Changes in the relative abundance of each predominant bacteria during a year in subjects consuming fermented milk products containing Lacticaseibacillus paracasei strain Shirota (LcS) < 3 or ≥ 3 days/week over the past 10-year period. Independent differences between groups in terms of dispersions of changes in the abundance were assessed by Levene’s tests. P values with < 0.05 are shown.
