7 Ways Your Gut Bacteria Influence Your Health

The effects of a healthy microbiome reach beyond your digestive health. Your gut flora affects the health of your entire body, including your brain. While many don’t realize it, your gut even affects your mood.

There are more than 1,000 different species of bacteria living in your gut, and they’re very busy at work, helping to:

1. Direct the activity of hundreds of genes.*
   By turning on or off genes, they change the instructions going to your cells for supporting health.*
2. Calibrate your immune system.*
   Experts believe about 80% of your immune function is located in your digestive tract.
3. Promote a normal allergic response.*
   By helping to protect the membrane lining of your intestinal wall, they help stop undigested food, bacteria and metabolic wastes from escaping into your bloodstream.*
4. Digest your food and produce nutrients.*
   They’re essential for optimal digestion of food and absorption of nutrients, and they help your body produce vitamins, absorb minerals and aid in the elimination of toxins.*
5. Make you feel happy or blue.
   Your gut contains a network of neurons or brain cells called the enteric nervous system (ENS). Your ENS controls both digestion and mental well-being. Changes in your gut bacteria can have a noticeable effect on your mood and sleeping patterns.*
6. Promote your urinary tract health.*
   Evidence suggests that regular use of probiotics may help support urinary tract health by maintaining a population of healthy bacteria in selected areas of your urinary tract.*
7. Support vaginal health in women.*
   Similar to your digestive tract, a woman’s vaginal health depends on the right balance of bacteria.*

And this is just the beginning, assuming you have a healthy diversity of the right kinds of bacteria in your gut. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case…
