I am so excited to chat with you about this today because the gut is one of the most important areas when it comes to our overall health & wellness & probiotics are an amazing way to maintain the integrity of our gut!PREVIOUS EPISODE ALL ABOUT GUT HEALTH!Probiotics are substances that stimulate the growth of microorganisms, especially those with beneficial properties. They help digest food, produce vitamins and help your body destroy disease-causing microorganisms and hinder their growth.Probiotics are considered as “helpful” bacteria because they help balance your microbiome and the balance between your body’s “good” and “bad” bacteria.Billions of bacteria work hard to break down our food, detoxify our system, and regulate our hormonesEspecially helpful after taking antibiotics, which can wipe out much of the good bacteria and lead to digestive issues.Probiotics also help mental health- gut and brain connectionThey also with irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and diarrhea.  Improve some skin conditions, help prevent UTI’s, boost immunity & maintain a healthy weight.HOW TO CHOOSE ONEnon dairymore resilient bacterial strains do NOT require refrigeration to keep their quality.SBO based (SBOs also trigger antibodies within the gut to defend us from illness.
