“The results presented here confer to strain B. bifidum CECT 7366 the status of a probiotic bacterium with functional activity against H. pylori,” write the researchers. “Human clinical trials must be performed before commercialization of this strain can be approved.”

Really?

Dannon brand Activia yogurt already has B. bifidum.

Unless there is a patent issue on the CECT 7366 strain, why not just use this strain?

A 95% inhibition of Class A carcinogen h.pylori would be a colossal breakthrough.
