YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT
The importance of gut health is accepted universally ---
EATING certain foods that are good digestible (holistic)--- accessible sources (and the correct amounts-dose needed) of pre/probiotics (fermented ones-yogurt, miso, kimchi, sauerkraut to name a few)...is ideal-but is not realistically on the menu, for summer travelers hitting the road, busy stay at home types or fussy food nibblers of all ages.
While immune boosting supplements are not regulated by the FDA-people nonetheless rely on them for daily doses of must haves for the gut microbiome...especially now when the nutritional value of what we eat/digest often seems a real toss-up these days-coupled with the seemingly bloomin' boomin' proliferation of auto-immune disease sufferers. Yikes.
Fortunately independent analysis of high quality supplements does exist... and should be 'on the list' for those looking to boost their daily intakes of nutrition aids.
Recently we got intro-ed to a fairly new nutritional supplement company, HELLO HEALTH ® founded by a mom on a mission (Pamela Wirth), plus an impressive advisory board of individuals with deep creds in science and medicine.
Healthy eaters alert: HelloHealth®'s BELLY GREAT ™prebiotics/probiotics supplements-in easy to take capsules-contains 15 (alive) strains of healthy bacteria-plus essential nutrients like Vitamin D3 and Folate (aka Vitamin B 9-essential for healthy cell formation/function)...an ideal way to add some gut plus oomph to one's diet.Another HelloHealth® adult/kid friendly supplement-that's on daily rotation-is a new offering, ImmunoStrong™-with plant botanicals and omega that are total wellness nutritional aids.
We like the easy to take capsule formulation- (no mixing! no blending!)- that contains meaningful amounts of stuff we don't typically eat - yet impacts everything positively including brain health, healthy skin, and anti-inflammatory pain relief (for more info-check out Hello Health®'s own blog post on this).
