Shaping the Future of Probiotics and Prebiotics

Updated on

This review covers emerging and anticipated trends in probiotic and prebiotic science. Developments in microbiome science are advancing probiotic and prebiotic research, expending the range of candidate probiotic strains and prebiotic substrates. Significant change may be ahead in the field, with novel types, mechanisms, and applications currently under study.  The years ahead may bring shifts in scientific understandings as well as nutritional and healthcare applications of probiotic and other biotic interventions.
