Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study objectives: Analysis of consequences of Hydro Colon Therapy plus probiotic intervention on GI microbiota and well being.

Study group: 78 subjects, inclusion criteria: 20-50yrs; under consultation at doctors or nutritionists because of claimed food inconveniences or Irritable Bowel Syndrome. exclusion criteria: antibiotics treatment and specified complex diseases.

Intervention: Hydro colon therapy 2- 5 washes within 3 weeks. probiotic intervention after end of Hydro colon therapy for 6 weeks ( DUOLAC® bacterial strains per capsule: Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus thermophiles, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, and Bifidobacterium breve, fructooligosaccharides, 200 µg folic acid, 2.50 µg vitamin B12 and 55 µg selenium (all amounts corresponding to 100% of daily requirement). Control group: Vitamin B complex: 10µg cobalamin, 450µg folic acid, and 55 µg selenium.

Sample collection: standardized Feces collection, T1, before colon hydrotherapy, T2, immediately after colon hydrotherapy 2-5 washes of fasting ; T3, after six weeks of probiotic or Control intervention Analysis: standardizes food frequency questionnaire before and after intervention.

Feces analysis based on 16 S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) PCR DGGE and quantitative PCR (qPCR) and bioinformatic analysis.
