The laboratory experiment showed that the EM foodstuff promoted cancer cell death (Chui et al. 2006). All the bacteria contained in Nielsen\u2019s organic EM probiotic fall into the group of lactic acid bacteria in the broad sense of the term (since 1974, scientists have classified bifidobacteria in its own genus and, to be precise, they are actually just close relatives of the lactobacillales; Biavati et al. 2000). So what effect do lactic acid bacteria have on cancer development? Although they would be much needed, no clinical trials exist on the anti-carcinogenic action of lactobacillales, there are, however, some results of laboratory tests conducted on animals and cells, confirming such effect. Studies have demonstrated that lactic acid bacteria decompose potentially carcinogenic substances, while also inhibiting tumorous and metastatic growth (Rafter 2002). Lactobacillales are also useful during chemotherapy. A defence against the bad side effects of chemotherapy requires antioxidants, as such treatment strongly oxidises the organism. According to the measurements performed at the University of Ljubljana, the rH of probiotic efficient microorganisms ranges between 17 and 19, which means that such beverages are highly antioxidative (rH values lower than 28 denote antioxidant properties). It has been proven that lactobacillales have a strong antioxidant impact even in physiological processes (Choi et al. 2006). Sources: Ostan, I. (2016): Blessings from the Gut. Koper: Institut.O.
