Common gastric diseases include chronic gastritis, gastric ulcers and gastric cancer. The etiology of gastric diseases is complicated, including genetics, diet, excessive smoking and drinking, environmental factors, and bacterial infections. As live microorganisms, probiotics can confer health benefits to the host. At present, probiotics have been widely used in the preparation of foods, health products, and medicines. Due to their positive effects in improving diarrhea, constipation, alleviating allergies, enhancing immunity, and maintaining intestinal homeostasis, studies worldwide have focused on whether probiotics also provide therapeutic effects on gastric diseases. Thus, this review summarizes the possible mechanism of probiotics in the treatment of gastric diseases and provides a reference for expanding not only their application but also that of other microecological agents.
