Cost-effective, safe as adjunct in the routine treatment of common pediatric conditions Role in Illnesses Role in Illnesses Allergy is on the rise in industrialized nations. It is estimated that the incidence of asthma in the Philippines doubled between 1980 and 2000. The hypothesis suggests that the exposure of infants to microbes before the age of six months helps the immune system mature to be more tolerant of exposure to allergens later in life. Increasing exposure to microbes must be done safely. The effects of a Lactobacillus strain on incidence of atopic eczema in 132 infants at high risk of developing eczema. Role in Illnesses Role in Illnesses Pregnant mothers two-to-four weeks before delivery and newborn babies through six months of age were given Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Infants were followed through two years of age and incidence of recurring atopic eczema was recorded. The study reported a 50% drop in incidence of recurring atopic eczema in the group receiving the probiotic supplement. Role in Illnesses A follow up study of these same children indicated that these same trends were still present at 4 years of age. These results suggest that exposure to the right types of microbes early in life may decrease the risk of allergy. Role in Illnesses Elevated Blood Cholesterol. Cholesterol is essential for many functions in the human body. It acts as a precursor to certain hormones and vitamins and it is a component of cell membranes and nerve cells. But, elevated levels of total blood cholesterol or other blood lipids are considered risk factors for developing coronary heart disease. Role in Illnesses Researchers found that the bacteria actually can help control serum cholesterol in two ways. First, as the bacteria grow in the intestinal tract, they take up some of the cholesterol that is present, and it becomes associated with the cells as the bacteria grow. Second, at least part of the cholesterol actually becomes incorporated into the bacterial cells. Either way, the cholesterol becomes unavailable for absorption from the intestine into the blood. Role in Illnesses Probiotic cultures have been evaluated for their effect on serum cholesterol levels. Clinical studies on the effect of lowering cholesterol or (LDL) low-density lipid levels in humans. There have been human studies that suggest that blood cholesterol levels can be reduced by consumption of probiotic-containing dairy foods by people with elevated blood cholesterol. Role in Illnesses Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium which colonizes the stomach and can cause gastric ulcers and gastric cancer. The effect of probiotics on H. pylori has been studied. Mechanistic studies in laboratory assays or in animal models have shown that antibacterial substances including (but not limited to) organic acids produced by some lactobacilli inhibit the growth and survival of this pathogen. Results in humans suggest that some probiotic strains or milk fermented with a probiotic strain can reduce metabolic activity or colonization by H. pylori. Role in Illnesses Probiotics have also been used to manage side effects of triple antibiotic therapy used to treat Helicobacter pylori infections. In these studies, the use of probiotics decreases the side effects of antibiotics, improves patient compliance with taking the prescribed therapy, and increases the rate at which Helicobacter pylori is eradicated (Lionetti et al. 2006; Myllyluoma et al. 2005; Sheu et al. 2006; Sykora et al. 2005). Role in Illnesses Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional bowel disorder that can be characterized by symptoms of abdominal pain, cramps, gas, bloating, diarrhea and constipation. Surveys estimate the prevalence rate ranging from 10-20% of the adult population and the condition is diagnosed 3 times more often in women than men (FDA Consumer Magazine, July-Aug, 2001). Role in Illnesses It shows controlled studies that have been conducted evaluating probiotics and IBS (RingelKulka T, Ringel Y. Probiotics in irritable bowel syndrome: has the time arrived? Gastroenterology. 2007 Feb;132(2):813-6). Some symptom relief (primarily from diarrhea or abdominal pain or bloating) has been reported in studies published to date (Whorwell PJ, Altringer L, Morel J, Bond Y, Charbonneau D, O'Mahony L, Kiely B, Shanahan F, Quigley EM. Efficacy of an encapsulated probiotic Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 in women with irritable bowel syndrome. Am J Gastroenterol. 2006 Jul;101(7):1581-90.). Role in Illnesses Inflammatory bowel diseases such as “Ulcerative Colitis” and “Crohn’s disease”, are serious intestinal diseases that can lead to the surgical removal of the colon. The cause of these diseases is not known but it has been hypothesized that an intolerance to the normal microbiota in the gut leads to inflammation and resulting pathology. The role of gut flora in the progression of these diseases has led some researchers to study the impact certain probiotic bacteria might have on maintaining the state of reduced inflammation that occurs during remission stages of the diseases. Lactobacillus Acidophilus Lactobacillus Acidophilus This bacterium thrives in more acidic environments than most related microorganisms (pH 4-5 or lower) and grows best at 45 degrees Celsius. Lactobacillus acidophilus occurs naturally in the human intestine, mouth, and vagina. Lactobacillus acidophilus ferments lactose into lactic acid. Lactobacillus acidophilus itself (a homofermentative microorganism) produces only lactic acid. Like many bacteria, Lactobacillus acidophilus can be killed by excess heat, moisture, or direct sunlight. Lactobacillus Bulgaricus Lactobacillus Bulgaricus Lactobacillus bulgaricus is one of several bacteria used for the production of yogurt. First identified in 1905 by the Bulgarian Dr. Stamen Grigorov, it is named after Bulgaria. The bacterium feeds on milk and produces lactic acid which also helps to preserve the milk. It breaks down lactose and is often helpful to sufferers of lactose. While fermenting milk, Lactobacillus bulgaricus produces acetaldehyde, which perfumes yogurt. Some of the biggest importers of the bacterium are Japan, USA and the EU. Lactobacillus Rhamnosus Lactobacillus Rhamnosus Lactobacillus casei is a transient, anaerobic microorganism of genus Lactobacillus found in the human intestine and mouth. As a lactic acid producer, it has been found to assist in the propagation of desirable bacteria. This particular species of lactobacillus is documented to have a wide pH and temperature range, and complements the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus, a producer of the enzyme amylase (a carbohydrate-digesting enzyme). It is known to improve digestion and reduce milk intolerance and constipation. Lactobacillus Helveticus Lactobacillus Helveticus Lactobacillus helveticus is a homofermentative thermophilic lactic acid bacterium. Our data contribute to the description of microbial heterogeneity in Lactobacillus helveticus and provide a more solid basis for understanding the functional and ecological significance of the presence of different Lactobacillus helveticus biotypes in natural dairy starter cultures. This bacterium works as a support in all the group and it has significantly powerful in terms of assistance. Lactobacillus Fermentum Bifidobacterium Longum Lactobacillus Fermentum Lactobacillus fermentum was selected for further study, since, in addition to its intrinsically high adhesion rate, this organism was found to exhibit a “preferential binding” to the follicleassociated epithelium of the Peyer's patches compared with its level of binding to the mucussecreting regions of the small intestine. Kulani Lactobacillus Plantarum Lactobacillus Plantarum Lactobacillus plantarum is a widespread member of the genus Lactobacillus. It is in saliva (from which it was first isolated). It has the ability to liquefy gelatin. Lactobacillus plantarum has one of the largest genomes known among the lactic acid bacteria and is a very flexible and versatile species. Bifidobacterium Bifidus Bifidobacterium Bifidus Bifidus (Bifodobacterium bifidum) lowers the pH of the intestine, manufactures specific B vitamins, promotes immune function, and supports the health of the large intestine (colon). Bifidus is a natural inhabitant of the large intestine that helps with the absorption of water from food and the processing of remaining waste. Good intestinal flora in the large intestine can help inhibit gas and bloating. Bifidobacterium Infantis Bifidobacterium Longum Scientists have sequenced the genome of one of the most important residents in the human gastrointestinal tract, a bacterium that keeps the digestive system running smoothly, blocks the growth of harmful bacteria, and boosts the immune system. The microbe, called Bifidobacterium longum, is often the dominant bacterium found in humans. Bifidobacterium Breve Bifidobacterium Breve Bifidobacteria are natural inhabitants of the human gut microbiota, representing up to 91% of the total gut population in breast-fed babies. Some strains of the genus Bifidobacterium are considered probiotics and can exert several health-promoting effects. Bifidobacterium breve is one of the species more often found in infants. The intestinal microbiota is continuously exposed to cytotoxic agents, including antibiotics. Recent evidence indicates that Bifidobacterium breve is generally more resistant to antibiotics than other Bifidobacterium species Bifidobacterium Lactis Bifidobacterium Lactis Effects of Bifidobacterium lactis Bb12 Supplementation on Intestinal Microbiota of Preterm Infants: a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Study. J Clin Microbiol. 2006 November; 44(11): 4025–4031. Streptococcus Thermophilus Streptococcus Thermophilus Streptococcus thermophilus (official name Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus). It is also classified as a lactic acid bacterium (LAB). Streptococcus thermophilus is found in milk and milk products. (it does not survive the stomach) and generally used in the production of yogurt.
