How Your Gut Health Affects Your Disease Risk
A chain reaction in your gut can leave you vulnerable to chronic inflammatory disease
The critical importance of gut health is getting more attention. A significant proportion of your immune system resides in your gastrointestinal tract, which means optimizing your gut microbiome will have far-reaching effects on your physical health and emotional well-being.
Mounting scientific evidence also continues to suggest a large component of nutrition centers on nourishing health-promoting bacteria in your gut (and elsewhere in and on your body). Take care of these beneficial bacteria and you’ll keep harmful microbes in check and shore up your protection against chronic disease.
