Our marvelous microbiota

Picture your gut as a big city. Well, a “Microbiota City” to be more precise.

Bacteria, viruses, fungi (including yeasts), parasites… Your gut microbiota is composed of all these living microorganisms1.

You should also know that you have bacteria in every other part of your body as well: in the ears2, mouth3, skin4, lungs5, urinary tract6, and even in the vagina7.

Get to understand what each of them does, the role they play in our body, and how each of us should take care of our microbiota.

Environment and microbiota: how does it affect your health?

Did you know that nature, pollution, and your living environment can influence the composition of your microbiota, and ultimately your health?

Probiotics, prebiotics, what are their benefits on your microbiota?

You probably have heard that eating plenty of fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins, minerals and that contain also prebiotics and probiotics is the best way to strengthen your microbiota and stimulate your immune system. How? Where can we find them?
