Therapeutics perspectives of incredible probiotics

Author: Kirandeep Kaur, Amandeep Singh, Gurmeet Singh

Category: Pharmaceutics

Abstract:

The health benefits provided by probiotics are a matter of exploration from last years. With the help of various mechanisms, a single probiotic can only be applicable for a certain clinical condition because a particular probiotic is effective against a specific disease. The information regarding the clinical data in various diseases is not sufficient. A literature search was performed by focusing on the mechanisms by which probiotics acting on various diseases, the safety of probiotics and clinical data which provide huge information regarding the efficacy and safety of probiotics. In case of skin problems such as skin aging and eczema, probiotics act by antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity; in gastrointestinal tract (GIT) problem, probiotics act by balancing the GIT flora. Probiotics cause the mucosal immune system to secrete the protective immunoglobulin (Ig) in inflammatory bowel disease. It also treats urinary tract infection and vaginal infections by improving microbial growth. The clinical trial provides various evidence regarding the beneficial health effects of probiotics. This evidence confirms the use of probiotics in the prevention and treatment of medical conditions. Using probiotics as novel therapeutic strategies, it concluded that its contribution to treating different diseases is a safe and more efficient way.
