Category: Ingredients

Product Type: Enzymes & cultures

Manufacturer: Danisco

A new study demonstrates for the first time that the oral administration of Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM mediates analgesic functions in the gut equivalent to morphine effects. These findings suggest that the microbiology of the gut influences visceral pain perception, and they open new perspectives in the treatment of abdominal pain and irritable bowel syndrome with this unique microbial strain. One of the world’s most tested probiotic strains, it is backed by extensive scientific documentation that proves its gut health benefits as well as its long-term stability.
