Official Title: Effect of Alcohol Consumption With or Without a Multispecies Probiotic on Gut Permeability, Bacterial Translocation Neutrophil Function and Hangover Symptoms
Brief Summary:
Alcohol leads to a leaky gut and translocation of bacterial products. This may lead to inflammation and immune dysfunction as well as the typical hangover symptoms. Probiotics are able to restore gut permeability and decrease bacterial translocation. A multispecies probiotic may be able to restore gut permeability and decrease bacterial translocation as well as inflammation, immune dysfunction and hangover symptoms after alcohol consumption.
Specifically, gut permeability, bacterial translocation, inflammation, immune dysfunction and hangover symptoms in patients after alcohol ingestion +/- ingestion of a multispecies probiotic
