Scientists discover that co-administration of prebiotic 1-kestose and a paraprobiotic known as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum FM8 in the feed of Magellanic penguins significantly improved the distribution of beneficial bacteria in their gut, provided protection against harmful Clostridium perfringens, and promoted overall health and well-being.
