Why intestinal health means something:
Your intestine is more than just a place where the food is digested – it is a home with bacteria, called intestinal microbiomes. A healthy intestine:
- Supports better digestion
- Increases the immunity
- Improves energy and mood
- Helps maintain a healthy weight
When your gut becomes unbalanced, it may also be the cause of blotting, constipation, acidity, fatigue or skin problems.
