What are Lactobacillus Acidophilus sources?
The primary dietary sources of Lactobacillus Acidophilus (Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria) are fermented dairy foods, and milk products enriched with acidophilus. Foods providing adequate amounts of acidophilus include live yogurt cultures, miso, and tempeh. These products vary greatly concerning the type of bacteria used and their individual potencies. Another source of probiotics include dried or liquid cultures of living bacteria made available in a variety of nutritional supplements. These cultures are often marketed as freeze-dried powders, granules, or capsules. Supplemental Lactobacillus Acidophilus is also offered in the form of a liquid, or included in probiotic extracts.
