Summary

The investigators recruited participants aged 20-65 years who did not have gastrointestinal diseases and who were not taking medication for digestive symptoms (e.g., gastric acid inhibitors, antibiotics, sterilization medications, or antidiarrheal agents) in the month before enrollment. The participants were prohibited from consuming any probiotic foods, supplements, or fermented dairy products except those that were provided during the 6-week study. Each participant first completed a 2-week adaptation period (n = 22). Subsequently, each participant was randomly assigned to either a control or intervention group. The participants received two 200-g daily servings of either a probiotic-infused fermented milk or a control dairy product for 4 weeks.
