Safety

Bifidobacterium longum occurs naturally in the human gut and is associated with good digestive health. Toxicological studies have been conducted on Bifidobacterium longum, including the BB536 strain, since the 1970s on a variety of human subjects including infants, pregnant women and the elderly. These studies, and a review by the World Health Organization, have confirmed its safety. Morinaga BB536 has been granted FDA GRAS status in the United States for food applications, and BB536-containing yogurt and milk have been approved as FOSHU (foods for specific health use) in Japan.
