Abstract

Consuming probiotics is a healthy fad that nutritionists and doctors are encouraging; eat enough, and your digestion will improve. However, millions of “good” bacteria live in us and perform healthy functions. Women, for example, have probiotics that originate in the vaginal canal. One particular kind of bacteria there may provide benefits during pregnancy.
