topicSynbiotic Constipation Randomized Trial
claimSynbiotic supplementation significantly reduced levels of key muscle injury markers (CK, p < 0.001; AST, p = 0.01) and inflammatory markers (TNF-α, p < 0.001; hs-CRP, p < 0.001) compared to placebo.

topicSynbiotic Constipation Randomized Trial
claimThis 12-week double-blind, randomized clinical trial investigated the efficacy of synbiotic supplementation in 25 players assigned to either a synbiotic group (n = 13) receiving 10⁹ CFU of seven probiotic strains plus 375 mg fructooligosaccharides, or a placebo group (n = 12).

claimMechanistic studies suggest that synbiotics may influence the underlying mechanisms of bloating, including increased gas production, impaired gut motility, and visceral hypersensitivity, but there is a paucity of data from large trials evaluating clinical outcomes.
