Lactobacillus aids pigs' health
We explored the effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus fermentation products on weanling pigs that were challenged with a harmful strain of bacteria known as enterotoxigenic F4 Escherichia coli (F4-ETEC). To better understand this, we conducted a detailed study involving eighty pigs, which were divided into five groups based on different diets. This included a control diet, as well as diets supplemented with various fermentation products and zinc oxide.
After inoculating the pigs with F4-ETEC to simulate infection, we observed significant changes in the pigs’ fecal microbiome when they were given a combination of Lactobacillus and Saccharomyces products. These changes in the microbiome were previously linked to better growth performance and overall health in young pigs.
Interestingly, the pigs receiving both Lactobacillus acidophilus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae products showed an increase in final live weight. This suggests that using these postbiotics could help manage performance issues associated with ETEC without needing to eliminate the bacteria entirely from the pigs' environment. Therefore, while Lactobacillus acidophilus was not the sole hero in this study, its combined use proved beneficial in combatting the negative effects of this bacterial challenge.

Relieved cystitis symptoms
1 people found this helpful
I had a horrendous episode of dysbiosis and bacterial vaginosis following 10 months of antibiotic treatment and hormonal therapy. My intestines became dysfunctional, causing pain and constipation. The situation worsened with cystitis. Despite three months of suffering, antibiotics only temporarily alleviated symptoms. However, after starting d-mannose and this probiotic, my cystitis symptoms improved dramatically from day two, and the probiotic showed significant progress by day three.

These Garden of Life Dr. Formulated probiotics are excellent for maintaining healthy digestion. I purchased them primarily for yeast infection and constipation issues, and they've been effective. They come in small capsules with no taste or smell, making them suitable for sensitive individuals. Moreover, they don't require refrigeration, which is very convenient while travelling.

Boosted immunity
Probiotics for pregnant women utilise a scientific formula with various beneficial strains to balance intestinal flora and reduce harmful bacteria, enhancing digestive function and immunity, thereby preventing infections. The independent packaging is convenient and ensures probiotics remain effective and hygienic. Many users report significant improvements in their physical condition, such as increased appetite and better digestion, confirming its effectiveness. However, users should consult their doctor or nutritionist for suitability.

Promotes vaginal health
Best for pregnant women! I certainly feel the difference before and after taking the pills. Having a healthy bacterial colony in the vagina is crucial as the baby moves during pregnancy.
