  7. Characteristics of good bacteria that can be used as probiotic agent, including: 1. Having antimicrobial activities 2. Resistant to digestion tract selection system 3. Having anti carcinogenic activities 4. Able to colonize in the intestinal tract 5. Able to improve intestinal absorption

  8. Main functions of probiotic food : • Maintain a balance of intestinal bacteria • Reduce blood cholesterol level • Prevent the formation of cancer cells • Helps the digestion of lactose (sugar in milk)

  9. Benefits of Probiotics 1. Maintaining a balance between pathogenic bacteria and good bacteria in the intestine 2. Help clean up the tract and produce vitamins 3. Help liver function in detoxifying 4. Prevent diarrhea, constipation and allergies 5. Reduce the possibility of allergic reactions

  15. Conclusion Probiotics are bacterias that are helpful to the human health especially for the human digestive system. Consumption of Probiotics will help the digestive system to funtion at its best.
