Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to learn about the effect of consuming a probiotic on the microbiota associated with immune health and inflammation in healthy women and men after 6 weeks of intervention.
The main questions to answer are:
- To study changes in the intestinal microbiota associated with immune health and inflammation related to probiotic intake.
- To evaluate changes in salivary cortisol after ingestion of the probiotic.
- To compile the number and intensity of catarrhal episodes suffered by the participants along the study.
For this purpose, a randomized, double blind parallel study has been designed.
Target sample size is 60 subjects.
Participants will be allocated in two groups for 6 weeks:
- Experimental group (n=30): daily consumption of one probiotic capsule.
- Placebo group (n=30): daily consumption of one placebo capsule.
Primary Outcome
Fecal microbiota
