1. Probiotic Properties: Some strains of Lactococcus, especially Lactococcus lactis, are used as probiotics. Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, can confer health benefits to the host. Lactococcus can contribute to the balance of the gut microbiota and may have positive effects on digestion and immune function.

2. Fermentation and Food Production: Lactococcus species are important in the fermentation of certain foods, particularly dairy products. They play a key role in the production of yogurt, cheese, and other fermented dairy items. In this context, their impact on health is often associated with the nutritional quality and digestibility of the fermented products.

3. Immunomodulatory Effects: Some research suggests that certain strains of Lactococcus may have immunomodulatory effects, potentially influencing the immune system in a way that could be beneficial for health.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
