From birth to old age, our intestinal landscape is an ever-shifting balance of health-promoting organisms (probiotics) and problematic ones. Long used safely in food, modern research confirms the safety and sustainability of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus oral probiotic species. Probiotics beneficially affect the intestinal microbiota via local and systemic immune mechanisms as well as non-immune mechanisms. Various structure/function benefits can accrue, including the following:
Competition with microbial pathogens for nutrients and adhesion sites
The human gastrointestinal tract harbors between 10 trillion and 100 trillion microorganisms, comprised of hundreds of bacterial species. But we don’t start out that way. The newborn’s initial gut endowment is limited to a few types of organisms and gradually changes until it reaches a high diversity like the adult gut by 1 to 2 years of age. This development is affected by whether the birth was vaginal or cesarean section, as well as whether the first food was breast milk or formula. Infants born vaginally have increased bacterial diversity or “richness” in the gut, increased chances for normal weight, and other health parameters. Breastfed infants typically have a bifidobacteria-dominated microbiota, most likely due to the presence of prebiotic breast milk oligosaccharides as well as probiotic organisms in breast milk.
Improper acquisition of a diverse and balanced microbiota during infancy and early childhood may have an adverse impact on health into adulthood. Healthy initial colonization can influence gut maturation and immune, brain, and metabolic development.
Whether young or old, male or female, the human gastrointestinal tract may benefit from evidence-based strains, hypoallergenically formulated and safely delivered
