HOW CAN META PROBIOTIC IMMUNE BOOST YOUR IMMUNE HEALTH?
Your gastrointestinal tract contains tens of trillions of microorganisms, mostly bacteria, often referred as ‘gut microbiota’ or ‘gut flora’. A balanced gut microbiota is important to ensure healthy digestive functioning as well as other lesser-known benefits like the production of certain vitamins and supporting healthy immune system function.

There are many steps you can take to help keep your gut microbiota healthy and balanced – like maintaining a healthy diet and eating a range of fresh, whole foods, like fruits, veggies, legumes, beans and whole grains. Taking a probiotic supplement may also have a beneficial effect on the gut microbiota.

Studies have shown that certain probiotic strains have a beneficial effect on immune health. For example, a clinical trial in healthy adults found that those who took Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (BB-12®) in a once daily capsule had a better immune response to a flu vaccination compared with those who did not take the probiotic*.2

BB-12® probiotic interacts with your immune system through immune cells located in your gut and helps improve immune system function to support you through your busy life. The strain is now available in META PROBIOTIC DAILY GUT HEALTH + IMMUNE DEFENCE as a convenient once daily capsule! Try yours today!
