Our gut bacteria helps us stay healthy in a number of ways. These include:
1. they make healthy vitamins for our body by harvesting nutrients from the food we eat;
2. they prevent anxiety and depression;
3. they can prevent neurological diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, autism, and Alzheimer's;
4. they prevent "leaky gut" which contribute to obesity and diabetes 2;
5. they balance our immune system and control inflammation;
6. they produce serotonin, the "happy chemical"; and
7. they help prevent heart disease.
