About Bacteriophage Blend
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria, NOT probiotics. The named phages (LH01/LL5/LL12/T4D; Myoviridae/Siphoviridae) are the PreforPro cocktail, marketed as a 'prebiotic' that reduces E. coli to make room for beneficial bacteria. Human evidence is minimal: one small manufacturer-linked pilot suggesting microbiome shifts. Consolidated to a single low-evidence entry mainly to resolve label names and kill the 'not in our database' flag. Graded low.
