Abstract

Exercise-induced inflammation, especially after intense or prolonged physical activity, can hinder recovery in athletes. Probiotic supplementation has been suggested as a potential method to modulate this inflammatory response by influencing the gut microbiota. However, the effects of probiotics on cytokine profiles following exercise remain unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimes to assess the impact of probiotic supplementation on cytokine modulation in athletes aged 18–50 years following exercise.
