Gut check: can probiotics boost your Body's food breakdown?
NCT ID NCT07287306
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether two probiotics, BLa80 and LRa05, can help healthy adults break down food better by changing gut bacteria. Researchers will measure blood metabolites over 8 weeks in 375 participants. The goal is to learn how these probiotics affect digestion, not to treat any disease.
