Probiotics and the gut: understanding and optimising your microbiota

10/01/2026

Probiotics and the gut have a complex relationship. Far from being simply ‘good bacteria’, these microorganisms interact with a unique ecosystem: the microbiota. Find out how to better understand and maintain it.

📌︎ Key takeaways
  • ✓The gut microbiota comprises between 1,000 and 100,000 billion microorganisms, mainly concentrated in the colon.
  • ✓Probiotics do not establish a long-term presence in the gut, which is why it is beneficial to take them regularly or repeat courses as needed.
  • ✓The properties of probiotics depend closely on the strains used.
  • ✓CFU dosage, freeze-drying and gastro-resistant coating are key criteria for choosing the right supplement.
  • ✓Prebiotics, such as inulin and FOS, act as ‘food’ for certain gut bacteria and optimize their colonisation and activity.
