Description
What are probiotics? There are over 3.8 trillion bacteria in the body, mainly residing in the intestines, but the benefits of probiotics, or friendly bacteria, extend far beyond the gut (Sender R et al. PLoS Biol. 2016;14(8):e1002533). The gut plays an active role in immune health. Some people may think probiotics work by directly impacting the gut composition, but its actually the interactions of the probiotics and the compounds they produce with immune cells, food and nutrients, and other microorganisms in the gut that impact health (ISAPP Infographic: Probiotics: Dispelling Myths, 2018). Unhealthy diets, stress, and other factors can disrupt the bodys balance of good and bad microorganisms and affect digestive, urogenital, and immune health. A quality probiotic can help promote a healthy microbial balance to support multiple aspects of health.
