The effectiveness of functional ingredients of prebiotic action in the correction of human microbiota

Recently, there has been a decrease in the resistance of the human body to various diseases due to an increase in man-made and anthropogenic pressure on the environment. Many diseases, as well as pathological human conditions, are accompanied by intestinal dysfunction and undesirable changes in the composition and number of microorganisms. According to scientists, the cause of the violation is adverse factors, including those caused by stress. Research in the field of correction of the human microbiota shows that the use of prebiotic components improves the functioning of the digestive system, increases immunity, calcium absorption and lowers cholesterol in the blood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of prebiotic components based on fructopolysaccharides (inulin) on changes in the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract caused by stress. The participants of the experiment were volunteers, some of whom were subjected to a single stressful effect, after which some of the volunteers consumed a dietary supplement. We have established the effectiveness of a dietary supplement that stimulated the growth of bifidobacteria and eliminated violations of microbiocenosis associated with the adaptation of the body to stress. This protein product can be recommended for the correction of human microbiota.
