So, what is lactobacillus plantarum?

Lactobacillus plantarum is a versatile and hardy species of lactic acid bacteria that is commonly found in many fermented foods, including sauerkraut, kimchi, sourdough bread, and pickles. This probiotic bacterium has been shown to have several potential health benefits, such as improving digestion, boosting the immune system, and reducing inflammation. It can survive in a wide range of pH and temperature conditions, making it a popular choice for food fermentation. Additionally, lactobacillus plantarum has been researched for its potential use in developing new probiotic supplements and functional foods.
