What Are the Benefits of Probiotic Freeze-Dried Powder?
Probiotic freeze-dried powder plays various roles, including promoting the digestion and absorption of nutrients, enhancing immune function, maintaining the balance of intestinal flora, and improving the antioxidant level of the body. Probiotics are active microorganisms beneficial to the host that colonize in the human body and alter the composition of flora in a specific part of the host. By regulating the mucosal and systemic immune functions of the host or balancing the intestinal flora, they promote the absorption of nutrients and maintain intestinal health, thereby generating beneficial single microorganisms or a well-defined mixture of microorganisms.
1. Promoting Digestion and Absorption of Nutrients
Probiotics can synthesize digestive enzymes that participate in the digestion of nutrients in the intestine along with the digestive enzymes synthesized by the animal body. They stimulate the secretion of digestive enzymes by the animal body, reduce the depth of intestinal crypts, increase villus height, increase the surface area of the small intestine, and promote the absorption of intestinal nutrients.
2. Enhancing Immune Function
The structural components of probiotics, such as peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid, can directly activate the immune system as antigens or stimulate the immune system of the host through the secretion of immune activators, thereby enhancing the immune function of animals, strengthening the activity of innate immune cells and natural killer cells, activating dendritic cells, stimulating the production of cytokines, and stimulating B cells to secrete antibodies. Probiotics can also stimulate the intestine to produce secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), protecting the health of the body.
3. Maintaining the Balance of Intestinal Flora Structure
The intestine is not only a normal component of the body that participates in important physiological activities, but it also contains a complex intestinal flora that plays a crucial role in the growth, development, and health of the host.
4. Improving Antioxidant Level of the Body
Oxidants in the body, such as oxygen free radicals and hydroxyl radicals, contain unpaired electrons and are prone to redox reactions. When the amount of oxidants in the body exceeds a certain level, it can lead to oxidative damage. However, the body has an antioxidant system that continuously eliminates the oxidants produced by the body, maintaining a dynamic balance of oxidants.
