The present invention features methods for treating or reducing the severity of a microbial infection in an infant of a lactating mother. Compositions comprising food products fermented by Lactobacillus paracasei CBA L74, International Depository Accession Number LMG P-24778 are administered to a pregnant or lactating mother in order to treat or attenuate the severity of a microbial infection in her offspring.

A composition includes cells of Lactobacillus paracasei MCC1849 (NITE BP-01633). The composition is in the form of a pharmaceutical composition, a food, a drink, or a feed. The pharmaceutical composition can be used for treating an inflammatory disease, ulcer, food allergies, bronchial asthma, urticaria, pollinosis, anaphylactic shock or an opportunistic infection.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a fermented milk product, including sequentially performing a first step of mixing raw material milk and lactic acid bacteria to obtain a mixed liquid, and a second step of fermenting the mixed liquid, characterized by performing a step of adding a Paenibacillus-derived protease to the raw material milk and/or the mixed liquid (protease addition step) before the second step is completed. According to this manufacturing method, the hardness of the fermented milk product can be adjusted to a desired value while original smoothness of the fermented milk product is maintained.

A sweetener composition comprising xylose, a sugar alcohol and brown seaweed extract in solid form, preferably powdered or crystalline form. The sugar alcohol is preferably an erythritol and the brown seaweed extract is preferably obtained from Laminaria japonica. The sweetener composition can further comprise one or a combination of additional vitamins, minerals, probiotic cultures, and other plant-based extracts.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a cheese-flavored substance, including adding a bacterial cell disrupted product obtained by disrupting lactic acid bacteria and an enzyme to a milk raw material to cause a reaction. The present invention can provide a method for producing a cheese-flavored substance which can safely and efficiently produce a cheese-flavored substance having a more natural cheese flavor at low-cost with simple operation.
