There’s a pungent cloud of hype and hope around probiotics—and researchers have long tried to clear the air about what the bowel-blasting products can ( and mostly can’t) do. Now, a new set of studies offers a gut-check on funky claims, ripping current probiotics as likely ineffective at boosting health and potentially even causing harm. In the two studies, both published this week in the journal [I]Cell[/I], Israeli researchers report that bacteria taken in supplements, aka probiotics, often have little impact on healthy people’s innards and, at worst, can elbow out native populations of microbes.
