Abstract :
Due to the widespread production and supply of synbiotic or functional foods, it is necessary to study and study the various sources of supplement extraction to produce these products. Various studies have shown the positive effect of these supplements on human health and the prevention and treatment of a variety of diseases such as diabetes, cancer, gastrointestinal disorders, liver problems, etc. Research into the production and supply of commercial supplements such as inulin has been underway for many years and now has a significant share of the synbiotic food market. But new supplements such as the use of bacterial polysaccharides, yeasts, edible fungi, and algae are a new area of research in synbiotic supplements due to their economic benefits and numerous proven benefits to human health. Changes in the gut microbiome affect the number and function of the microbiome in other parts of the body, leading to disease or health promotion. In the present article, in addition to an overview of probiotics and prebiotics and synbiotics, a comprehensive overview of various prebiotic supplements with different biological origins has been provided.
