ADM, a global leader in innovative solutions from nature, has announced new findings from a recent clinical study investigating the effects of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp., lactis CECT 8145 (Priome MH), in both probiotic and heat-treated postbiotic forms in adult dogs. The study resulted with significant reduction in postprandial blood glucose (blood sugar) levels observed after eating a normal kibble meal, compared to dogs given placebo, during the weight loss phase. This suggests the potential role of the strain's postbiotic form in supporting metabolic health. Measurements were taken to evaluate several hormones, like GLP-1 and glucagon, which are important for multiple metabolic processes, with differences observed between sexes.
This clinical trial contributes to an expanding body of evidence supporting the role of postbiotics in pet health research, paving the way for further innovation in functional pet nutrition.
Sophie Nixon, head of R&D clinical research for pet & animal wellbeing at ADM, said, "These results mark an important step in advancing our understanding of the potential for postbiotics in metabolic health for pets, a health area that historically has been underserved by biotic ingredients. With growing interest in functional ingredients for companion animals, our strain Priome MH in its postbiotic form offers exciting capabilities as a dietary supplement to help maintain metabolic health in adult dogs."
Peter Jüsten, global vice president, R&D health & wellness at ADM, said, "While postbiotics have long been recognised for their role in gut health, postbiotics like our strain Priome MH are emerging as innovative tools to support metabolic function and overall well-being in companion animals. These findings add to a growing body of research showing that postbiotics can have targeted physiological effects."
