Strike a balance on gut health

THE gut is home to 70 per cent of our immune system so it’s important to take care of it.That starts with a good diet and exercise certainly helps but that’s rarely enough to keep our digestion in good working order. We need to target what’s going wrong and put it right – something that’s easy to do once you know how.

There are trillions of microorganisms that inhabit the digestive system, and they have the name of gut flora.

Some of these are as beneficial as the name sounds, yet others can be harmful.

What’s needed is a balance between the two – and the best way to do that is with a scientifically formulated supplement.

Bioglan is the leader in the field and the Biotic Balance range, formulated with high quality live cultures, is the answer.

The scientifically studied strains in the 10-strong collection can help us – children too – maintain the gut, and in turn, take care of the immune system.

And, despite the live cultures that the products contain, there is no need to keep Bioglan Biotic Balance in the fridge – you can store it in the cupboard, pop it in your bag and even carry it with you on holiday, making it part of a simple everyday routine.

A taste of Bioglan…

The latest addition to the Biotic Balance family, these raspberry-flavoured gummies are an easy way to provide the vitamin C that helps maintain and support the immune system.They’re formulated with 1.25 billion cells to keep your gut smiling.

INULIN (250G)

Inulin, a fibre sourced from chicory root, is non-digestible so it passes through the digestive system to reach the large intestine. Once there, it is fermented by the gut bacteria, providing them with the ability to multiple and grow and so contributing to bowel function while naturally promoting digestive wellbeing. Bioglan Inulin is tasteless and can be dissolved in water or juice or added to cereals, or baking and other food.
