Lactobacillus Acidophilus Powder

What Is Lactobacillus Acidophilus?

Lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus) is a type of probiotic (“good” bacteria) found in the human gut, mouth, and vagina, and also in certain foods.

“Good” bacteria such as L. acidophilus can help break down food, absorb nutrients, and fight off “bad” organisms that might cause diseases. L. acidophilus is sometimes added to fermented foods like yogurt and is also found in probiotic supplements.

People commonly use L. acidophilus for diarrhea from antibiotics, as well as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), overgrowth of bacteria in the vagina, and an infection caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). It is also used for acne, hay fever, eczema, and many other conditions.

For gut health support, you may also be interested in our Galacto Oligosaccharides Powder or Organic Inulin Powder, both of which serve as prebiotic fibers that complement probiotic supplementation.

Health Benefits of Lactobacillus Acidophilus

1. Cholesterol Management

Lactobacillus may decrease the amount of cholesterol the body absorbs from food, which can lower overall cholesterol levels. It may be more effective at decreasing total cholesterol levels than other probiotics.

2. Diarrhea Relief

By balancing the gut microbiome, Lactobacillus can help treat diarrhea. Probiotics like Lactobacillus repopulate and encourage the balance of healthy gut bacteria, which can treat digestive discomfort.

What the Science Says: A 2022 review found that Lactobacillus shortened the duration of diarrhea in children compared to a placebo. For additional digestive enzyme support, see our Amylase Powder.

3. IBS Symptom Improvement

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) causes abdominal pain, gas, diarrhea, and constipation. Lactobacillus supplements may help relieve these symptoms.

More studies are needed to confirm these findings. Some evidence suggests that Lactobacillus may also cause side effects in some people with IBS.

4. Vaginal Infection Prevention

Taking Lactobacillus supplements daily may prevent and treat bacterial vaginosis (BV), a common vaginal infection. BV happens when there is an imbalance in vaginal bacteria.

Lactobacillus also may prevent an overgrowth of the yeast Candida albicans, which causes vaginal yeast infections. It may have antimicrobial and antifungal properties.

5. Immune System Support

Lactobacillus may have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antiviral properties, so it may support immune health. It strengthens the gut barrier and white blood cell activity, functions that protect you from infection and other toxins.

Taking the probiotic may protect against COVID-19, pneumonia, and other respiratory infections. However, more studies are needed to support this possible benefit.

Natural Sources of Lactobacillus Acidophilus

Lactobacillus may be found in several fermented foods, such as:

• Cheese
• Kimchi
• Kombucha
• Miso
• Pickles
• Raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar
• Sauerkraut
• Yogurt

Recommended Dosage

Adults who take L. acidophilus often do so in doses of up to 60 billion colony-forming units (CFUs) per day. Typically, it’s taken for up to six months.

Children should take smaller doses of up to 30 billion CFUs daily for no more than three months.

Please follow the directions on the supplement packaging or check with a healthcare provider for an appropriate L. acidophilus dosage.
