Some Beneficial Effects of Probiotic Bacteria

Abstract: A number of health benefits have been claimed for probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, bifidobacteria, and Lactobacillus casei. Because of the potential health benefits, these organisms are increasingly incorporated into dairy foods. A number of health benefits have been claimed including antimicrobial, antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic properties, reduction in serum cholesterol, improvement in lactose tolerance in lactose intolerant people and adherence to intestinal cells.

“…Different approaches are used in an attempt to preserve viability of probiotic cultures. These include among others, pre-exposure of probiotic cultures to sub-lethal stresses (Desmond et al, 2002) and incorporation of micronutrients such as peptides and amino acids (Shah, 2000). The disadvantage of pre-exposure to sublethal stresses is that it may result in significant decreases in cellular activity, cell yield and process volumetric productivity (Doleyres & Lacroix, 2005).…”

“…Probiotics are defined by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO) as "live microorganisms, which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host" [14]. A number of health benefits of probiotic organisms has been suggested and described in numerous reviews [25,37].…”

“…El contenido de fenoles totales presento diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los tratamientos y el control, pero no entre muestras tratadas. Los valores de fenoles totales para el control son despreciables comparados con los valores arrojadas para las muestras tratadas, lo que es de esperarse considerando que la fuente mayoritaria de polifenoles en el yogurt es la fruta adicionada, la aparición de cierto contenido de fenoles totales en la muestra control se explica considerando la presencia de aminoácidos aromáticos endógenos como la tirosina que responden positivamente a la prueba de fenoles totales (Shah, 2000).…”
