In this study, a 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-induced mouse model of intestinal damage was established to comparatively evaluate the effects of six edible <i>Bifidobacterium</i> species. Our results revealed distinct responses in the protective efficacy of <i>Bifidobacterium</i> against 5-FU-induced microenvironmental damage. Notably, intervention with <i>Bifidobacterium longum</i> subsp. <i>longum</i> (BLL) attenuated 5-FU-induced weight loss and reductions in food intake, while also alleviating diarrhea. BLL supplementation was associated with improved intestinal barrier-related gene expression, reduced inflammatory responses in colonic tissues, and altered gut microbiota composition. These protective effects were accompanied by shifts in the relative abundance of specific bacterial taxa, including <i>Enterococcus</i>, <i>Ruminococcaceae UCG_014</i>, and <i>Ruminococcus 2</i>, as well as changes in cholic acid and deoxycholic acid levels. In contrast, <i>B. bifidum</i> and <i>B. adolescentis</i> supplementation was associated with lower endpoint survival and less favorable intestinal outcomes.
