Culture Science

Probiotics (from the Greek pro-bios, “supporting life”) are microorganisms (often bacteria) which are also commonly referred to as “live cultures”. The FAO and WHO offer this definition: “live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host”.

Probiotics act primarily in the intestinal tract, but their beneficial effects extend throughout the body. In particular, they act wherever there is a greater bacterial load in the body. This means that in addition to the intestine, they are also active within the oral cavity, on the skin, and in the vaginal area.
