We investigated whether a probiotic mix containing Lactobacillus acidophilus could prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children aged 4 months to 5 years.
The study involved 181 children divided into two groups, one receiving probiotics and the other a placebo, over 18 months.
Results showed that the probiotic group had a lower recurrence of UTIs, with a composite cure rate of 96.7% compared to 83.3% in the placebo group. Overall, using this probiotic mixture may be a promising non-antibiotic option for UTI prevention in young children.

We explored how well lactobacillus acidophilus and other probiotics can inhibit urinary tract pathogens like E. coli and Enterococcus faecalis. Using specific tests, we found that while all probiotic strains, including L. acidophilus, showed some inhibitory effects, the mixtures of probiotics did not perform better than individual strains. This hints at potential benefits in reducing urinary tract infections, but the advantage of probiotic mixtures remains unclear.
Essentially, these probiotics can help combat urinary infections through their activity, yet further research is needed to determine their practical use.

We investigated how a biosurfactant called 'surlactin,' derived from Lactobacillus acidophilus, prevents harmful bacteria and yeast from sticking to surfaces that mimic the urinary tract. Using a specialized flow chamber, we observed that surlactin significantly reduced the adhesion of most bacteria tested, particularly effective against common culprits like E. coli and Staphylococcus. Though yeast attachment was also lowered by 50%, their overall numbers remained unchanged. This suggests that while lactobacillus can inhibit some pathogens, it may not be as effective against yeast in the same context.

Yeast infection relief
This might be a bit sensitive to discuss, but many women, including myself, have experienced girly issues like certain infections. I don't understand why, as I maintain good hygiene. I previously relied on yoghurts, but they took ages to work. Instead, I've switched to probiotic pills to better fight yeast infections, and they’ve worked wonders for me. Within a week, my yeast infection seemed to clear up completely. Since starting these, I haven't faced that issue again. I even noticed that the eczema around my lips has been less irritated. I can't say if that's intentional, but I’m pleased with the results. I would surely repurchase this!

We examined how a combination of D-mannose, Salicin, and Lactobacillus acidophilus could help those suffering from recurrent urinary tract infections caused by E. coli. During our study with 85 participants, we introduced this regimen over several weeks and surveyed symptoms through a bladder diary and a scale measuring pain levels.
The results were promising. Participants experienced notable reductions in pain and frequency of symptoms. However, while our findings indicate this approach could be beneficial, further large-scale studies are necessary to confirm its effectiveness.

We explored how locally isolated Lactobacillus species could tackle antibiotic-resistant bacteria responsible for urinary tract infections. Our study involved screening lactic acid bacteria extracted from spoiled produce against various resistant pathogens.
The results were promising, showing that these lactobacilli had antimicrobial activity against six out of seven tested uropathogens. This suggests that using Lactobacillus may be a viable alternative in the battle against UTIs, helping to combat antibiotic resistance effectively.

We investigated how by-products from Lactobacillus rhamnosus can affect uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), the bacteria commonly responsible for urinary tract infections (UTIs). Our findings revealed that lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and other compounds from these probiotics significantly inhibited the growth of UPEC.
Additionally, they reduced the production of proteins that help the bacteria cling to the urinary tract. This suggests that Lactobacillus rhamnosus and its by-products offer protective benefits against UTIs by combating harmful bacteria and reducing their ability to establish infections.

We explored the effectiveness of probiotic lactic acid bacteria, particularly Lactobacillus acidophilus, in preventing urinary tract infections linked to catheters.
Through a thorough study involving 120 catheterized patients, we tested various uropathogens and their ability to form biofilms.
Although probiotics showed promise in preventing catheter colonization in vitro, further research is necessary to confirm safety and efficacy in real-life settings.
This suggests a potential step forward in managing catheter-associated urinary infections.

Digestive improvement
I bought this probiotic for my children, hoping to enhance their immune systems. I tested these probiotics with sour milk, and it produced a delightful fermented product. While I don't notice any significant effects on my children, these capsules proved invaluable for my husband, who needed antibiotics and injections for 14 days. Since he took these probiotics throughout his treatment and for a week afterward, they effectively saved his digestive tract, restoring balance during that demanding time.
