The use of probiotics as medicinal supplements in the treatment and prevention of some diseases

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVESThe industry of producing super-beneficial foods by adding or concentrating useful compounds and removing ineffective or harmful substances was created and quickly marketed. The production and consumption of these products was developed. Extra-beneficial foods are products that, in addition to providing basic nutrition, increase the health level of people, and according to the consumption of consumers, improvements are made day by day in the production of such foods. In super-beneficial foods, among foods containing probiotic microorganisms, they are especially important. And day by day, there are improvements in the production of such foods.
