Core Tip
Core Tip: The occurrence and progression of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are associated with intestinal microbiota disorder. Probiotics modulate the gut microbiota, which can decrease lipopolysaccharide-containing microbiota in the gut and plasma lipopolysaccharides, and inhibit expression of inflammatory factors, thereby reducing insulin resistance, modulating glucose metabolism, and preventing GDM, especially in high-risk groups such as overweight/obese pregnant women. This review provides up-to-date evidence on the effects of probiotics in preventing GDM and improving glucose metabolism and other maternal and infant outcomes in overweight/obese pregnant women, and discusses the mechanism of probiotics on GDM, and the dose, method, and duration of probiotics use.
