Enterolactan

Enterolactan is a brand name for a dietary supplement containing the probiotic bacterium *Lactobacillus reuteri* DSM 17629. This specific strain is often used for its purported benefits in supporting gut health and digestive well-being. Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. *Lactobacillus reuteri* is a naturally occurring bacterium found in the human digestive tract and other environments.

Enterolactan is typically available in capsule form and is intended for oral consumption. The product's manufacturer suggests that *Lactobacillus reuteri* DSM 17629 may help to maintain a healthy balance of gut flora, which can be disrupted by factors such as antibiotic use, stress, or poor diet. Some research has explored the potential of this probiotic strain in areas such as infant colic, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and general digestive discomfort. However, as with many probiotic supplements, individual responses can vary, and scientific evidence supporting specific claims is continually being evaluated. It is generally recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new dietary supplement, including Enterolactan, to ensure it is appropriate for your individual needs and health status.
