Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the intervention effects of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis strain BLa80 in promoting growth and development (including gut microbiota and physical growth and development) of healthy infants and young children across different age groups, enhancing immune function, improving allergy incidence, and analyzing the safety of BLa80 in relation to infant growth and development, allergy incidence, and gut microbiota.
