Probiotics feed additives

1. What are probiotics?

Probiotics are bacteria that are beneficial to organisms and animals. After being put into the body, they play a beneficial role by improving the ecological balance of the host's (organic and animal) intestinal flora to achieve the improvement of the host's health and good health. Live bacteria preparations and their metabolites .
Probiotics exist in all corners of the earth. They are colonized in the intestines and reproductive system. They are the source of health for life.
Beneficial bacteria or fungi in the body and animals mainly include: Clostridium butyricum, lactic acid bacteria, bifidobacteria, Lactobacillus acidophilus, actinomycetes, yeasts, etc. At present, the most powerful products researched in the world are mainly composite active probiotics composed of the above-mentioned various microorganisms, which are widely used in the fields of bioengineering, industry and agriculture, food safety, and life and health.
Now the research on probiotics is very in-depth and detailed, and has been widely used in various fields such as industry, agriculture, environmental protection, and households, and has achieved very significant results. Hundreds of probiotics have been developed at home and abroad. Bacterial health products, including: yogurt containing probiotics, yogurt, soy milk, and oral liquids, tablets, capsules, powders, antibacterial sprays, etc. containing a variety of probiotics.

2. Classification of probiotics:
    So far, the probiotics that scientists have discovered can be roughly divided into three categories, including:
    ① Lactobacilli (such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus jannaschii, Lactobacillus ramanii, etc.);
    ②Bifidobacteria (such as Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium gold (Bifidobacterium Lactobacillus triple viable tablets), Bifidobacterium breve, Bifidobacterium ovale, Bifidobacterium thermophilus, etc.);
    ③ Gram-positive cocci (such as Streptococcus faecalis, Lactococcus, Intermediate Streptococcus, etc.).
    In addition, some yeasts and enzymes can also be classified as probiotics.

 3. The effect of probiotics on the body:
    ①Prevent or improve diarrhea: Poor eating habits or taking antibiotics will break the balance of intestinal flora and cause diarrhea. Supplementing probiotics helps to balance the intestinal flora and restore normal intestinal pH. Relieve symptoms of lactose intolerance: Lactobacillus can help the body break down lactose, relieve diarrhea, flatulence and other uncomfortable symptoms. It can be eaten with milk.
    ②Producing important nutrients: Probiotics can produce vitamins, including pantothenic acid, niacin, B1, B2, B6, and vitamin K. At the same time, they can produce short-chain fatty acids, antioxidants, amino acids, etc., which are beneficial to bone growth and heart health. Important role.
③Prevent reproductive system infection: Long-term supplementation of active probiotics in the body can help repair the microcirculation of the reproductive system.
    ④Strengthen the body's immunity: There is a very developed immune system in the intestine. Probiotics can stimulate the immune function in the intestinal tract to adjust the immune activity that is too low or too high to a normal state. The immunomodulatory effect of probiotics is also believed to help fight cancer and inhibit tumor growth, and inhibit allergic diseases. Inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. Probiotics suppress their growth by producing chemicals that kill harmful bacteria and competing with harmful bacteria for space and resources. Inhibit harmful bacteria to produce toxins. Eliminate toxins produced by harmful bacteria.
    ⑤Promote the health of the intestinal digestive system: Probiotics can inhibit the reproduction of harmful bacteria in the intestine, reduce toxins, and promote intestinal peristalsis, thereby improving intestinal function and improving defecation.
