Effect of Probiotic and Synbiotic Supplementation on Growth Performance, Serum Parameters and Gut Histomorphometry in Broiler Chickens Challenged With Eimeria

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
This study assessed probiotic and synbiotic supplementation via drinking water in Eimeria challenged broilers. In a 2×3 factorial design with 360 Cobb 500 chickens, Eimeria impaired growth, FCR and gut morphology, while probiotics and synbiotics improved performance, intestinal structure and serum biochemistry, alleviating coccidiosis induced damage ...

Impacts of Lifestyle and Microbiota‐Targeted Interventions for Overweight and Obesity on the Human Gut Microbiome: A Systematic Review

Obesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Dietary interventions showed the strongest evidence for improving microbiome composition. Probiotics and prebiotics consistently increased beneficial bacteria. Exercise and fecal microbiota transplantation had limited evidence but showed potential for microbiome modulation.
