Official title
Probiotics (Lactobacillus Gasseri, Bifidobacterium Bifidum, Bifidobacterium Longum) on Immune and Intestinal Health in Healthy Older Adults
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether healthy older adults, aged 65 to 80 years, consuming a probiotic each day for three weeks will have improved immune strength and digestive health. It is hypothesized that older adults consuming the probiotics will see a shift in their microbiota towards the "healthy" bacteria resulting in a greater proportion of immune cells, decreased inflammation, and better digestive health.
