    Radiation therapy and chemotherapy often cause gastrointestinal mucosal damage in patients with cancer, and the digestive and absorption functions are affected. The damaged mucosa also lacks resistance to bacteria, and supplementing with probiotics can help digestion and absorption, protect the intestinal mucosa, and improve resistance to bacteria. , Has great benefits for cancer patients.
