If you have read some of my other posts then you may know two things about me:

1. I am in the process of healing my gut

2. I am super conscious of what foods I am eating, especially sugar

A few months ago I came across the above probiotic at Whole Foods.

At the time, I was working with a nutritionist who recommended that I should take a probiotic daily.

Why use a probiotic?

- boost your immune system

- improve your digestion

- promote detoxification

- restore good/beneficial bacteria after taking antibiotics

- create a balanced environment

The microbiome in your gut plays a role in your overall health.

I notice whenever I am eating a lot of gluten, I tend to have more negative thoughts. 

There is a direct connection between gut bacteria and mental health.

My anxiety and bad thoughts are not as frequent when I am eating a diet that works for my body and consistently taking a probiotic.

Be cautious of what type of probiotic you are using.

If it is full of sugar and cannot withstand stomach acid, then it won't be the most beneficial.

I like the Inner-Eco Original Plain probiotic because it is coconut kefir, it reaches my intestines, it has minimal sugar, and it is dairy free.

I have been using it every day for the past few months and I love it.

If you don't believe me that a probiotic is an essential part of healthy living, then check out the below video.
