Probiotic improves IBS-C symptoms
Effect of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus IDCC 3201 on irritable bowel syndrome with constipation: a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled trial.
Most Relevant Research
We examined the effects of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus IDCC 3201 on patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). In a robust study involving 30 participants, we used a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design.

After eight weeks of treatment, the probiotic group reported significant improvements in bowel activities and discomfort linked to constipation. Notably, symptoms like abdominal bloating also improved.

Our findings suggest that this probiotic might help enhance gut health by promoting beneficial microbes and their metabolites.

Restores regularity
Most Useful Review
Easy for children to take. My daughter faced issues with constipation, particularly when on antibiotics. I give her one probiotic every other day, and she is now regular with her bowel movements. It's easy to chew, and she enjoys the flavour, making it a suitable choice. We've been using this for over a year.

LC-STH-13 counters lupus effects
LC-STH-13 ameliorates the progression of SLE in MRL/lpr mice by inhibiting the TLR9/NF-κB signaling pathway.
Most Relevant Research
We explored the effects of probiotic LC-STH-13 on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in MRL/lpr mice. Our study demonstrated that LC-STH-13 significantly decreased harmful autoantibodies and rebalanced specific immune cells.

We also observed reduced immune cell infiltration in kidney tissue, indicating less inflammation. Furthermore, the probiotic helped restore healthy gut microbiota which gets disrupted by SLE. These findings suggest that LC-STH-13 may offer a novel way to manage lupus by targeting both immune regulation and gut health.

Strengthened immunity
Most Useful Review
Probiotic greatly strengthened my child's immunity. The taste is pleasant, so my son took them willingly. We ordered two packs, and the improvements were noticeable after a month. Not only did his digestive health improve, but his behaviour was also better with fewer tantrums. Thick hair grew, which I attribute to the probiotics, and his immunity strengthened as he did not fall ill even when around sick peers.

Lactobacillus association with pelvic pain
Urinary Microbiome and Cytokine Levels in Women With Interstitial Cystitis.
Most Relevant Research
We examined the urinary microbiome of women with interstitial cystitis and found it less diverse and containing fewer Lactobacillus acidophilus compared to a control group.

This lack of Lactobacillus was linked to more severe symptoms and poor quality of life. While we noted some associations between higher inflammatory markers and the severity of symptoms, we didn’t see a clear causal relationship.

Essentially, we’re still unsure if the presence of Lactobacillus can effectively reduce pelvic pain in this context.

Improved bowel movements
Most Useful Review
Great probiotics! I bought these on recommendation and was pleased with my decision. My child, aged five, enjoys taking them one to two hours before bedtime. After two weeks, his regular bowel movements improved and complaints of pelvic pain disappeared. The composition, with 14 different strains, is excellent. I definitely recommend these for children.

Bifidobacterium bifidum improves IBS symptoms
Randomised clinical trial: Bifidobacterium bifidum MIMBb75 significantly alleviates irritable bowel syndrome and improves quality of life--a double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
Most Relevant Research
We assessed how Bifidobacterium bifidum MIMBb75 impacts symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in a controlled study of 122 participants.

Over four weeks, those taking MIMBb75 reported significantly reduced IBS symptoms compared to the placebo group.

With many experiencing better pain relief and improved quality of life, these findings suggest that MIMBb75 could be a valuable treatment option for IBS, showing durability with minimal side effects.

Improved bowel function
Most Useful Review
Great probiotics! I purchased these on recommendation and it was a wise choice. My 5-year-old takes them willingly, dissolving 1-2 hours before bed. In two weeks, her bowel movements improved, and the frequent complaints of abdominal pain disappeared. The composition is excellent, featuring 14 different strains often hard to find elsewhere. I highly recommend them for children.

Most Useful Review
Excellent! The effect was immediately noticeable; my 7th child's allergic rashes vanished from the cheeks. It positively affects the gastrointestinal tract, especially since kids often consume chips and chocolate. I took all three types simultaneously and didn’t discern a significant difference in flavours. We will continue for three months with a break afterward.

Bifidobacterium lactis alleviates bloating
Clinical trial: the effects of a fermented milk product containing Bifidobacterium lactis DN-173 010 on abdominal distension and gastrointestinal transit in irritable bowel syndrome with constipation.
Most Relevant Research
We conducted a study to see if a fermented dairy product with Bifidobacterium lactis DN-173 010 could help reduce bloating in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and constipation. In a controlled trial with 34 participants over four weeks, we found that this probiotic significantly decreased abdominal girth and improved gastrointestinal transit times.

Patients reported feeling less bloated, and symptom severity also decreased. These findings suggest that fostering faster transit times may be an effective method to combat abdominal distension.

Gut recovery achieved
Most Useful Review
Kids loved the taste and helped heal my 8-year-old’s distressed gut. He had significant tummy troubles and persistent bloating despite dietary changes. After finding this organic probiotic, his stools returned to normal in just a few days and bloating resolved within a week. He loves the taste and has been taking them daily for about three months. On days with more carbs, we give him two capsules to avert any bloating. This probiotic has truly aided his gut health, and getting him to take it is no hassle.

Lactobacillus acidophilus helps eczema
Lactobacillus acidophilus KBL409 Ameliorates Atopic Dermatitis in a Mouse Model.
Most Relevant Research
We explored the potential of Lactobacillus acidophilus KBL409 in addressing atopic dermatitis, a common form of eczema. By using a mouse model induced by house dust mites, we found that administering this probiotic led to significantly lower dermatitis scores and less immune cell infiltration in the skin.

Additionally, L. acidophilus KBL409 reduced serum immunoglobulin E and influenced various cytokines linked to inflammation. It also positively affected gut microbiota and concentrations of beneficial compounds, hinting at a broader impact on our immune responses. Overall, our findings suggest that L. acidophilus KBL409 may be a promising probiotic for eczema management.

Probiotics reduce flu symptoms
Probiotic effects on cold and influenza-like symptom incidence and duration in children.
Most Relevant Research
We examined how Lactobacillus acidophilus could help reduce cold and flu-like symptoms in young children during the winter months. In this well-structured study, 326 children aged 3 to 5 participated. They were randomly assigned to one of three groups: one received a placebo, while the others were given either Lactobacillus acidophilus alone or in combination with another probiotic, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp lactis.

Over a period of six months, the children in both probiotic groups reported significantly fewer symptoms and shorter durations of ailments compared to those on the placebo. For instance, the incidence of fever dropped by 53% to 73%, while coughing and rhinorrhea (a runny nose) also saw impressive reductions. Children taking probiotics needed antibiotics much less often and missed fewer days of childcare due to illness.

Overall, this study suggests that incorporating daily Lactobacillus acidophilus into children's diets can be an effective approach to bolster their health during flu season. It shows promise as a safe and helpful way to reduce common winter illnesses in young kids.

Tremendous improvement
Most Useful Review
This product has been excellent for my five-year-old. I sought a proper chewable probiotic—not merely a vitamin. With only vitamins C and D added, it has been instrumental in keeping him healthy this year. He has food sensitivities and environmental allergies and has historically been prone to illness. Since taking this, he has only been sick twice, a massive improvement. He did not catch the bad flu this year while many others did. I strongly believe this product helped, and he enjoys the taste.

With a lovely watermelon taste, these probiotics significantly helped my child’s frequent tummy aches and constipation. Although the doctor assured us that my child was fine and suggested introducing vegetables, he adamantly refused. After about a week of using these probiotics, he experienced no pain, swelling, or constipation.

Bifidobacterium bifidum improves CMPA
Bifidobacterium bifidum TMC3115 ameliorates milk protein allergy in by affecting gut microbiota: A randomized double-blind control trial.
Most Relevant Research
We explored how Bifidobacterium bifidum TMC3115 could help infants with cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). In our controlled trial with 256 infants, half received B. bifidum while the other half received a placebo.

Over six months, we observed significant reductions in allergic scores and improvements in anti-inflammatory responses among those taking B. bifidum. We also found changes in gut microbiota, increasing beneficial bacteria and decreasing potentially harmful ones.

Though promising, these interventions indicate that managing CMPA may benefit from focusing on gut health.

Reduced sick days
Most Useful Review
This product has been remarkable for my 5-year-old. I was looking for a chewable probiotic without vitamins. It only has added vitamins C and D. It has kept my child healthy this year despite his food sensitivities and seasonal allergies. He had just two illnesses this year, a massive improvement compared to before.

Positive effects on gastrointestinal symptoms
Effect of a symbiotic gel (Lactobacillus acidophilus + Bifidobacterium lactis + inulin) on presence and severity of gastrointestinal symptoms in hemodialysis patients.
Most Relevant Research
Our research aimed to understand how a specific symbiotic gel, containing Lactobacillus acidophilus, affects gastrointestinal symptoms, including heartburn, in hemodialysis patients.

We conducted a double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial with 42 participants over two months. The group receiving the symbiotic gel reported significant improvements in the frequency and severity of symptoms like heartburn and stomachache compared to the control group.

Overall, the gel appeared safe with no adverse effects noted. More extensive studies are needed, but these findings suggest promising benefits for managing heartburn in dialysis patients.

Most Useful Review
Helped my son with cold sores! My son was 9 years old when his first cold sore appeared, and since then, he has had them every month. Doctors advised me to apply cream each time he had an outbreak. Antibiotics were suggested for a year with no guarantee of success. I purchased this probiotic, which he takes every morning after breakfast, and for the past six months, he hasn’t had any outbreaks! I'm delighted, and he is too, as he no longer has to face everyone's stares due to his cold sore. This brand works well for our entire family; I buy it monthly! I highly recommend it for children!
