Why is balanced gut flora important?
Whether we enjoy good gut health or are susceptible to common digestive distress depends upon which bacteria are more dominant in our body; the good or bad. When we are in good health, the population of bacteria that lives in our gut is said to be balanced; the good bacteria outnumber the bad bacteria. We feel good, digestion and absorption are functioning properly to give us the nutrients we need to thrive. A proper balance of bacteria in our gut is an important part of good health.
