Lactobacillus Acidophilus

This is a beneficial bacterium that lives in the intestine and is part of the normal flora. It is found in fermented milk and dairy products and also in fermented vegetables, which is why it is added to yogurt. It is a strain that is commonly used to help reduce lactose intolerance. Lactobacillus Acidophilus is beneficial for those who suffer from lactose intolerance because it produces enzymes that can help digest the lactose in milk, which is a form of sugar.
