Probiotics are the ‘good’ bacteria that work to keep pathogens (or ‘bad’ bacteria) at bay. In addition to maintaining friendly flora within the gut, probiotics have been shown to support gut health and maintain healthy immune system function.
Probiotics have been extensively researched in recent years and, as such, many different strains have been identified. Interestingly, not all probiotics are the same. Each probiotic strain is unique and different strains have been shown to have different health benefits.
