Abstract The related studies of probiotics‐based functional foods have recently attracted increasing interests in developing new types oral administration systems. Probiotics has various biological functions, including adsorption ability nutrients, competitively rejecting pathogenic organisms, and regulating the immune system. It is well known that probiotics cannot be worked until their colonies reach intestine alive, as amount reaches 10 6 –10 7 colony‐forming units/g at end product's shelf life. However, delivery to colon through always challenging due weak viability under exposure harsh conditions presence ions small molecules from upper gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, low lack resistance acidity food matrices, high temperature during processing, oxygen changes storage also limit applications products. Therefore, encapsulation could particularly protect degradation inactivation, resulting enhanced transition consumption digestion gut. Emulsion cross‐linking, complex coacervation, microcapsules, spray drying, layer‐by‐layer self‐assembly, electrospinning, hydrogel, other methods are used encapsulate probiotics. Herein, this review mainly highlights gut health functions techniques probiotics, followed by current challenges future development prospects.
