Sophie Holowacz tells us about the Lactibiane 2.5 g clinical study

What is the PiLeJe clinical study all about ?

It is the first clinical study carried out in France on the effectiveness of probiotics in the treatment of functional bowel disorders and related symptoms (gas, bloating, abdominal pain …). This study dealt specifically with the Lactibiane Référence probiotic mix.

When and how was it carried out ?

It was carried out between September 2004 and January 2006 in collaboration with Prof. Marteau and 23 general practitioners. 100 volunteers with functional bowel disorders took part in this study.

What are the final results ?

The PiLeJe clinical study revealed that the consumption of Lactibiane Référence was accompanied by a 43% reduction in abdominal pain linked to functional bowel disorders. Subjects also experience improved digestive comfort, with a reduction in bloating and flatulence. These are therefore very encouraging results for subjects with functional bowel disorders !
