Here are some ...: Taking probiotics is to help restore the altered dysbalance of natural normal bacterial flora inside colon and small intestine leading to changing pattern of normal BM from developing so-called SIBO, in turn, to malabsorption, malnutrition, impaired immune ability, etc. , and has been clinically confirmed to be helpful.
