Background and hypothesis:
Our preclinical evidence shows that phospholipid-rich milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced increases in gut permeability and pro-inflammatory cytokines. MFGM also attenuates inflammation in association with a prebiotic and/or antimicrobial
Probiotics are "live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, can confer health benefits on the host". Probiotics, which beneficially affect the host by improving the intestinal microbial balance, may affect the immune response, thus boosting the body system to combat against
