Having a healthy balance of friendly bacteria (probiotics) in the gut is thought to support good digestion, strong immunity & energy levels. It is generally accepted that people with an imbalance of probiotic (good) & pathogenic (bad) bacteria in the intestines can be more susceptible to various health conditions including sluggish bowels, bloating & constipation.
Supplementing your diet with probiotics can help to maintain a healthy balance of good bacteria over bad, thereby supporting your digestive system.

Probiotics are microorganisms which are beneficial to the human body (and this is how they have earned the name 'friendly bacteria'). Prebiotics are the food source for the body's probiotics; they can be found in certain foods such as Jerusalem artichokes, leeks & onions. Prebiotics work by stimulating the growth of probiotics in the gut, & can act as roughage in the bowels.
