In a randomized, double-blind clinical trial (n = 49), daily intake of 3 × 1010 CFU of LF61 for 8 weeks increased serum levels of the antimicrobial peptide LL-37 by 12.3% (p < 0.05), and IgA, IgG, and IgM by 18.7%, 15.2%, and 9.8%, respectively (p < 0.05).
This result measures the body's own LL-37. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
