Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Jim Arsenis discuss the following:

• Do probiotics exist naturally in breastmilk?
• How do they get there?
• What are the benefits for mother and baby?
• How can they be low or absent in breastmilk and what are the consequences?
• Can supplementation with a specific probiotic strain isolated from breastmilk help?
