Probiotics, live microorganisms found in fermented foods and supplements, are crucial for gut health and immunity. They enhance gut flora and aid in digestion, nutrient absorption, and pathogen protection. By regulating immune responses and producing antimicrobial substances, probiotics boost immunity. Research suggests their role in preventing gastrointestinal and immune-related conditions, and improving mental health. Choosing the right probiotics and incorporating them into the diet is essential. Ongoing research promises more targeted interventions for individual health needs.
