Interactions and Safety of Acidophilus + B. Lactis Bi-07
Interaction Details
Taking Acidophilus and B. Lactis Bi-07 together has the potential for significant synergy as both are probiotic strains that can complement each other in gut health modulation, suggesting a rating of 4 out of 5.
Both Acidophilus and B. Lactis Bi-07 are probiotics that can colonize different areas of the gastrointestinal tract and have different mechanisms of action, potentially leading to a broader range of beneficial effects when taken together. Acidophilus primarily works in the small intestine, aiding in lactose digestion and contributing to the gut barrier function. B. Lactis Bi-07, on the other hand, is known for its ability to survive passage through the gut and can influence the gut microbiota composition and immune system function. The combination may enhance gut health by improving the gut barrier, modulating the immune system, and potentially producing beneficial metabolites. The synergy arises from their complementary actions and the potential for a more robust and diverse gut microbiota.
