Lactobacillus Johnsonii Probiotic: A Key Modulator for Immune & Metabolic Balance

Product Overview

Lactobacillus johnsonii is a prominent probiotic strain within the Lactobacillus acidophilus group, naturally residing in the human gastrointestinal tract and extensively studied for its systemic health benefits. As a crucial modulator of the host immune system and metabolic processes, this strain represents a cutting-edge ingredient for advanced wellness formulations. We supply a high-potency, human-residential Lactobacillus johnsonii strain, backed by compelling scientific evidence. To meet the demands of high-efficacy supplement development, we offer this specialized probiotic in a potent single specification of 200 billion CFU.

Technical Advantages

Our Lactobacillus johnsonii is distinguished by its direct interaction with host immune function and metabolism:

Immune System Regulation: Demonstrates a unique ability to interact with dendritic cells and modulate immune responses, promoting a balanced Th1/Th2 response and supporting the body's natural defenses.

Cholesterol Metabolism Support: Research indicates its potential to support healthy cholesterol levels by interfering with the reabsorption of cholesterol in the gut and promoting its excretion.

High-Intensity 200B CFU Formula: This high-potency offering is calibrated based on preclinical and clinical research to ensure a sufficient dose for exerting measurable systemic effects on immunity and metabolism.

Barrier Function Enhancement: Contributes to the strengthening of the intestinal epithelial barrier, reducing intestinal permeability and supporting overall gut health.

Human-Residential Strain: As a native inhabitant of the human gut, it is exceptionally well-adapted to exert targeted effects within the human host.

Application Scenarios

Lactobacillus johnsonii is ideally suited for sophisticated health formulations targeting systemic wellness:

Immune Support & Modulation Supplements: The core ingredient in advanced probiotics designed for year-round immune foundation support, rather than just seasonal aid.

Cardiometabolic Health Formulas: Used in supplements aimed at supporting healthy cholesterol metabolism and overall cardiovascular wellness.

Systemic Health & Longevity Products: Ideal for premium dietary supplements focused on foundational health, healthy aging, and systemic balance through gut-immune axis modulation.

Professional-Grade Nutraceuticals: Targeted for the practitioner channel where evidence-based, systemic-acting probiotic strains are in high demand.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What are the most well-documented benefits of Lactobacillus johnsonii?

L. johnsonii is best known for its dual-action benefits: significantly modulating and supporting the immune system and assisting in the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels through gut-mediated mechanisms.

2. How does L. johnsonii support immune health differently from other strains?

Its uniqueness lies in its direct and studied interaction with key immune cells (like dendritic cells) at the gut level, helping to "educate" and balance the immune system, rather than merely providing a general boost.

3. Why is a 200B CFU count specified for this strain?

Given that its primary benefits are systemic (affecting entire body systems like immunity and metabolism), a higher CFU count is aligned with research protocols and is considered necessary to deliver a clinically meaningful effect.

4. Is Lactobacillus johnsonii safe for long-term use?

Yes. As a native component of a healthy human gut microbiome, it is generally recognized as safe for continuous consumption. Our strain is thoroughly characterized for safety.

5. How does L. johnsonii help manage cholesterol?

It is thought to incorporate cholesterol into its cellular membrane during growth and also interferes with the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids, leading to increased cholesterol excretion from the body.

6. What is the shelf life and optimal storage condition?

The bulk powder has a shelf life of 24 months when stored in its original sealed packaging at or below -18°C (freezer conditions). This is critical for maintaining the high viability of this potent strain.

7. Can this strain be used in products for children?

While it is a human-residential strain, specific pediatric applications should be based on further clinical evidence. We recommend its use primarily in adult-focused formulations unless specific pediatric data is available for your product development.

8. Is your strain non-GMO and allergen-free?

Yes, our Lactobacillus johnsonii is non-GMO project verified. The bulk biomass is produced without the use of major allergens. A Certificate of Analysis confirming this is provided with every batch.

9. Do you provide the specific strain designation and supporting research?

Yes, we provide full strain identification and a comprehensive technical dossier to our B2B partners, which includes summaries of relevant immunological and metabolic studies.

10. Can L. johnsonii be blended with other probiotics?

It can be effectively used in synergistic blends. For example, combining it with L. plantarum could offer a comprehensive approach targeting both immune health and antioxidant support.
