Probiotic Athletic Performance Randomized TrialHowever, evidence in trained populations is inconsistent and is confounded by variability in diet, probiotic strains, dose, and intervention duration.2Jagłowska K (2026)Multistrain Probiotic Supplementation Combined with a Standardized Diet Did Not Significantly Affect Exercise Performance or Inflammatory Responses in Male Endurance Runners: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Probiotic Athletic Performance Randomized TrialBackground: Gut microbiota may influence metabolic and inflammatory responses to exercise through the gut-muscle axis, and probiotic supplementation has been proposed to support adaptation and recovery in endurance athletes.2Jagłowska K (2026)Multistrain Probiotic Supplementation Combined with a Standardized Diet Did Not Significantly Affect Exercise Performance or Inflammatory Responses in Male Endurance Runners: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
