Altering the gastrointestinal flora in patients with functional bowel disorders: a way ahead?

Magnus Simrén1.   

Abstract

Functional gastrointestinal disorders are very common in the Western world, but unfortunately the underlying mechanisms behind these disorders are incompletely understood. Treatment options are limited and the economic consequences for society are profound. Recent data suggest an involvement of bacteria in the pathogenesis of functional gastrointestinal disorders. Probiotics are promising new treatment alternatives, which will be reviewed in this supplement.
