Posted 2 years ago by Soraya in General Health News
Tara Parker-Rope discusses the difficulty of knowing the right probiotic from the wrong one. To our delight, Parker-Rope quickly states that 'different probiotic species and strains confer different health benefits.' The article selected a few scientific studies, and looked specifically into the benefits of probiotics for the immune system. It concluded that "consumers interested in probiotics should look for products that list the specific strain on the label and offer readers easy access to scientific studies supporting the claims."
