Live microorganisms known as probiotics are intended to improve one's health whether taken orally or topically. Yogurts, other fermented foods, and probiotic-rich beverages are widely available and provide delicious, nutrient-dense snacks. Probiotics are also found in many cosmetic products. When consumed in appropriate amounts, probiotics have beneficial effects on the body, including improved gut health and reduced intestinal inflammation. Since they improve immune function and halt the progression of diseases, probiotics are crucial for preventative healthcare.

Growing Health concerns for humans and animals is anticipated to boost the market

One of the key factors driving the market growth for probiotics is anticipated to be an expansion in the food and beverage sector as a result of rising consumer expenditure and supportive governmental policies. Preventive healthcare awareness is expanding as a result of a number of variables, including rising disposable income, rising standards of living, and an aging population. Probiotics are being used in dietary supplements such as infant formula, food supplements, nutritional supplements, and specialty nutrients as the demand for dietary supplements rise as a result of rising fitness aspirations among individuals. The demand for probiotics in functional food and beverages has increased as a result of rising processed food consumption, unhealthy lifestyle choices, and increased media and health authority coverage of the relationship between diet and health.

Market Developments:

• Sept 2022: Resist X Pro, an additive that boosts salmon's immune response and resistance to rickettsiosis, was introduced by BioMar. A probiotic created by IctioBiotics, a subsidiary of the Ictio Biotechnologies technical consortium at the University of Santiago de Chile, is a component of the new product. It is given to fish as a preventative measure against potential outbreaks during the time of greatest challenge. The supplement can be added to any existing Biomar diet and is made for Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout. The manufacturer advises beginning the usage of the new addition 15 days prior to the risk period and continuing it for at least six consecutive weeks throughout the fish's exposure to Piscirickettsia salmonis.
• May 2019: Trials are being planned throughout Chile by the Chilean biotechnology startup company IctioBiotic, which developed a probiotic for farmed salmon with the goal of reducing diseases like salmon rickettsial syndrome (SRS). A start-up company called IctioBiotic developed an oral probiotic that, when added to the diet, prevents SRS and other illnesses by boosting fish's immune systems, which do so by between 30% and 80%. The business will collaborate with a large fish feed producer, enabling the probiotic to be given throughout Chile. The business also stated that because industrial production is not possible in Chile, it has a contract with a Spanish company to handle the manufacture. The business further stated that the invention has already been granted a patent.
