The residing microbiome with its vast repertoire of genes provide distinctive properties to the host by which they can degrade and utilise nutrients that otherwise pass the gastro-intestinal tract unchanged. The polyphenols in our diet have selective growth promoting effects which is of utmost importance as the state of good health has been linked to dominance of particular microbial genera. The polyphenols in native form might more skilfully exert anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties but in a living system it is the microbial derivatives of polyphenol that play a key role in determining health outcome. This two way interaction has invoked great interest among researchers who have commenced several clinical surveys and numerous studies in in-vitro, simulated environment and living systems to find out in detail about the biomolecules involved in such interaction along with their subsequent physiological benefits. In this review, we have thoroughly discussed these studies to develop a fair idea on how the amalgamation of probiotics and polyphenol has an immense potential as an adjuvant therapeutic for disease prevention as well as treatment.

多酚和益生菌的融合可促进健康

驻留的微生物组具有丰富的基因，可以为宿主提供独特的特性，使它们可以降解并利用营养，否则营养原样通过胃肠道。我们饮食中的多酚具有选择性促进生长的作用，这是至关重要的，因为良好的健康状态已与特定微生物属的优势联系在一起。天然形式的多酚可能更熟练地发挥抗氧化和抗炎特性，但在生命系统中，多酚的微生物衍生物在决定健康结果方面起着关键作用。这两种互动方式引起了研究人员的极大兴趣，他们已经开始了数项临床调查和大量的体外研究，模拟环境和生物系统，以详细了解参与此类相互作用的生物分子及其后续的生理益处。在这篇综述中，我们彻底讨论了这些研究，以期就益生菌和多酚的融合如何作为预防疾病和治疗的辅助疗法具有巨大潜力提出一个合理的想法。
