Prof Claudio De Simone’s talks

Let’s talk about probiotics. They are a serious subject: we are talking about ingesting “bacteria” which, not so long ago, were considered the worst enemies to our health. A serious matter also because the microbiota (the microflora which populates our gut – and not only) and its manipulation seems to be playing a central role in health and disease: gut and liver diseases, autism, HIV, metabolic disorders, sports and aging ….. the list is endless and safety of use and efficacy become paramount aspects to take into consideration.

Nutrition remains a cornerstone for our wellbeing, a well-chosen probiotic can be a valid support when the balance is disrupted.
