It is important to treat food as medicine, food is what are bodies use in order to support our immune systems, our gut microbiome and detoxifying system such including organs such as kidneys, skin, liver lungs and digestive system, therefore supporting our bodies with the correct nutrients is essential for health and longevity.
Our microbiome is our very own ecosystem containing microbiota. Eating probiotics and enzyme blends leads to a healthier gut microbiome, it allows our gut to become more diverse, which then allows for more anti-inflammatory compounds your gut produces. This makes your body less likely to develop inflammatory diseases
The bacteria in our gut controls our metabolism, communicates with our brain, its where 70% of our immune system lives, Therefore processed food disrupts 70% of our immune system.

Bifidobacterium Breve (B-3) and 40 given placebo, the B-3 group were shown to have body fat mass and body fat percentage reduce in weeks in weeks 8-12 given the suggestion this strain can reduce body fat in healthy adults (8).
Bifidobacterium Lactis
Study suggest this particular strain can assist in improving mood and gastrointestinal symptoms (10). In addition can help in glucose tolerance and was shown to reduce fat mass in animal models (11). This strain was shown to change the gut and improve immunity (12).
