Probiotics are live microorganisms, often referred to as “good bacteria,” that provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts. These beneficial bacteria can help balance the natural bacteria in your gut, improving digestion and supporting the immune system.
Here’s a closer look at how probiotics work and their benefits:
Probiotics help maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the digestive system. Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria, both good and bad. When the balance is disrupted (for example, after a course of antibiotics or due to poor diet), probiotics can help restore that balance. By promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, probiotics help in:
The gut is closely linked to the immune system, and about 70-80% of the immune cells are found in the intestines. By promoting a healthy gut flora, probiotics can help support the immune system and may reduce the risk of infections or inflammation.
There’s growing research showing that the gut microbiome (the community of microorganisms in the gut) plays a role in mental health. The gut-brain axis is the communication pathway between the digestive system and the brain. Some studies suggest that probiotics might help manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress by influencing the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin.
Probiotics may also have a role in skin health by reducing inflammation and supporting the immune system. Some people use probiotics to help manage skin conditions like acne, eczema, or rosacea
