Immune health starts with a balanced gut

Awareness about the importance of immune health has grown significantly over the past decade as concerns about vulnerability to disease and illness have increased. Health goals have shifted towards preventative health, and consumers are taking a proactive, life-long approach to improving their immune health by making fundamental diet and lifestyle changes.¹

The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in immune regulation through various mechanisms. Bacterial dysbiosis, an imbalance in the microbiome, can thus significantly impact immune health. In particular, dysbiosis can impair the intestinal barrier, leading to a ”leaky gut” where pathogens and other substances may enter the bloodstream. An imbalanced microbiome has also been linked to chronic inflammation, autoimmune disorders, allergies, and other inflammatory conditions.^2-4

Immune Health by Probi® supports immune defenses by harnessing the power of biotics to maintain upper respiratory health. By modulating immune pathways, it helps alleviate symptoms associated with immune responses.
