Your supplements, your way
Stop me if you’ve heard this before: you’re looking forward to some fun at the end of the day, but your stomach isn’t cooperating. An unbalanced gut microbiome can put the kibosh on a good day, whether it’s occasional bloating, irregularity, or digestive discomfort. No one likes to feel out of sorts, and when your stomach isn’t cooperating, it can lead to frustration.
One way women can support a balanced gut microbiome for digestive health is through probiotic supplementation. In this article, we will explore some of the benefits of probiotics for women, Nature Made®’s trusted probiotic support options, and how specific strains can support women’s digestive and overall health.†
What Do Probiotics Do for Women?
You’ve probably heard of probiotics; they’re growing in popularity as a supplement to support your digestive health. But what are probiotics? What do probiotics do for women?
The gut microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms that live within your GI tract. While gut microbes have different functions, these organisms all play some role in digestion. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that work with the pre-existing bacteria in your gut to contribute to your gut microbiome and help support your digestive system. We can get probiotics in our diet through fermented probiotic foods like yogurt, kefir, kombucha, and kimchi among others.
Our digestive system is more than just our stomach and intestines; the gut microbiome is an important part of supporting our digestive health. Probiotics help by providing the good bacteria to your gut microbiome and help support digestive balance. And gut health doesn’t just affect our digestion; it’s also linked to immune health and overall well-being.
