Functional constipation affects 5-20% of the population. Intestinal microflora has a significant impact on intestinal motility. Probiotics can improve intestinal motility. Based on a summary of 11 randomized, double-blind studies with a total of 464 subjects, it has been concluded that probiotics can increase intestinal transit time. [1] Bifidobacterium lactis stran bacteria are the most effective in this regard.<\/h6>\n

In a 2-week study involving 100 subjects (average age \u2013 44), one group received a dose of B.lactis (17.2 billion CFU, n=33), one received a low dose (1.8 billion CFU, n=33), and one was a placebo group (n=34). After 2 weeks the overall intestinal transit time, i.e. the time it takes for the intestines to empty, had significantly decreased in the two B.lactis groups, while remaining unchanged for the placebo group.

Probiotics speed up intestinal transit because they reduce the formation of methanogens, which can hinder intestinal transit by producing methane, which, in turn, blocks intestinal motor function or motility. It has been found that people with slow intestinal transit have more methane producing bacteria in the intestines as compared to healthy individuals. Furthermore, probiotics promote fermentation processes in the intestines thus boosting the peristalsis, i.e. the frequency of contraction, of the large intestine thus speeding up transit time.
