[Increasing the effectiveness of the therapeutic action of probiotics]

The problems of the optimization of the therapeutic action of probiotics are discussed. Their use in combination with vitamin-enriched food additives is recommended. Balsams "Beryozka" and "Zolotoi koren" have been found to promote the adhesive capacity of bifidobacteria and lactobacteria. At the same time "Zolotoi koren" also enhances the functional activity of lactobacilli. The increase of the adhesive capacity and metabolic activity of automicroflora on one hand and the pronounced biostimulating effect of the balsams on the other hand may ensure a sufficiently high level of the colonization resistance of the body.
