Mamas, Trust Your Gut!

I’m sure you’ve heard a thing or two about probiotics and if you heard right, then you know that these live bacteria and yeasts are beneficial to the human body, in particular for optimal gut health!             

We all live with our own personal microbiome – all of the bacteria in our body – which is a combination of good and bad bacteria, but it’s important to have enough of the good stuff to help our body function properly. We also refer to this as our intestinal flora (or our “inner garden”) and this garden of ours calls the shots when it comes to our digestion, weight, immunity and even our mood. Yikes! Our gut is literally linked to our entire body and its health as a whole.

The problem is we can’t often get enough of the good bacteria from food alone, so that’s why we should be considering a premium supplement such as Genuine Health’s new advanced gut health probiotic 15 billion CFU. Mamas, it’s time to start cultivating our inner gardens stat!

You might be asking "how do they work?". Good question. To simply it, think about when your body might lose "good" bacteria (like after taking antibiotics), your probiotic can help replace them. Basically, a probiotic works to balance your "good" and "bad" bacteria to keep your body in check. 

In my previous full-time job, I worked in the supplement industry and probiotics was an area that really interested me! I didn’t know a lot about them and had to do my own research over the years. I used to think that every probiotic was made the same, but I was wrong. Although there are many options lining store shelves, my top choice is Genuine Health because their advanced gut health probiotic is different than others – it delivers healthier and heartier strains of probiotic bacteria to where it’s needed most.

Taking a probiotic has become part of my regular routine and I believe health starts from the inside out. Without getting too technical or “science-y”, just know that this particular probiotic is crafted with 15 carefully-selected strains that mimic a healthy human gut flora. Genuine Health also uses a unique encapsulation process that delivers up to ten times more bacteria to the gut. Let’s just say they guarantee potency and targeted delivery to where this good bacteria needs to go. Bonus: it’s 100% Vegan, Soy-Free, Gluten-Free, and Non-GMO.

In a nutshell, what do I love about probiotics? They …

  1. Support a healthy digestive system

  2. Help improve skin conditions

  3. Enhance immune health

  4. Improve my mood

What’s more, Genuine Health’s new advanced gut health probiotic 15 billion CFU is clean and toxic free – two things us mothers love to hear – clean and toxic free! With 15 human strains you are helping your ‘inner garden’ thrive. You can find it at your local health food, grocery and drug retailers or visit genuinehealth.com to find a store near you.

I hope this post helps to give you more insight on what the benefits of probiotics are.  In conclusion, today and every day, you should always trust your gut! :)
