Probiotics for everyday health

Probiotics are microorganisms that work to support your health by assisting in the body’s natural digestive process.

Trillions of good-for-you microorganisms reside in your digestive tract, helping you function at your best every day. Called probiotics, these microorganisms outnumber your human cells 10 to 1, and they play a role in helping you digest foods, fend off diseases, and even create vitamins.

They’re closely related to a term you might be familiar with — the microbiome, which refers to a mysterious, microscopic world in your gut that scientists are rigorously studying.
