A healthy gut digests and absorbs your food and utilizes the "friendly" bacteria throughout your gastrointestinal tract. Gut health also plays an important role in immune system function and response to infectious agents, such as viruses and fungi. And an overall healthy gut is an important factor in you feeling good!

A microbiome refers to a specific region where microorganisms live. When it comes to your body, your gut microbiome is the ecosystem of microorganisms, including good and bad bacteria, fungi, and viruses, inside your gut and digestive system. This microbiome is the direct recipient of the probiotics, bacteria, and enzymes in your diet and digestive health supplements.

If you've ever heard people talk about "good bacteria," they're talking about probiotics. These bacteria are found throughout the digestive system and help promote better digestion and immunity. These good bacteria can also aid in combating harmful bacteria that have entered your gut.
Digestive enzymes, on the other hand, work to support your gut health by supplementing chemicals and aiding in chemical reactions that break down food and absorb nutrients. In this way, digestive enzymes, including those available in gut supplements, and probiotics work together to promote healthy living and digestive gut health.

There may be many benefits to taking probiotics, including:

• Overall gut health
• Digestive support
• Healthy weight management
• Immunity support

Two of the most common types of bacteria in probiotic supplements are Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Bifidobacteria. Both bacteria work to help improve your gut health along with a host of other types of bacteria in the supplements.
