LGG® is a registered trademark of Chr. Hansen A/S.

Immunological Use: Immune support: LGG® is immune modulating with the lower dose range (1 billion – 10 billion CFU) supporting immune response and has been shown to reduce upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) and colds (particularly in children).
 
Allergy: Higher doses of LGG®(20 billion CFU ) have been shown to up regulate anti-inflammatory interleukins (IL-10) and down regulate ImmunoglobulinE (IgE) synthesis.7 In addition to a significant amount of research in infants and prenatally, a 2015 clinical trial showed a reduction in peanut allergy in children when used in conjunction with a desensitisation program. Metagenics supports Professor Mimi Tang’s research in childhood food allergy at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute and are product suppliers for a follow-up study in peanut allergy.
 
Gastrointestinal Use: Diarrhoea:LGG® (10-20 billion CFU) reduces the frequency, severity and duration of diarrhoea – viral, travellers and also antibiotic associated.

Microbiome Use: Regeneration of core commensal (native) gut flora: More recently DNA sequencing of the microbiome has shown LGG® has the ability to influence and regenerate commensal bacterial families.

Prenatal Use: LGG® has a wide body of evidence showing reduced allergy, eczema and atopy when taken prenatally. More recent research has shown support for maternal glucose control, maternal and childhood obesity and reduced incidence of childhood behavioural complaints (when taken during pregnancy and infancy)
