Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of OPTI-BIOME™ (Bacillus subtilis MB40), a probiotic supplement, on bloating, gas and abdominal discomfort symptoms in otherwise healthy adults.
Participants experiencing recurrent gastrointestinal symptoms in this double-blind, randomized, controlled trial will receive either a commercially-available probiotic dietary supplement or placebo. The investigators hypothesize that participants in the probiotic dietary supplement group will experience greater improvement in their gastrointestinal symptoms than participants in the placebo group.
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 6-week study of a probiotic for abdominal discomfort and bloating in healthy subjects.
Study hypotheses is that Antiparasitic therapy in patients with chronic diarrhea after travel to a developing country, with a negative stool findings, will be significantly effective in eliminating diarrhea and other gastro-intestinal complaints compared to similar patients receiving placebo.
We are conducting a study to learn if probiotics, which are live bacteria found in food like yogurt and cheese, will improve symptoms of abdominal pain. Individuals participating in this study will take probiotic pills to see if this affects the expression of certain pain receptors in the intestines that relate to pain sensation. Biopsies will be taken from the colon before subjects take the probiotic pills. Subjects will then be given one of two different types of probiotic pills to take for 3-4 weeks. After taking the supplements, more biopsies will be collected to see if any changes have taken places. This study requires one screening visit and two clinic visits to UNC hospital. Subjects will also complete daily diary cards for 2 weeks during the study to record their symptoms and also collect 2 stool samples.
