Summary

In adults, probiotics have been shown to have no effect on the microbial composition and the beneficial effects are only transient. However, the gut microbiota of young children is less stable and more impressionable. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of probiotics on the developing microbiota in early life and to determine whether a young child's microbiota may be less resilient to probiotic-induced changes and possibly resulting in longer lasting probiotic effects compared to adults.
