The human gastrointestinal tract is colonized with a diverse population of microbial flora that not only has digestive function but also contribute to intestinal epithelial homeostasis and innate immunity. Alteration of the microflora is effective in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including infections, inflammatory, allergic and immunological conditions. A fuller understanding of the importance of intestinal microflora has generated much interest around the use of probiotics to promote and maintain health. Probiotics are live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. Prebiotics are food supplements that are not hydrolyzed or absorbed in the small intestine but are available as substrate for indigenous bacteria in the large intestine, selectively stimulate the growth and/or activity of selected intestinal bacteria; thus have beneficial effects on the health of the host.
