Our gut is filled with trillions of bacteria. In fact, by some estimates more than
50% of our body is bacteria! These little creatures exist alongside each other,
and they can have an impact on every aspect of our health. They can affect
brain function, organ function, mental health, digestive health, you name it,
they have an impact. However, some of the bacteria that can take root are
pathogenic, and can cause health problems in humans, especially if they’re in
large populations. So, with probiotics we send in live bacteria from the
beneficial families. This way we can keep the population of good bacteria
strong! They can then help to outcompete the bad bacteria and keep their
numbers low, helping to prevent them from having an impact on your health.
