1. Probiotic Effects: Many Lactobacillales, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species, are used as probiotics. Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer health benefits to the host. Probiotic Lactobacillales can contribute to the balance of the gut microbiota, promoting digestive health and supporting the immune system.

2. Digestive Health: Lactobacillales, particularly certain species of Lactobacillus, play a key role in the fermentation of carbohydrates, producing lactic acid. This fermentation process can help maintain the acidic environment of the gut, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, and contribute to overall digestive health.

3. Immune System Modulation: Some strains of Lactobacillales have been shown to modulate the immune system. They may enhance the activity of immune cells and influence the production of certain cytokines, helping to regulate immune responses and promote a balanced immune function.

4. Prevention of Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea: Probiotic Lactobacillales, when taken in conjunction with antibiotics, may help prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Antibiotics can disrupt the balance of the gut microbiota, and probiotics can help restore this balance.

5. Women's Health: Lactobacillales, particularly Lactobacillus species, are important components of the vaginal microbiota in women. They contribute to the maintenance of an acidic environment in the vagina, which helps protect against infections and supports overall vaginal health.

6. Fermentation of Foods: Lactobacillales are widely used in the fermentation of various foods, including yogurt, sauerkraut, and kimchi. Fermented foods containing these bacteria can contribute to gut health and may provide additional nutritional benefits.

• 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
