In particular, the bacteria are selected from the following genera: Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacillus, Propionibacterium, Streptococcus, Lactococcus, Aerococcus and Enterococcus.
Abstract:
A composition comprising a mixture comprising or, alternatively, consisting of: at least one bacterial strain selected from a group comprising or, alternatively, consisting of bacterial strains belonging to the species Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. Lactis, and preferably, at least one extract of at least one species of berries comprising a polyphenol fraction of said berries. and a related method wherein the composition is an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agent are described.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition which comprises a mixture which comprises or, alternatively, consists of an extract (a) of a fruit of at least one plant of the genus Vaccinium and at least one ingredient (b) acceptable for pharmaceutical or food use and the use thereof in the prevention and/or treatment of diverticular disease or of a pathology deriving therefrom or correlated thereto.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of a composition comprising bacteria to increase the intestinal production of butyric acid, folic acid or niacin and/or to decrease the intestinal production of succinic acid. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of said composition for the treatment and/or prevention of an intestinal butyrate- and/or succinate-dependent pathological condition. In particular, for the treatment and/or the prevention of intestinal inflammation, diarrhoea, ulcerative colitis or intestinal colopathies.
