
I felt compelled to leave a review. We ended up in hospital with our child who had pneumonia. After a week on antibiotics, our condition worsened, necessitating further antibiotics. After another ten days, the child's body reacted poorly. The doctor prescribed Acipol, which is standard. Just then, I received these brilliant capsules. Initially, I was hesitant to give a whole one, as my child is only 2. I started with half, and in the morning, the stool started normalising. After giving a total of three capsules, his stool returned to normal, and he now uses the potty after every meal. Health to you and your loved ones!

We evaluated the impact of probiotics, specifically Lactobacillus acidophilus and Aktoflor-C, on adolescents with community-acquired pneumonia undergoing antibiotic treatment. In our study involving 38 patients aged 11 to 18, we compared those receiving probiotics alongside standard antibiotics to those receiving antibiotics alone. Results indicated that while probiotics helped manage dysbiosis, they did not significantly improve overall treatment outcomes. This suggests that while probiotics may aid in addressing gut health, their effectiveness in treating pneumonia directly remains limited.
