Enhanced Immune Function Through Consumption of Fermented Foods
Enhanced Immune Function via Gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) plays a pivotal role in the body’s immune defense by monitoring intestinal microbial populations and preventing the translocation of pathogens. Fermented foods, rich in probiotics and bioactive compounds, have been shown to modulate immune responses by interacting with GALT. This white paper explores the mechanisms by which […]
Lactic Acid Bacteria and Their Role in Fermentation: Beneficial Species for Human Gut Health
Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are a group of Gram-positive, non-sporulating, anaerobic or facultatively anaerobic bacteria that produce lactic acid as a major end-product of carbohydrate fermentation. They are pivotal in the fermentation of a wide array of foods and beverages, contributing to flavor, texture, and preservation. Beyond their industrial applications, certain LAB species are recognized […]
