Probiotics are live microorganisms that can provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts. Probiotics are naturally present in the digestive system, but they can also be found in fermented foods such as yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, and miso. Probiotic supplements are also available in various forms like capsules, powders, and liquids.  In Ayurvedic medicine, probiotics are believed to help maintain a healthy gut microbiome, which is essential for good digestion and overall health. Probiotics are often recommended for those who suffer from digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease.
