Acidophilus is a general name for a group of probiotics, often added to milk or sold as a capsule, which contains one or more of the following bacteria which aid in digestion: * Lactobacillus acidophilus (A) * Lactobacillus casei (C) * Lactobacillus bulgaricus (L) * Bifidobacterium species (B) * Streptococcus thermophilus Only L. acidophilus acidophilus is the true species, but many producers (especially in the U.S.) use it as a more generic name for mixtures of bacteria, one of the which is L. acidophilus.
