Abstract

Abstract Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3 (LfME-3) has been proven to synthesize and secrete glutathione. A regular use of the foods fermented by it has shown a favourable influence on human lipid profiles and several antioxidant parameters. We administered the LfME-3-fermented kefir for 14 days to 43 human subjects and evaluated their serum with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer at the beginning and end of the test period. We found an increase of the peak at m/z 308 (corresponding to glutathione) and a new peak at m/z 1467.
