A newly published randomized controlled trial has confirmed the efficacy of INNERIM®, AB-BIOTICS’ probiotic blend designed for adults aged 50+, in improving both constipation and stress.
Published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements, the study evaluated 70 healthy adults between 50–80 years old. Participants who took INNERIM® for 12 weeks experienced:
- Improved bowel regularity: Significant increases in weekly bowel movements compared to placebo.
- Healthier stool consistency: Scores improved from a constipated range to within the healthy range.
- Reduced stress: Measured by the validated Perceived Stress Scale, stress levels decreased significantly after 84 days, with fewer participants reporting “moderate” stress compared to placebo.
Designed Specifically for Older Adults
INNERIM® contains two clinically documented probiotic strains, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum KABP® 031 and KABP® 032. What sets it apart is its exclusive focus on adults 50+: all clinical research supporting INNERIM® has been conducted in this age group, ensuring the formula’s targeted efficacy and safety.
This is especially relevant as aging brings unique challenges:
- Constipation is one of the most common digestive complaints in older adults.
- Stress and its gut–brain connection can further disrupt digestive balance.
- Immunosenescence (the gradual decline of the immune system with age) makes immune support critical.
A Growing Body of Evidence
This latest trial builds on previous research showing INNERIM®’s benefits in older populations. Earlier clinical studies have demonstrated that the probiotic blend:
- Improves gastrointestinal transit and nutritional status in elderly adults.
- Enhances systemic immunity, with the potential to support vaccine responses in older populations.
Together, these findings strengthen the scientific foundation for INNERIM® as a multi-target solution supporting digestive health, immunity, and overall well-being in adults over 50.
Healthy Aging, Naturally
With constipation, stress, and immune decline ranking among the top concerns for older populations, INNERIM® offers a natural, microbiome-based solution to promote healthy aging. Its documented benefits span gastrointestinal health, mental well-being, and immunity—making it a comprehensive daily support for adults over 50.
“Probiotics such as our INNERIM® blend offer an attractive, safe, and effective alternative for older people managing altered bowel habits,” says Dr. Maria Rodriguez-Palmero Seuma, Medical Director at AB-BIOTICS and co-author of the study.
