The health benefits of probiotic bacteria are strain specific. Clinical research performed on individual strains repeatedly demonstrates strain-specific effects, and different levels of efficacy in various health concerns. (1)
This presentation will cover the reasons why different probiotic strains demonstrate different effects and highlight the evidence-based effects of a selection of key probiotic strains. Most importantly, it will assist clinicians to develop a deeper understanding of why considered strain selection is important and provide the knowledge to identify high-quality evidence-based probiotic products.

Topics covered include:

  • The importance of strain specificity in probiotic supplementation.
  • Explore a strains supporting evidence for specific effects and applications in specific health conditions.
  • Relate strain-specific actions to complex clinical presentations.
  • Develop a deeper understanding of the importance of considered strain selection in clinical practice.
