To develop a probiotic that provides the host with folate, we administered folate-overproducing bifidobacteria to Wistar rats with induced folate deficiency.The experiment showed that bifidobacteria exert both the beneficial effects of probiotics and produce folate in vivo, positively affecting the folate status of rats.
