Your gut health is the foundation of your wellbeing, so it makes sense to look after it!

Protect your gut, and you will be well on the way to optimal wellness, enhanced vitality and happiness. Many health experts suggest this, and for an excellent reason.

Science tells us that the bacteria in our body outnumber our body's cells 10 to 1 and that most of these bacteria are in your gut. Your gut microbiome consists of trillions of bacteria and other microorganisms which live in your digestive system and enhances the optimal functioning of your digestion, metabolism, immunity and brain¹.

So naturally having the right bacteria in there is extremely important, and is why many health experts around the world have been suggesting the importance of protecting your gut for centuries.

Probiotics promote the growth of beneficial bacteria. Did you know that there is about 2 to 4 kilograms of intestinal bacteria in our digestive systems? These bacteria are made up of good and bad bacteria. Good bacteria aid in food breakdown and help produce necessary nutrients needed by our bodies, they also help keep the growth of bad bacteria under control.

Probiotics provide the good bacteria needed for a healthy digestive system.  

The number of 'good' bacteria in your microbiome can be imbalanced by a wide range of lifestyle factors including:

• Excess alcohol intake;
• Consuming too much dietary fat;
• Eating a low fibre diet;
• Excess stress;
• Exposure to toxic substances;
