A Probiotic to Meet Consumer Needs
Probiotics are now considered as an obvious solution for immunity. Consumers are looking for probiotics dedicated to immune health, this result in an increase by 20% in product launches with immune health claims in 20211. According to a 2020 survey from Council for Responsible Nutrition report “Supplemental Security Income (SSI)”, 82% of Americans know that probiotics may support their immune health. This report explains why probiotics now rank in the top 10 ingredients dedicated to immunity.
LifeinU™ BSCU1 as a probiotic supports immune health, as validated by a recent clinical study.
During this clinical study, the biomarker monitored is the secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA). sIgA are the abundant antibodies of the immune system, located at the most vulnerable interface with the environment: the mucosa. sIgA are key elements in the protection of respiratory and intestinal epithelium and are considered as the first line of defence against pathogens.
With age, sIgA level decreases and can lead to a higher sensitivity to common infections. But other factors, like intensive training, long term use of medication and our modern lifestyle which can leave us stressed, sleep deprived and fatigued, can also induce the weakening of our natural defences.
A drop in sIgA levels leads to a weakening of the natural defence and increases the risk of infections.
A supplementation with LifeinU™ BSCU1 induces a significant and durable increase in sIgA levels in the intestine and the saliva.
The results of this clinical study are confirmed by a new and innovative in vitro model called the gut-on-chip.
LifeinU™ BSCU1: The Ally Against Common Colds
Thanks to the increase levels of sIgA induced by a supplement with LifeinU™ BSCU1, the probiotic can increase the protection against infections.
This is validated by the clinical study. LifeinU™ BSCU1 impact positively the human body against infections. The supplementation with LifeinU™ is associated with a reduction in the occurrence of days with infections but also with a reduction of the frequency of upper respiratory tract infections.
