“…The Bifidobacteria have been used also in microbial food supplements destined to infants (Milner & Roberfroid, 1999), individually (Langhendries et al, 1995) or along with Lactobacilli (Marteau et al, 1997;Jahromi et al, 2015). Other microorganisms have probiotic properties such as: Escherichia coli Nissle, Streptococcus thermophilus, Enterococcus francium, Saccharomyces boulardii, Propionibacterium, Leuconostoc, and Pediococcus, however some of these strains can be pathogenic (Seno et al, 2005).…”

The principal role of diet is to supply adequate nutrients providing energy to sustain physiologic functions and well-being. Every foods and feeds are functional and consumption of bioactive molecules is facilitated by diet. All probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics are functional components able to exercise significant influences on human and animal wellbeing. Emphasizing these positive activities is one possible approach for improving the health image of meat and plants and developing functional products. Discovering of new prebiotic/probiotic/synbiotic functional foods is linked to the interest of the food industry to renew constantly through introduction of products with enhanced nutritional value, but also with health advantage for consumers. This review provides potential benefits of representative bioactive compounds on human and animal health and an overview of meat and plant-based functional products. Besides the increase of scientific reports, there is a necessary need to update consumers of the feeding value of novel functional foods.

“…Alleviation of lactose intolerance has been one of the first effects of probiotics to be demonstrated (Marteau et al 1997). The best evidence has been obtained with yoghurt bacteria that contain high levels of lactase that is rapidly released when the bacteria are lysed by bile salts in the gastrointestinal tract (Marteau et al 1990).…”

“…The best evidence has been obtained with yoghurt bacteria that contain high levels of lactase that is rapidly released when the bacteria are lysed by bile salts in the gastrointestinal tract (Marteau et al 1990). Other probiotics containing lactase such as Lactobacillus acidophilus may also be active but their higher resistance to bile probably explains why they are less efficient than yoghurt bacteria (Marteau et al 1997). In clinical practice, replacement of milk by yoghurt or fermented dairy products allows better digestion and/or decreases diarrhoea and other intolerance symptoms in subjects with lactose intolerance, in children with diarrhoea, and in subjects with short bowel syndrome (Arrigoni et al 1994;Marteau et al 1997).…”

Probiotic strains which are rapidly destroyed in the duodenum such as yoghurt bacteria, or lactococci could be used as vectors for enzymes or oral immunisation (Mercenier et al 2000).…”

Probiotics and intestinal health effects: a clinical perspective

Probiotics are viable non-pathogenic micro-organisms which, when ingested, exert a positive influence on host health or physiology. We have critically analysed the evidence for the efficacy of specific probiotic strains in human gastrointestinal diseases. The best evidence can be obtained with randomised controlled trials which avoid bias. Good evidence has been obtained with several strains in the prevention or treatment of antibiotic-associated disorders, in the treatment (and to a lesser extent prevention) of gastroenteritis and acute diarrhoea and in the alleviation of lactose intolerance. We also analysed the recent randomised controlled trials performed in patients with Clostridium difficile or Helicobacter pylori, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, non-ulcer dyspepsia and colon cancer.

“…The mechanisms leading to the better digestion of the lactose contained in yogurt than that contained in milk have been extensively studied. A role for viable LAB has been theorized, because the digestibility of lactose from yogurt is higher than that from pasteurized yogurt (42,43). Two mechanisms, which do not exclude each other, have been demonstrated: digestion of lactose in the gut lumen by the lactase brought by the yogurt bacteria, and slower intestinal delivery or transit time of yogurt as compared to milk (42,43).…”

Probiotics are nonpathogenic microorganisms which, when ingested, exert a positive influence on the health or physiology of the host. Their mechanisms of action and effects are now studied using the same pharmacological approach as for drugs. This article summarizes and comments on evidence for the positive effects of probiotics in various clinical situations. Substantial evidence can be achieved when randomized controlled trials or meta-analyses show positive results. The clinical situations studied include prevention or treatment of antibiotic-associated disorders, gastroenteritis, and diarrhea, lactose intolerance, intestinal infections and colonization by pathogenic bacteria (including Helicobacter pylori and Clostridium difficile), traveler's diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colonic cancer, urogenital infections and tumors, allergy (especially atopic eczema), vaccination, and cholesterol lowering. Current probiotics have an excellent safety record--another topic discussed in this article.
