Probiotics are the newest buzzword in the human dietary portfolio, and they are currently attracting a lot of attention throughout the world, particularly in India and other developing countries, thanks to their significant health benefits. Our growing knowledge of the role of the human gut microbiota, as well as the rising usage of probiotic organisms such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria as functional microbial dietary elements for human health promotion, has had a significant impact on consumers. As a result of recent advances in the science of probiotics in terms of efficacy, mode of action, and probiotic-gut microbiota-host interactions at the molecular level with the aid of high throughput sequencing techniques and nutrigenomics, the application of probiotics offers an innovative approach for the development of novel probiotic formulations under the category of functional foods for the management of specific diseases, particularly chronic inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases.
