研究概览

简要总结

The aim of the present prospective study is to investigate whether the consumption of certain probiotic strains over a six-month winter/spring season would be able to affect the incidence and duration of upper respiratory tract infections, in otherwise healthy children as well as determining whether a combination of two strains would perform differently from a single strain version.
