Is Lactobacillus acidophilus aerobic or anerobic?
Most friendly bacteria (probiotics, those in fermented foods) are aerobic, meaning they survive in oxygen-rich environments, while most unfriendly bacteria, yeasts such as candida albicans, molds, etc are anaerobic and cannot survive in aerobic conditions. I found this out when researching the santitizing effects of hydrogen peroxide on sprouting and fermenting, and making rejuvelac and homemade probiotics. It will only harm the bad guys, and leave the good guys alone! Good news. Great health is simple, cheap, and easy. Enjoy!
