With the new data about connection of microbiome with health and
illnesses come from human microbiome studies, the importance of
this relationship is increasing. On the other hand, with the increased
mean lifespan there are some questions like, how do we live more
healthfull? How can we age in a more healthy way? Once we get the
answers, we will probably age healthy and succesfully, and then get
positive consequences such as postponing aging illnesses, decreasing
the suffering, reducing the economical loss, reducing bed
dependence, and getting more appreciation. All these may be
possible by taking probiotics, which is a more preferred and easy
way.

İnsan mikrobiyomu araştırmaları, sağlığın ve hastalıkların
mikrobiyomla olan ilişkisine dair yeni veriler sağladıkça, bu ilişkinin
önemi giderek artmaya başlamıştır. Diğer taraftan, ortalama yaşam
süresinin artmasıyla birlikte, “nasıl sağlıklı oluruz?” sorusu, şimdi
“nasıl sağlıklı yaşlanırız?” haline dönüşmüştür. Çünkü bu sorunun
cevabına yaklaştığımızda, öncelikle sağlıklı ve başarılı
yaşlanacağımız gibi, aynı zamanda yaşlılık hastalıklarını geciktirme,
acı çekme süreçlerini azaltma, ekonomik kayıbı azaltma, yatağa
bağımlılığı azaltma, hayattan daha çok zevk alma gibi pozitif
sonuçlar da kazanacağız. Bunları yapmak da tercih edilebilir ve
kolay bir yol olan yalnızca probiyotik alımı ile mümkün olabilir.
