Probiotics, which are live microorganisms that confer health benefits to the host, are widely used to modulate the gut microbiome. The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in various aspects of human health, including digestion, immunity, and even mental health. This synthesis aims to address whether probiotics can permanently change the gut microbiome based on insights from multiple research papers.

Diet and Probiotics:
Prebiotics and Synbiotics:
Probiotics can significantly modulate the gut microbiota, leading to various health benefits. However, these changes are often transient, and permanent alteration of the gut microbiome is not typically achieved through probiotic supplementation alone. The combination of probiotics with prebiotics (synbiotics) and dietary modifications may offer more sustained benefits. Further research is needed to fully understand the long-term impacts of probiotics on the gut microbiome.
