Goodness of Probiotics for Gut Health
Probiotics are the “good” bacteria that your gut needs to maintain immune function, gut health and overall health. Probiotics help stimulate the natural enzymes and processes that keep our digestive organs functioning properly
Our gut is home to roughly 70 percent of your immune system and trillions of bacteria, both helpful and not-so-much, which are kept in balance largely by a healthy, plant-rich diet. Collectively, those bacteria are called the microbiome, and when you feed it well with lots of fiber, nutrient-dense foods, and little if any sugar—chances are, you’ll be well far more often than ill.
If you don’t have enough probiotics, the side effects can include: digestive disorders, skin issues, candida, autoimmune disease and frequent colds and flus.
In addition to a healthy diet, a fundamental way to keep the microbiome on an even keel is by supporting it with probiotics. To get your daily dose, you must eat probiotics or take a supplement—or better yet, do both to cover your bases and fill in any nutritional gaps.
You can consume probiotics in the form of curd / yogurt, fermented foods like idlis or dosas or fermented rotis made of wheat, pickles, Sauerkraut
