Lacticaseibacillus (Lactobacillus) paracasei is a type of probiotic bacteria that is commonly found in the human and animal gut, as well as in fermented foods and dairy products. It is known for its ability to break down food, absorb nutrients, and fight off harmful organisms that might cause diseases.

It produces L-lactate by fermentation of glucose. Lactate induces enterocytes to store lipids through its conversion to malonyl-CoA
