Live strains of Lactococcus sp. HY 49, Lactobacillus casei HY 2782, and Bifidobacterium longum HY 8001 maintained in nutritious foods, such as yogurt, imbue them with prophylactic and/or therapeutic properties. Such foods are beneficial in the prevention and/or treatment of gastritis, duodenal and gastric ulcers caused by infection from Helicobacter pylori (also referred to as H. pylori). The properties of these bacteria are boosted by the addition of egg yolk containing antibodies specific to H. pylori antigen derived from "fractionated H. pylori". |
