  • More about Prebiotics and Probiotics in Disease Regulation and Management


The book covers emerging technologies and challenges in the synthesis and application of prebiotics and probiotics, including their use in disease regulation and management. It highlights the importance of nutraceuticals in maintaining gut homeostasis, preventing, and treating gut-related disorders, and their potential as anti-cancer agents, immune-modulatory agents, and treatment of metabolic disorders. The audience includes food scientists, biotechnologists, researchers, nutraceutical/supplement product developers, and pharmaceutical companies.

The book delves into the realm of prebiotics and probiotics, exploring their emerging technologies, challenges, and applications in disease regulation and management. It encompasses the latest developments in the delivery of prebiotics, probiotics for various diseases, their immune-boosting activities, and potential anti-cancer and anti-tumor effects. The demand for biobased products, including prebiotic oligosaccharides and probiotics, is on the rise, particularly in the food industry. While agro waste like citrus peel, sugar beet pulp, copra meal, and wheat husk can be utilized for the production of prebiotic oligosaccharides, prebiotics are dietary fibers that are selectively fermented by gut microbes, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria and regulating harmful ones.

The book underscores the significance of nutraceuticals, including prebiotics and probiotics, in maintaining gut homeostasis, preventing gut-related disorders, functioning as anti-cancer agents, immune-modulatory agents, and treating metabolic disorders. It highlights the current challenges in formulating and developing nutraceuticals, as well as the application of nanotechnology and bioinformatics-based approaches to study their effects on oral health and gut microflora in precise manners.

The target audience for this comprehensive book includes food scientists, biotechnologists, researchers in nutraceuticals and food processing research companies, nutraceutical/supplement product developers, and healthcare professionals interested in advancing the understanding and utilization of prebiotics and probiotics for disease management and overall well-being.
