The difference between live bacteria tablets and probiotics


Dedicated to your well-being.
The difference between live bacteria tablets and probiotics is mainly due to different ingredients, different survivability and different uses.
1. Different ingredients
Live bacteria tablets usually refer to tablets or capsules containing active bacteria; probiotics refer to a group of bacteria beneficial to the human body, including lactic acid bacteria, bifidobacteria, etc. Live bacteria tablets are a form of probiotics, but not all probiotic products are live bacteria tablets.
2. Different survivability
Live bacteria tablets emphasize the survival of bacteria, that is, the bacteria remain active in tablets or capsules. Probiotics are more widely referred to as beneficial bacteria to the human body, which can include live bacteria, dead bacteria, bacterial metabolites, etc.
3. Different uses
Live bacteria tablets are mainly used to regulate intestinal microecological balance, improve intestinal function and digestive system health. Probiotics are more widely used. In addition to regulating intestinal microecological balance, they can also be used to improve immune function, relieve allergic reactions, reduce cholesterol, etc.
