The power of probiotics for immune health
Nurturing immune health from the gut
Did you know, the gut hosts 70-80% of the body’s immune cells?1 Growing research highlights the intricate interplay between the gut microbiome and the immune system – and what happens when this delicate equilibrium is disrupted.
The gut microbiota is the main site where external microorganisms interact with the immune system. It is thought that the more diverse the gut microbiome is, the more capable immune cells are at distinguishing between harmful pathogens and harmless bacteria.2,3,4
Specific probiotic strains can support a healthy immune response and in turn help the body to fight off certain infections.
