NCIt definition : A water-based multi-strain probiotic composed of an extract of germinated barley containing
the four live, activated lactic acid bacteria strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus, L.
acidophilus, L. plantarum, and Enterococcus faecium, with potential immunomodulatory
and anti-inflammatory activities. Upon oral administration of Lactobacillus rhamnosus/L.
acidophilus/L. plantarum/ Enterococcus faecium aqueous probiotic supplement, these
four live bacteria modulate the composition of the normal gastrointestinal (GI) microflora,
by increasing the beneficial bacteria and decreasing the harmful bacteria, and helps
maintain adequate colonization of the GI tract, thereby improving digestion and preventing
GI disturbances. These bacteria and the butyric acid produced by them create an environment
unfavorable to pathogens by adhering to human epithelial cells, protecting epithelium
by maintaining the tight junction integrity and forming a protective mucosal barrier.
This prevents attachment of pathogens and reduces the risk of infection, and potentially
reduces the severity of mucositis. By restoring gut microbiota, these bacteria may
restore or enhance intestinal immune responses.;
