Summary. This study tested whether probiotics improve nutrient absorption in healthy children aged 14-18. Researchers randomly assigned 40 participants to receive probiotics or placebo for 10 weeks, measuring blood levels of vitamins D and A, calcium, zinc, and iron at baseline, 5 weeks, and 10 weeks. Probiotics significantly increased absorption biomarkers compared to placebo after 10 weeks of use.
