Resumo: Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer a beneficial effect to the individual when consumed in adequate amounts. Current essay reviews the literature on probiotics, presents possible mechanisms of their activity in the human body and health benefits through their regular consumption. Research on the effect of probiotic cultures in improving the symptoms of lactose intolerance has shown positive effects for many people. Certain strains of probiotics would be able to decrease the amount of fecal enzymes involved in colon cancer, while others have antidiarrheal effect, although the amount used, the causes of the problem and sub-population involved have to be clearly defined. There are also some indications that probiotics may improve intestinal regularity. The lack of studies on human beings and the conflicting results suggest that it is very early claims hypocholesterolemic and anticarcinogenic effects associated with probiotic cultures.

Este artigo revisa a literatura acerca dos probióticos, apresenta possíveis mecanismos de ação destes no corpo humano e os benefícios à saúde do seu consumo regular. Pesquisas acerca do efeito de culturas probióticas na melhoria dos sintomas de intolerância à lactose demonstram efeitos positivos para muitas pessoas. Certas cepas de probióticos teriam capacidade de diminuir a quantidade de enzimas fecais envolvidas no câncer de cólon enquanto outras teriam efeito antidiarréico, embora a quantidade utilizada, as causas do problema e a sub-população envolvida tenham que ser claramente definidas. Há ainda algumas indicações de que os probióticos possam melhorar a regularidade intestinal. A falta de estudos com humanos e os resultados conflitantes encontrados sugerem que ainda é prematuro fazer alegações de efeitos hipocolesterolêmicos e anticarcinogênicos associados às culturas probióticas.Universidade Cesumar - UniCesumar2011-02-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de Literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/1276Saúde e Pesquisa; Vol 4 No 1 (2011): jan./abr.Saúde e Pesquisa; v. 4 n. 1 (2011): jan./abr.2176-9206reponame:Saúde e Pesquisa (Online)instname:Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisainstacron:CESUMARporhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/1276/1209Pimentel, Tatiana Colomboinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-05-23T16:40:26Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/1276Revistahttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesqPUBhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/oainaep@cesumar.br2176-92061983-1870opendoar:2022-05-23T16:40:26Saúde e Pesquisa (Online) - Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisafalse
