Description

Flavia Al-Akel and co-authors review the probiotic bacterium Streptococcus salivarius for child health and disease prevention. The review covers oral, dental, and respiratory uses in children. A broad search found 613 publications, and 15 studies met the rules for inclusion.

Three strains appear in the evidence, and all show benefits in child conditions. One strain given as tablets or powder for three months cut black stains, plaque, and tooth decay. A second strain cut throat infections and a range of other illnesses, from ear infection to flu and gut infection. A third strain also shows promise. The authors find the approach effective, convenient, and cost effective for prevention in children.
