Bifidobacterium Lactis

What Is Bifidobacterium Lactis?

It may surprise you to learn that the human body contains close to 10 trillion cells. And every single cell encodes around 23,000 genes.1 While those numbers may impress you, the truth is that the bacteria actually outnumber the cells in your microbiome. They live in and on you.

Now, your microbiome consists of over 500 different species and holds approximately 100 trillion cells. Those trillions of cells happen to encode over 3.3 million distinct genes.2 So it should come as no surprise that your microbiome plays a huge role in your overall health.

The gastrointestinal microbiota (the ones living in your intestine) account for the most significant population within your microbiome.3

What is Bifidobacterium lactis (otherwise called B. lactis)? Well, B. lactis is one of the strongest, multi-purpose species of probiotic bacteria. They live in your gut.

History Of Bifidobacterium Lactis

The history of Bifidobacteria lactis began in 1899 when they were initially found and isolated from the feces of breastfed infants. B. lactis are indigenous to the human intestinal tract.4

Since then, Bifidobacterium lactis has been classified as a catalase-negative, rod-shaped bacterium. In 1983, B. lactis was deposited in a cell culture bank at Danish Bioscience company, Chr. Hansen.5

B. lactis expresses fermentation activity, good stability, and a high tolerance for acid and bile. Thus, it works in freeze-dried products and dietary supplements. Moreover, B. lactis exhibits no adverse effects on taste or mouthfeel when added to food and can survive until consumption.6

Potential Health Benefits Of Bifidobacterium Lactis

Probiotics serve several beneficial purposes within the human microbiome, and Bifidobacterium lactis is no exception. The potent strain has been found in study after study to help support healthy digestion and immune function.7

Furthermore, B. lactis offers significant assistance when it comes to supporting your body’s mineral absorption.8,9,10,11
