Plant Based Probiotic Functional Foods – History, Research and Market | Chapter 2 | Emerging Challenges in Agriculture and Food Science Vol. 2

 Foods fermented by probiotic lactic acid bacteria are good for your gut and may even be curative. Despite the fact that there is an increasing demand for vegan probiotic foods, the majority of probiotic products on the market are dairy-based. Plant foods have been fermented since the beginning of time, yet probiotic plant foods are hard to come by. This chapter takes you on a journey through history, from ancient fermented foods to cutting-edge research in the realm of functional plant-based probiotic meals. The difficulties that must be solved in the production of plant probiotic food are discussed, as well as a prospective outlook for its popularisation and research advancements.
