Lactobacillus rhamnosus - Feed Ingredient
Lactobacillus rhamnosus is a species of lactic acid-producing bacteria commonly used as a probiotic in both human and animal nutrition. It is known for its ability to survive the acidic environment of the stomach and adhere to the intestinal lining, promoting beneficial microbial balance.
In equine nutrition, L. rhamnosus is typically included in probiotic or digestive health supplements in dried form. It may support gut health by enhancing hindgut microbial stability, aiding digestion, and contributing to immune modulation, especially during periods of stress, dietary change, or antibiotic use.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Lactobacillus rhamnosus as an ingredient.
