Probiotic supplement reduces GERD symptoms
We aimed to find out how a food supplement containing probiotics, peptides, and vitamins impacts individuals with mild-to-moderate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In a thorough study, 56 participants were divided into two groups; one received the active supplement while the other got a placebo for 28 days.
The results were promising, showing a notable decrease in heartburn frequency and severity for those on the supplement. Additionally, they reported taking fewer over-the-counter medications, and their quality of life improved compared to the placebo group. This suggests that dietary supplements might offer a beneficial alternative for managing GERD symptoms.

We explored the effects of Lactobacillus species on bile-induced DNA damage in esophageal cells, which occurs during gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). By exposing these bacteria to a bile-rich environment, we found they could survive and interact beneficially with injured cells.
Notably, adding Lactobacillus after bile injury boosted the repair of DNA damage and lessened inflammation. This suggests that these probiotics could play a role in protecting against long-term complications of GERD, like Barrett's esophagus and esophageal cancer.

Lactobacillus acidophilus shows minimal effect
We investigated whether the probiotic Lactobacillus acidophilus could help infants with primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). In this study, 128 infants were split into two groups: one received probiotics while the other received antibiotics.
While the probiotic group experienced slightly fewer UTIs compared to the antibiotic group, the results were not statistically significant. Overall, both groups had similar outcomes for UTI causes, resolution of VUR, and renal scarring. However, probiotic treatment showed a reduced rate of antibiotic resistance among the infections.

Eliminated heartburn
3 people found this helpful
The acidophilus bacillus thrives in the stomach, being the only beneficial bacterium able to survive in such acidic conditions, preventing Helicobacter pylori from settling. Thanks to acidophilus, my stomach remains healthy and prevents heartburn, as a very acidic environment ensures that the sphincter closes tightly, stopping stomach contents from refluxing into the oesophagus. This is how I overcame reflux esophagitis that had troubled me for years.

Eliminated reflux completely
After developing reflux from antibiotics, my dentist friend advised probiotics, which surprised me by completely eliminating the reflux. I've learned that good gut health through probiotics greatly influences overall well-being, so I take them daily. They also help me maintain regular bowel movements and are easy to swallow.
