The probiotic L. paracasei Ameliorates Diarrhea via gut microbiota modulation

Koumiss is a fermented horse milk food containing abundant probiotics. Lactobacillus paracasei is a bacterial strain isolated from koumiss that helps regulate the intestinal microflora. One of the major cause of diarrhea is a imbalance of the intestinal flora. The aim of this study was to investigate whether Lactobacillus paracasei can ameliorate E. coli-induced diarrhea and modulate the gut microflora.
