The human intestinal tract contains more than 400 bacterial species, although its composition can be altered by diet, stress, medication, and age.¹ Supplementation with large numbers of a combination of microorganisms helps maximize intestinal colonization, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria.² The intestines are essential barriers that selectively allow absorption and promote the excretion of hazardous substances.³ Probiotics prevent pathogenic bacteria from colonizing the gastrointestinal tract by reducing the pH and stimulating the production of antimicrobial peptides in the intestine.³ In addition to decreasing bacterial survival, probiotics strengthen the epithelial barrier.³ They mediate the integrity of tight junctions, which control permeability, and increase mucin release, which prevents pathogens from adhering to cells.² Together, this decreases the movement of bacteria from the intestines into circulation.³ Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria are the most commonly used probiotics, and are safe and effective for both adults and children; however, once their ingestion ends, their counts decrease or disappear.^3,4
