In recent years, nutritionists and microbiologists have paid more attention to the utilization of dietary supplementation produced by natural food resources, to improve the immune system function of the human and animals. People are more willing to obtain nature supplementations due to the growing awareness of food safety, and the side effects of excessive consumption of manufactured supplements. Fermented food are introduced to provide beneficial effects on health because of the characteristics of LAB, which are temporary integrative microorganisms in the intestinal microbiota. And they could not only balance the micro-ecosystem of the host by secreting microbiome, but also enhance the beneficial properties of autonomous microorganisms. This review aims to discuss the of LAB yogurt to the gut microbiota based on recent research.
