Article Synopsis
- The gut microbiota and its metabolites significantly influence human health, and prebiotics and probiotics can help modify these gut bacteria for better outcomes.
- This study examined the effects of the probiotic Bifidobacterium longum BB-46, with and without citric pectin from lemon, on gut microbiota using a human gut simulator.
- Results showed that B. longum BB-46 alone increased beneficial bacteria in the colon, while the combination with pectin further enhanced beneficial species and reduced harmful bacteria, leading to lower levels of harmful ammonia and increased levels of butyric acid, indicating potential health benefits.
