Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria are the most commonly used probiotics.¹ They are safe, effectively colonize the intestines, and decrease the entry of bacteria from the intestines into circulation.¹ Probiotics reinforce the epithelial barrier, which allows the absorbance of selected compounds and promotes the excretion of dangerous substances.¹ Probiotics control intestinal permeability by mediating the integrity of tight junctions, and prevent pathogenic adherence to cells by increasing the release of mucin on intestinal surfaces.¹ In addition to their barrier effects, probiotics decrease pathogen survival by increasing the release of anti-microbial peptides from host cells.¹ Although the microflora composition in the gut is relatively steady, it can be altered by diet, stress, age and medication.² Probiotics promote the presence of beneficial bacteria to maintain the health and normal function of the intestines.²
