Probiotics improve constipation symptoms
We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 92 children aged 4 to 12 with functional constipation. Over four weeks, we provided one group with a probiotic chewable tablet containing specific strains and compared their experiences to a placebo group.
The findings were promising; the probiotic group reported a significant improvement in stool frequency and a decrease in hard defecation. Specifically, hard stools decreased from 43% to 14%, while normal defecation increased from 56% to 80%. This study highlights the potential of probiotics as a valuable option for managing constipation in children.

Synbiotics improve constipation symptoms
We conducted a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial to explore the effects of synbiotics on constipation among chronic haemodialysis patients. While our study found that the synbiotic treatment did not significantly reduce indoxyl sulphate toxin levels, it notably improved constipation symptoms and the overall quality of life related to constipation.
This suggests that Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium longum may be beneficial for enhancing digestive comfort in individuals facing these challenges, even if they don't directly affect certain toxic levels in the body.

We evaluated how taking probiotics, specifically Lactobacillus acidophilus, could help improve bowel function and quality of life for patients after colorectal cancer surgery.
Using questionnaires sent to 193 patients, we found that those who took probiotics for three months reported better defecation frequency and less discomfort compared to those who did not.
Notably, all patients, regardless of their type of surgery, saw improvements in their bowel function and overall quality of life after the treatment.

Amazing is aptly named! After going vegan in June 2018, I encountered constipation and low energy. However, I managed my constipation and improved my energy with Amazing Grass, which I initially disliked but grew to enjoy. It's now part of my morning routine, helping with bowel regulation and allowing me to eliminate coffee and energy drinks completely.

Lactobacillus improves IBS-C symptoms
We investigated how a cultured milk drink containing Lactobacillus acidophilus affects symptoms of constipation in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C). Over 30 days, participants consumed the drink daily.
At the end of the study, an impressive 97.4% of IBS-C participants reported improvement in their constipation-related symptoms. We also noticed reductions in intestinal transit time and pro-inflammatory cytokines linked to IBS. Overall, this suggests that including this cultured milk drink may be a beneficial addition to IBS-C treatment plans.

We evaluated how lactobacillus acidophilus, both alone and in a mix with other bacteria, might relieve constipation caused by loperamide in rats. Over 14 days, we noticed that the groups receiving probiotics had significantly heavier and wetter stools compared to control animals.
Notably, the CKDBP group, a blend of multiple bacteria, showed the greatest improvement in intestinal transit. Measures like mucosal length and mucus secretion were also significantly enhanced in all probiotic-treated groups, highlighting their potential to alleviate constipation symptoms effectively.

Probiotics ease constipation in patients
We investigated whether probiotics could ease complications like constipation in thyroid cancer patients undergoing thyroid hormone withdrawal. Fifty patients were randomly assigned to either probiotics or placebo during their treatment. The results showed that probiotics significantly reduced constipation alongside other symptoms, suggesting a positive impact on the gut and oral microbiota.
This improvement might be linked to the restoration of microbial diversity in these patients, highlighting the potential benefits of probiotics in managing constipation and other complications after thyroid surgery.
