The Oral Health Probiotic, The Science Behind L. salivarius

Rose Myint on 13 April 2020

Lactobacillus salivarius or L. salivarius provides a great benefit to dental health. L. salivarius is found throughout the body, but it is particularly concentrated in the saliva, which makes it particularly different from most probiotic strains.

There have been a multitude of studies showing its ability to decrease the level of plaque forming bacteria in the mouth, while naturally freshening breath and reducing gum sensitivity.

In addition to improving oral health, L. salivarius has been proven to strongly inhibit H. Pylori, a type of harmful bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers.

If you are looking for a dairy-free, alcohol-free alternative, Doctor's Biome provides active cultures of L. salivarius, along with 14 other strains of probiotics with scientific backing in improving overall health and wellness.
