Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the impact of synbiotic ice cream on health indicators among young military members undergoing field training, focusing on factors like gut microbiota and salivary IgA levels.
- Sixty-five participants were divided into two groups: one received synbiotic ice cream with beneficial bacteria and inulin, while the other received a placebo for 30 days, followed by evaluations after a 5-day training period.
- Results showed that while the synbiotic supplementation did not significantly affect gastrointestinal symptoms or salivary IgA levels, it did lead to reductions in tenseness and sleepiness, suggesting potential benefits for well-being during physically and mentally stressful conditions.
