Probiotics, Prebiotics, Synbiotics, Human Gut, MicrobiotaAbstract
The health benefits proclaimed by probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics have been the subject of extensive research for the last few decades. Researchers focused on searching the role of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics that help in maintaining gastrointestinal tract health. Many studies stated that probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics supplementation is beneficial in maintaining optimal microflora in the gut that ultimately helps in the prevention of numerous diseases associated with nutritional health. This review article portrays various roles played by probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics in maintaining the beneficial microbiota of the human gut.
