While the findings suggest that early microbiome modulation may have lasting benefits, researchers note that the observational nature of the follow-up and substantial attrition limit conclusions about causality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2072-6643\/18\/4\/687\">https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2072-6643\/18\/4\/687<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 10-year follow-up of a randomized controlled trial reports that early supplementation with Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 in infants with functional gastrointestinal disorders such as colic and constipation was associated with a markedly lower prevalence of functional abdominal pain (FAP) at age 10 compared to placebo (13.1% vs 80.2%, p &lt; 0.001).
