Probiotics have the effect of relieving constipation, inhibiting intestinal inflammation, improving allergies, and enhancing the body's resistance. Many probiotics can alter the pH value in the vagina, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, and prevent infections in women's vagina. For hypertensive patients, taking probiotics can also help prevent and treat hypertension.
Improving human immunity: Probiotics can produce substances such as hydrogen peroxide, organic acids, bacteriocins, and free fatty acids to inhibit the reproduction of harmful bacteria. When probiotics grow on the mucosa, skin surface, or between cells, they can form a biological barrier that prevents the reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms, compete with harmful bacteria for nutrients, coexist symbiotically, and resist them. They also stimulate the non-specific immune function of the body, enhance intestinal immunoglobulin secretion, and improve intestinal barrier function.
Reducing serum cholesterol: Research shows that the effect of probiotics in lowering serum cholesterol is related to regulating endogenous metabolites and promoting fatty acid metabolism. Taking biological agents such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus can convert cholesterol into coprostanol-like substances, which are not absorbed by the human body, thereby achieving the purpose of lowering serum cholesterol.
Alleviating allergies: Immune dysfunction in the human body can lead to allergies. If an allergic person is stimulated by foreign substances or organisms to produce excessive immunoglobulins, releasing a substance called histamine, it can cause allergic symptoms. Probiotics can regulate immunoglobulin antibodies in the body and relieve allergic symptoms.
Preventing vaginal infections: Many probiotics can acidify the genitourinary tract. They can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria by reducing the pH value in the vagina and suppress the proliferation of harmful bacteria by competing with them for living space and resources.
