State of the immune system in women using the “Provag” probiotic

Lactobacilli are  widely used  in clinical  practice as probiotics, biologically  active  additives  and probiotic products for functional nutrition. Some  probiotics can  be considered as bacterial vaccines  due  to induction of immune response, accompanied by production of specific antibodies. The...
