THE FOUNDATION OF A HEALTHY GUT

Your gut relies on a combination of probiotic cultures and prebiotic fiber for optimal health. Probiotics refer to the beneficial bacteria that reside in your digestive system, aiding in the breakdown of food and promoting a healthy balance of microorganisms. Prebiotics, on the other hand, are indigestible fibers that serve as a food source for probiotics, thereby stimulating their growth and activity in the gut.

The combination of probiotics and prebiotics is known as a synbiotic which can help prolong the lifespan of probiotics and enhance their effectiveness in promoting gut health.

THE GUT-BRAIN AXIS

Did you know that the bacteria in your gut can have a direct impact on your brain health? It's true! Science tells us that consuming probiotics and prebiotics can help reduce anxiety, stress and depression. The gut-brain axis is like a superhighway connecting your gut and your brain. Millions of nerves and neurons are constantly shuttling information back and forth. And get this: chemicals produced by the bacteria in your gut can affect your brain chemistry. So by altering the types of bacteria in your gut, it may be possible to improve your brain health.
