Abstract
Health management and sustained mental comfort requires a multidisciplinary approach, with a holistic strategy for maintenance of overall wellbeing. Therapeutic interventions for maternal health need to be designed in such a way that it permits mitigation and prevention of the adverse influences on the health of mother and child both. Good gut health has a significant impact on motivation, and higher cognitive functions involving the neuro-immuno-endocrine mediators. The study aimed to understand the knowledge, attitude and practices of expectant mothers during their pregnancy towards the use of probiotics from different cities of Rajasthan, India. Results of the survey study suggested that a considerable number of mothers were unaware about the health benefits of probiotics consumption during and post-pregnancy and due to partial and ambiguous knowledge towards probiotics, maternal subjects also showed characteristics of disbelief on probiotics consumption during and post-pregnancy, which further contributed towards the decreased consumption of probiotics during and post-pregnancy.
