Tag: Probiotic butter

Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when consumed in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit to the host, and a probiotic butter incorporates these beneficial bacteria into a popular dairy product. It is made by fermenting high-quality cream with live bacterial cultures, resulting in a distinctly tangy and nutrient-rich spread.

According to a 2024 study in *MDPI*, both probiotic butter and buttermilk maintained high probiotic cell counts throughout a 90-day storage period, suggesting a good adaptation of the microorganisms. This makes probiotic butter a functional food that combines the benefits of probiotics with a popular dairy product.
