A Guide to Probiotics
Probiotics are the friendly and good bacteria that play a vital role in supporting our overall health. They are the living microorganisms that offer numerous benefits in promoting diversity, balance, and functionality within our body's microbiomes.
Within our digestive system resides trillions of these beneficial microorganisms, outnumbering our own cells tenfold. Although we often link probiotics to digestive health, their influence extends to our oral and vaginal microbiomes in women. When the right balance of these microorganisms is maintained, they contribute to our overall well-being and proper bodily functions.
Scientific research has shown that incorporating probiotics into our routine can greatly benefit our gut health and overall wellness. However, due to insufficient nutrients in our diets, the average person may not be getting enough probiotics naturally. That's why supplementing with organic probiotics is a wise choice.
Several factors can distrupt this balance and can contribute to an unhealthy gut:
- Antiobiotic use
- Food poisioning
- Medication
- Poor diet
- Stress
These actors can disrupt the presence of beneficial bacteria, allowing dysbiotic bacteria to thrive and cause bacterial overgrowth, as well as other gut health issues and imbalances.
The gut microbiome, which houses these beneficial bacteria, has a significant impact on regulating sex hormones, immune function, metabolism, energy levels, and even mood.
When the gut's bacterial balance is disrupted, individuals may experience allergy symptoms, mood imbalances, low energy, fatigue, metabolic challenges, cardiovascular issues, hormonal imbalances, skin problems, accelerated ageing or autoimmune conditions.
