- Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this article is to examine the effects of probiotics related to intestinal health as well as its systemic effects, principally on the immune system and infections. Results: There are multiple studies and articles published about probiotics in which not only are the effects on the intestinal tract investigated but also those outside the intestine, above all on the immune system and infections. Conclusions: Although more evidence is needed, it seems to be clear that some probiotic strains affect the digestive system not only at a local level, but also systemically, especially the immune system.
