May Help Boost Your Immune System

Probiotics may assist to enhance your immune system and prevent the formation of dangerous gut bacteria. Furthermore, several probiotics have been proven to increase the body's synthesis of natural antibodies. They may also increase the number of immune cells such as IgA-producing cells, T lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. According to a major review, ingesting probiotics lowered the frequency and duration of respiratory infections. However, the evidence was of poor quality.

Another research with approximately 570 children showed that consuming Lactobacillus GG decreased the incidence and severity of respiratory infections by 17%. Lactobacillus crispatus, a probiotic, has also been proven to lower the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women by 50%.
