This study aims to examine changes in salivary immunoglobulin A (SIgA) levels and subjective health status when varying the intake frequency of Lactobacillus B240, in order to determine whether reducing the frequency of intake can still produce beneficial effects. By doing so, the study seeks to clarify the optimal intake method for athletes, thereby reducing both the financial burden and the burden of intake on the athletes.
Efficacy
Changes in salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) concentration, secretion rate, and secretion volume, measured after acute high-intensity exercise before intake and during the Lactobacillus intake period (week 1, week 2, week 3, and week 4).

Intake of one Lactobacillus pentosus strain B240 tablet per day (containing two times ten to the power of nine CFU of Lactobacillus B240) for 28 consecutive days.
Intake of one Lactobacillus pentosus strain B240 tablet (containing two times ten to the power of nine CFU of Lactobacillus B240) three days per week, and placebo tablets on the remaining four days, for 28 consecutive days.
Intake of one placebo tablet per day for 28 consecutive days.
