“ Should it become desirable to permanently colonize the human intestinal tract with an exogenous probiotic, it is reasonable to suggest that a human-specific probiotic with potent intestinal mucosal cell adhesion properties be chosen. Selection of such strains on the basis of this criterion may be insufficient. It may be necessary to culture surgical or biopsy specimens to select suitable probiotic strains. “
” An ideal probiotic would be one that can survive passage through the gastrointestinal tract, [and] establish itself permanently in the small intestine and colon… ”
Many probiotics do survive stomach acid, and the bile salts of the small intestine, they just don't adhere to the mucosal lining of the large intestine, to take up residence with the existing bacteria. I imagine this is true of all existing probiotics on the market? Would a company sell a probiotic that only needs to be taken once?
