32Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate potential beneficial effects of Kefir drink (Synbio Tech Inc., Kaohsiung City, Taiwan) on fatigue and ergogenic functions following physiological challenge. Methods: 16 male subjects, 8 in each group, were divided into two groups according to the principle of maximal oxygen uptake, which were (1) first-stage placebo and second-stage Kefir group (hereinafter referred to as group A). (2) The first phase of Kefeier, the second phase of the placebo group (hereinafter referred to as group B), after 4 weeks of supplementation, the performance and fatigue resistance tests were carried out in sequence, including: treadmill aerobic endurance exhaustion time, and fixation Exercise time and intensity challenge changes in blood lactate, blood urea nitrogen concentration and creatine kinase activity, as well as differences in body composition before and after supplementation. After the first phase of the test is completed, the four weeks of emptying are performed. And after adding the crossover sample, perform four weeks of supplementation and testing again.
28 days supplementation kefir drink (prepared by inoculating pasteurized 9.2% reconstituted skim milk with powder kefir starter culture and fermented at 37 °C for 16 h. The fermented milk was then pasteurized at 100 °C for 30 min and freeze dried. The powder kefir starter culture used for inoculation was composed of defined lactic acid bacteria strains which contains Lactobacillus fermentum DSM 32784 (LF26), L. helveticus DSM 32787 (LH43), L. paracasei DSM 32785 (LPC12), L. rhamnosus DSM 32786 (LRH10), and Streptococcus thermophilus DSM 32788 (ST30)), 200ml/day
