Probiotics are a supplement that can benefit everyone. The health of your gut can determine the function of almost every system in the body, including digestion, immunity, mental health, skin quality, heart health, and more. By taking a daily probiotic, you can help support a healthy gut microbiome.

With so many options on the market, it’s important to choose a quality probiotic. Here are a few tips to consider when making your selection: 

• Colony forming units, or CFUs are the number of bacteria a probiotic contains. 
• Select a probiotic with at least 1 billion CFUs but the more, the better. 
• The probiotic should contain at least 5 different strains of bacteria to support the different strains of bacteria in your gastrointestinal system. 
• A common misconception is that a good probiotic must be refrigerated, but depending on the strain, and if it is a live culture or freeze dried, it may not need to be refrigerated – and will be equally as effective!

Metagenics has numerous probiotic products, some formulated specifically for children and women! They also offer some formulas with varying strains used for specific conditions. Check out their entire offering at https://letourneauspharmacy.metagenics.com.
