What it is

Streptococcus salivarius is a type of bacteria naturally found in the human mouth. It is often used as a probiotic, meaning it is a live microorganism that may provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add S. salivarius to foods, particularly dairy and frozen desserts, as a probiotic to potentially support gut health. It is often found in yogurts, ice creams, and other frozen treats.

Health notes

S. salivarius is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Probiotics like S. salivarius are studied for their potential role in supporting digestive and immune health, though research is ongoing. The World Health Organization (WHO) has established guidelines for evaluating probiotics, but specific regulatory limits for S. salivarius in food are not set by bodies like JECFA or EFSA.
