Contains probiotics that are friendly for the digestive system*
As we age, the composition of microflora in the digestive system can become altered
Your body is home to 38 trillion microorganisms that help keep you healthy.*1 Different areas of the body, such as the skin, digestive tract, and mouth, have different communities of microorganisms and their own unique microbiomes. The digestive tract has the highest density of resident microorganisms and is the most studied.1
The roles these microorganisms play is as diverse as they are. Just like vitamins and minerals play different roles in your health, different types of probiotics have different benefits. Some probiotic products provide a blend of different strains similar to a multivitamin. Other products take a more targeted approach by providing just one strain akin to taking a letter vitamin.
Did you know? Foods fermented with friendly bacteria have been used for thousands of years. Historically, Ancient Egyptian and Middle Eastern civilizations used fermentation as a method of preserving foods.2
