What is the gut microbiome and how does it become unbalanced?
The gut microbiome is a living ecosystem of microbes that reside in the gut, including good and bad bacteria, which impact many different aspects of our health and wellbeing. A poor diet, inadequate sleep, stress and antibiotics can all enable the bad bacteria to take over, affecting the health of our gut, and our overall health (Dupont et al., 2020).
How can I help keep my microbiome in balance?
Eating a varied and healthy diet, including fermented foods like sauerkraut, kefir and kimchi, encourages a diversity of good bacteria in the gut. To support the health of the good bacteria, it’s important to eat prebiotic fibre that serves as food for the good bacteria. Sources of prebiotic fibre include onion, garlic, artichoke, asparagus and banana (Ji et al. 2023).

Ingredients
L. plantarum 299VTM
L. plantarum299VTM is one of the best documented strains of probiotic bacteria in the world, thoroughly tested for safety and efficacy in over 60 human clinical trials. It helps to suppress the growth of potentially harmful bacteria in the gut and increase gut diversity. In clinical tests, a dose of 10 billion live bacteria is shown to help reduce digestive issues like abdominal pain, bloating and gas, improve stool frequency and reduce diarrhoea (Nordström et al., 2021).
Niacin (vitamin B3)
Niacin is an essential water-soluble B vitamin that serves a wide range of important functions for the body. It is key when it comes to supporting gut health and a balanced gut microbiome (Niño-Narvión et al., 2023). It helps maintain the protective mucous membranes that line the intestines. The mucous membrane forms a protective, lubricated layer that inhibits invading harmful microbes, and ensures proper nutrient absorption (EFSA, 2009).
Niacin contributes to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes.
