Overview

Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BL-11 is a specific probiotic strain of the species Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis, used as a live biotherapeutic product and dietary supplement. It is a non-pathogenic, beneficial bacterium that colonizes the human gut and produces lactic and acetic acid[2][5]. Mechanistically, it supports intestinal health by modulating the gut microbiota composition—promoting beneficial bacteria (such as other Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli) while reducing strains associated with obesity and inflammation[3]. Clinical studies have shown that daily administration of this strain can significantly promote height growth in children with short stature or Prader-Willi syndrome over 12 weeks[1][3][4]. The proposed benefits are attributed to improved nutrient absorption, metabolic balance, enhanced bone growth signaling via gut-microbiome interactions, and overall support for healthy development[1][6].
