Effects of Probiotics on Maintaining Human Health

Abstract

The purpose of this publication is to review the beneficial impact of probiotics and their role in humans’ diet. Besides, introducing the dietary sources and the role of prebiotics is included in this manuscript, as well. Pro- and prebiotics are significant also in health maintenance, they have a good influence on immunity, they decrease the occurrence of several chronic diseases, accordingly, applying them in healthy diet is not negligible either. Hopefully, my manuscript contributes to popularizing functional foods, mainly fermented products. It also meant the motivation to create this review.
