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.

They WORK!!! Typically, I don’t write reviews, but I had to share how excellent this product is. I’ve been searching for something that actually maintains a healthy balance for us ladies, and this is the perfect solution. I take three a day first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, and it has kept me balanced. Previously, I suffered from recurrent infections because any antibiotic I took would disrupt my balance and lead to more infections. However, since I began taking these, I haven’t experienced any infections. I would highly recommend this product.

A Must Have. I will use this forever; it cleared my yeast and bacterial infection up in a month. I used to get watery discharge, but I no longer have that problem since using it. My digestive system has improved greatly too.

Since taking it, I've been able to manage a bothersome recurring infection that I had been enduring for over a year.
