Lactobacillusor, as it is often written, LactobacilliorLactobacilliare known to many under the term “probiotics.” They are among the beneficial bacteria that, among other things, strengthen our immune system and improve the environment inColon, in thevaginaand other areas of the body in a good balance. In addition to the well-knownLactobacillus acidophilusother tribes also play such asLactobacillus reuteri,Lactobacillus casei,Lactobacillus plantarum,Lactobacillus helveticusand others play a crucial role in our health. Bacterial cultures called prebiotics serve as food. In 2018,Lactobacillusnamed “Microbe of the Year”.
What exactly is Lactobacillus?
Lactobacillus refers to a genus of mostly rod-shaped bacteria that produce lactic acid through fermentation and are therefore also classified as lactic acid bacteria. Lactobacillus plays an important role in the production of dairy products or beer specialties such as Berliner Weisse. Lactobacillus actively lowers the pH value in the human intestine, creating an "acidic environment."
What is special about Lactobacillus?
This “acidic environment” increases theResistance to possible pathogens. A sufficient number of lactobacilli is also necessary to limit the proliferation of putrefactive bacteria (coliform bacteria) and thusto keep the intestinal flora in balanceThe colibacterium Escherichia coli functions as a vitamin producer (especiallyVitamin K), but pathogenic strains also belong to this species, which are among the most common causes of infectious diseases. The non-pathogenic Lactobacillusproduces lactic acid, acetic acid, vitamins and digestive enzymesIf there are not enough of the helpful lactobacilli in the intestine, the food consumed cannot be digested sufficiently and forms harmful residues in the body that limit well-being and increase susceptibility to disease.
Use of Lactobacillus for the vaginal flora
Lactobacillus is also important for a healthy vaginal flora. Stress, poor diet (a lot of white flour and refined sugar), the use of antibiotics, butExcessive hygiene can also cause the pH value of the vaginal flora to rise too much, which especially promotes fungal infections. To prevent this, the additional intake of specificLactic acid bacteriamake sense.
