This document discusses probiotics and their potential role in treating diabetes. It begins by providing background on probiotics and how their use has increased in clinical studies over time. Probiotics have been shown to impact gut function, immunity, oral health and metabolic conditions like diabetes and obesity. The document then discusses how gut microbiota alterations from factors like diet and stress can increase intestinal permeability, activate the immune system and interrupt insulin activity, leading to diabetes. It proposes that probiotic treatment may help by producing substances like butyrate and GLP-1 that aid insulin secretion. The remainder outlines a process for developing a probiotic formulation to treat diabetes, from identifying potential probiotic bacteria to clinical trials. It emphasizes the importance of the gut
