Over the past few years, the awareness regarding health and nutrition has increased significantly. Because of hectic work schedules and extended working hours, people cannot concentrate on their daily diet, health, and fitness, thereby leading to various health issues such as obesity, diabetes, and digestive problems. Therefore, people increasingly focus on preventive health and prefer dietary supplements that offer enhanced health benefits without harmful effects. They support healthy body systems from mouth to gut and help control harmful microorganisms. These supplements often contain mixed cultures of live microorganisms rather than single strains and help improve digestive and immune health. The demand for probiotic-infused dietary supplements has also increased significantly in recent years due to the rising population of health-conscious people and the prevalence of digestive diseases. For instance, according to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, 37.2 million people in the US visited physician offices with digestive system diseases as the primary diagnosis in 2018. Thus, people are getting more aware of digestive health and prefer to consume probiotic-infused products. A healthy digestive system has been linked to mental health and immune response improvements. These dietary supplements improve digestion and nutrient absorption. Probiotics reduce digestive issues such as constipation, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
