Probiotics and athletes
The afternoon sessions featured a presentation of new data about Lactobacillus helveticus Lafti L10 as a promising candidate to support immune health in athletes.
Dr Stephanie-Anne Girard, clinical program manager, Lallemand Health Solutions, presented data from in vitro, animal models and human intervention trials to show that the strain could be a safe alternative to prevent the onset and/or reduce the severity of URTIs in athletes as well as people with active lifestyles.
