A balanced gut microbiota is key to ensuring proper digestive functioning and to promoting overall health. Accordingly, disruption of the healthy balance between good and bad bacteria in the gut can create many symptoms like bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux or nutrients malabsorption and, it can even be the cause of an inflammatory bowel disease. Insufficient number of good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract can also promote the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria that cause infections like urinary tract infections, vaginal infections, systemic yeast overgrowth, ear infections and oral infections.
