益生菌群除了提供基本的营养价值外，还显示出许多健康益处。它们共同维持胃肠道和免疫系统之间的微妙平衡。当这种平衡被破坏时，疾病和炎症就会产生。病原细菌对免疫系统的炎症和过度刺激被正常有益菌群的粘膜粘附竞争性地抑制。一个健康的胃肠道，有足够的粘液产生和适当的细菌定植，可以防止致病菌的过度生长，调节疾病过程，防止广泛的炎症性疾病。了解益生菌在维持健康方面的功能及其在预防疾病方面的重要性，有助于提高患者的整体健康水平。随着人们对有益微生物对维持健康和预防疾病的重要性的认识不断加深，益生菌可能在不久的将来被卫生保健从业者普遍用作一种治疗工具。本文综述了益生菌在保健和疾病预防方面的研究进展。
Probiotic microflora display numerous health benefits beyond providing basic nutritional value. They cooperatively maintain a delicate balance between the gastrointestinal tract and immune system. When this balance is disrupted, disease and inflammation result. Inflammation and over stimulation of the immune system by pathogenic bacteria are competitively inhibited by mucosal adherence of normal beneficial microflora. A healthy gastrointestinal tract with adequate mucus production and appropriate bacterial colonization prevents the overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria, modulates disease processes, and prevents widespread inflammatory disorders. The understanding of the function of probiotics in the maintenance of health and their importance in preventing disease serves to enhance the overall health of patients. With increasing understanding that beneficial microbes are required for health maintenance and disease prevention, probiotics may be commonly used as a therapeutic tool by health care practitioners in the not-too-distant future. This review presents a review of probiotics in health maintenance and disease prevention.
