Methods of making orally available softgels includes pre-wetting a probiotic with an edible oil to produce a wetted supplement, wherein the edible oil is present in a range of 25% to 75% by weight of a total weight of the probiotic and edible oil, heating the wetted supplement to a temperature in a range of 35? C. to 40? C., blending the wetted supplement and a molten chocolate component together to produce a liquid fill material, encapsulating the liquid fill material in a softgel coating to produce an orally available softgel, and cooling the orally available softgel to have a softgel capsule shell comprising 5% to 15% by weight water. The fill material is a solid at room temperature in the cooled orally available softgel.

The present disclosure relates to methods of modulating level of pathogenic E. coli (EHEC, EPEC, APEC) present in the gastrointestinal tract of an animal by administering saccharide compositions comprising an anhydro moiety. The presence/load with pathogenic E. coli strains can be assessed via the level of LEE and non-LEE pathogenic genes in the microbiome of the host animal.

The present disclosure relates to methods of modulating level of E. coli present in the gastrointestinal tract of an animal. Such modulation includes, for example, modulating the level of LEE and non-LEE pathogenic genes in the microbiome of the host animal. The present disclosure further relates to methods of modulating the virulence of pathogenic E. coli in the gastrointestinal tract of an animal by reducing the population of B. thetaiotaomicron in the gut microbiome of the animal.
