Abstract: The invention is a body dusting powder for external use, containing a live yet dormant bacterial culture which may consist of various strains of bacteria knownto inhabit the intestinal tract of the human body, particularly strains of lactobacillus and bifidus, and including especially, lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium, and also including a suitable growth medium for same. When the invention is applied to external areas of the human body such as feet, hands, underarms, scalp, rectal and genital areas, for example, bacterial cultures contained in the powder are revived in the presence of moisture due to perspiration, and the cultures grow and multiply, feeding on the growth medium provided, producing lactic acid and other antibiotic substances, thereby inhibiting other micro-organisms normally found growing in these areas, as well as those found in the air which may alight upon these areas. When applied to the human or animal body, the invention prevents and controls the growth of undesirable organisms such as cornybacterium, propionibacterium acnes, diptheroid bacteria in general, staphylococci, streptocooci, coliforms, and fungae and yeast such as candida or tinea pedis. The invention inhibits the spread of sexually transmitted and contagious diseases which may be due to organisms which enter the skin and the body from the air, which might otherwise be transmitted through body to body contact.
