Probiotics are the "Good Bacteria" that can boost your immune system, improve your digestion and much more.

To feel better and stay healthy, include Probiotics into your daily routine!

Probioritics are essential to basic human nutrition. Probiotics are live microorganisms (in most cases, bacteria) that are similar to the beneficial microorganisms naturally found in the human gut. These "Good Bacteria" are used to prevent and alleviate many different conditions, but particularly those that affect the gastrointestinal tract.

Our gut is home to over 500 bacterial species. These "visitors" form a bioreactor, which facilitates digestion, provides nutrients, and helps form the immune system. Some important nutrients made by this bioreactor include several B vitamins, vitamin K, Folate, and some short-chain fatty acids. Up to 10% of an individual's daily energy needs can be derived from the by products of the good bacteria in your gut.

Furthermore, probiotics can provide multiple  benefits for you immune system. When probiotics are abundant in your body it's harder for bacteria that cause illness to get a foothold. Some also keep you healthy by making bacteriocins, which suppress the growth of harmful bacteria.
