Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the food supplement called Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) may help boost the effectiveness of the nasal flu vaccine. Preliminary data from several studies of healthy volunteers suggest that LGG boosts the immune response to vaccines. Fifty-two subjects will be recruited into the study, all will receive the nasal flu vaccine. Twenty-six will receive capsules that contain LGG, 26 will receive placebo capsules. Blood and nasal specimens will be collected weekly for four weeks and at eight weeks to evaluate the initial mucosal and systemic immune response to the immunization. This study will provide preliminary data on whether the immune response of healthy adults to the nasal influenza vaccine can be boosted by LGG.
