In the intestinal tract of the human species inhabits a microbial ecosystem that is highly important for health. Our objective is to analyze contributions of the scientific literature on composition, physiology, and mechanisms of the intestinal microbiota to contribute to the prevention of diseases. 61 publications on members of this population of microorganisms and some of their physiological mechanisms that impact health status were studied and interpreted. This work allowed us to develop three reflections that are the basis for the following conclusion: the scientific literature provides information and data on the intestinal microbiota that support the importance of protecting this ecosystem to prevent diseases and increase life expectancy with good quality.
