“…The concept of gut-brain-skin axis and role of microbiomes in spreading cancer is also revealed (Misra & Raghuwanshi, 2022). In a similar study, bi-directional communication between gut and lung (termed as Gut-Lung axis) and role of probiotics in lung diseases is also established (Rai, 2021). The gut microbiota has a noteworthy effect on the skin good health as it is accompanying with various chronic inflammatory skin disorders, including acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis (Divyashri et al, 2021).…”

Like the internal digestive system, the largest organ of our body, the skin, maintains a healthy balance with the natural inhabitants of it. Skin act as a host for several microorganisms (about one million per square centimetre) including different types of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This microbiome takes active role in the fighting with infection, providing protection against environmental damage, regulation of pH and in keeping the skin hydrated and healthy. Probiotics are live and healthy microorganisms that can be consumed directly to restore the pH levels and the balance in the guts. They act like good bacteria and are important to keep away the “bad” bacteria from multiplying in different organ of human body. They can also be applied on the skin to restore the skin's ecosystem, pH and immunity. Again, long term exposure to solar radiation may induce UV damaged skin cancer. The utilization of probiotic bacteria in skin cancer research may help in development of new skin cancer prevention and treatment options.

“…The in vivo and in vitro studies reveal the effect of probiotics (belonging to genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium) on the execution of the anti-carcinogenic effect. But only some researchers strongly correlate biotherapeutics with cancer therapy (Rai et al, 2021). The next important class of therapeutics for cancer are the probiotic-derivated anticancer pharmaceuticals.…”

Probiotics are live organisms that generally give consumers health advantages by improving or restoring the gut flora. Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are the two most commonly known probiotics. They have vital role in the prevention and/or diagnosis of many diseases, such as obesity, cancer, asthma, diarrhoea, hay fever, diabetes, chronic fever, HIV, and atopic eczema. They also help to maintain the gut microflora of the intestine. Gut microbiota reside in the gastrointestinal tract of humans, which can be bacteria, fungi, viruses, or protozoa and bacteriophages, which are essential for maintaining healthy gut health. The most dominant gut microbial phyla consist of firmicutes, actinobacteria, proteobacteria, bacteroidetes, and fusobacteria. In 90% of the gut microbiata belongs to the two important phyla-firmicutes and bacteroidetes. Examples include Lactobacillus acidophilus, Clostridium perfringens, Helicobacter pylori, Bacteroides fragilis, and Corynebacterium matruchotii. This review paper focuses on the role of probiotic microorganisms in preventing certain chronic diseases. The role of gut microbiota in maintaining human health is very crucial. They are known to maintain the host's homeostasis by providing protection against pathogens, training the immune system, better processing dietary compounds, and assisting proper nutrient uptake.
