The Role of Probiotics
Not All Probiotics are the Same
• A range of factors including diet, viruses, bacteria and antibiotics can lead to disturbances in the normal intestinal microbiota, a key factor in digestive and immune issues. • Probiotics can help restore the balance by promoting colonization to support better digestion and immune health.
• Different strains of probiotics do different things, one must be careful to select the appropriate strain for the intended purpose.
• Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®) is the most clinically proven effective probiotic strain.†
• Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®) has over 200 human clinical trials behind it, making it the most studied probiotic available.††
Only Culturelle® has 100% Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®)**
You can trust Culturelle®, the expert in probiotics, to help keep your patients’ digestive and immune systems healthy.*
† Based on the studies of a range of benefits throughout the lifespan†† Based on the number of Lactobacillus GG clinical studies, as of May 2017.** Among leading brands Culturelle® is a trademark of DSM. LGG® and LGG logo® are trademarks of Chr. Hansen A/S.

Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®) Has Been Shown to Modulate Nonspecific Immune Responses Differently in Milk Tolerant and Milk-Hypersensitive Adults.
The expression of phagocytic receptors on neutrophils and monocytes was compared prior to and after a milk challenge. While milk significantly increased the expression of certain phagocytic receptors in milk-hypersensitive individuals, the addition of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®) attenuated this increase and ultimately the inflammatory response. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®) had the opposite effect in healthy participants where the phagocytic receptor expression was up-regulated.
