| Description | Probiotic bacteria can prevent overgrowth of harmful bacteria and fungi in the intestines, genitourinary tract, and skin. This is accomplished via competitive inhibition, lactic acid production (resulting in an acidic colonic environment), and production of substances with antimicrobial properties. Lactobacillus sporogenes is a lactic acid-producing, spore-forming bacillus, representing a significant breakthrough in Lactobacillus supplementation, with significant advantages over L. acidophilus. L. sporogenes is a safe, effective probiotic that needs no special handling, survives in stomach acid, and is delivered to the small intestine without loss of viable organisms. In contrast, many other Lactobacillus products lose most or all of their potency before use, and do not survive well in stomach acid. Maintaining healthy vaginal flora is essential for preventing and treating non-specific vaginitis as well as vaginal candidiasis. In one study, vaginal administration of L. sporogenes was investigated in non-specific vaginitis. In this particular study, subjects with a specific diagnosis of Trichomonas or Candida vaginitis were excluded. Complete relief of pruritis and discharge was reported by 93 percent of subjects. Postmenopausal women required longer treatment. Lactobacillus sporogenes has been found to lower blood lipid levels, specifically total cholesterol, in patients with type II hyperlipidemia. L. sporogenes is able to bind cholesterol in the intestines, inhibiting absorption. In addition, it is believed to have some HMG-CoA reductase inhibiting activity – thus interfering with cholesterol synthesis. |
