Future challenge on probiotics uses from fermented milk on the endocrine disorder in human

Abstract

More than fifty different probiotics have been identified with different structures and modes of action. This study aimed to offer an overview of the evidence on the clinical microbiology activity of the probiotics group derived from fermented milk. We conducted a framework for reporting probiotics activity using the MICRO (Microbiology Investigation Criteria for Reporting Objectively) checklist. Two electronic databases (Pubmed and EMBASE) were used to conduct this study. The initial search discovered 22 references (Pubmed 8 and EMBASE 16). We included human study, clinical trial study, English written, and full articles in this review. Of all these original articles, only six articles were included in the review. These included articles reported the testing phase on the pre-analytical and analytical phases. This review found that probiotics such as Lactobacillus acidophilus La-5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp lactis BB-12 are beneficial in humans’ endocrine disorder therapy. This activity includes maintaining serum insulin levels in pregnant women and reducing weight in healthy obese men and women. Thus, probiotics, with their several features, may advance their candidacy as therapeutic agents. However, there is more effort to do. For example, finishing the analytical phase, especially on quality assurance and avoiding bias.
