Understanding Probiotics & When To Use Them

Author: Nutritional Weight & Wellness, Inc. November 18, 2024 Duration: 39:58

Much of the spotlight in nutritional science is focusing on healing the gut and supporting the gut microbiome, meaning all of the little bugs that live in your intestinal tract. Your gut bacteria and the integrity of your intestinal tissues influence all areas of your health. In this episode, our dietitians will be discussing why probiotics can be an important tool for overall health, what the different strains of probiotics are good for, and how to make sure you’re taking the right one for you. They will cover food sources of probiotics as well as several types of supplement options we’ve seen successful in our clinical practice.
