Some of the Benefits of Lactobacillus Bacteria
There are several benefits of Lactobacillus acidophilus bacteria that are rarely known, including:
1. Potentially Prevents and Relieves Diarrhea
Diarrhea affects people for a number of reasons, including bacterial infections. This condition can be dangerous if it lasts a long time, because it results in fluid loss which can lead to dehydration. Numerous studies have shown that probiotics such as L. acidophilus can help prevent and reduce diarrhea associated with various diseases.
2. Potentially Helps Lose Weight
The bacteria in the gut can help control the digestion of food and a number of other bodily processes. Therefore, bacteria have a correlation with fluctuations or fluctuations in body weight.
Well, there is some evidence that probiotics can help you lose weight. Especially if a person consumes several different species of probiotics, at the same time. However, further research is needed to determine whether L. acidophilus, has a significant effect on body weight in humans.
3. Believed To Lower Cholesterol
High cholesterol levels (especially bad cholesterol or LDL) have been shown to increase the risk of heart disease. The good news is that some studies show that certain probiotics can help reduce cholesterol levels. Well, the probiotic that is considered more effective in this case is the bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus, when compared to several other types of probiotics.
However, another study published in 2015 found contradictory results. Because, the study found that consuming L. acidophilus bacteria and other probiotics for six weeks significantly, not only lowered bad cholesterol or LDL. However, levels of good cholesterol, or HDL, also decreased.
Based on the results of these studies, of course, more research and scientific data are still needed.
