You\u2019ve probably heard that probiotics<\/a> are key to keeping your gut microbiome happy<\/a>. But with so many probiotic supplements<\/a> out there, how do you know which probiotic is right for you? Keep reading to learn more about probiotics<\/a> and details on HUM’s different formulations.<\/p>\n\n\n

What are Probiotics?<\/h2>\n\n\n

Before diving straight into the different types of probiotics HUM offers, let\u2019s first better understand probiotics and why they\u2019re important.<\/p>\n\n\n

Probiotics are the live bacteria and yeasts that live in your body and keep your gut healthy. These friendly bacteria patrol your intestines and keep your digestive system running smoothly by helping digest food, destroy harmful pathogens, and produce vitamins.<\/p>\n\n\n

Benefits of Taking Probiotics<\/h2>\n\n\n

Probiotics are especially helpful following a round of antibiotics<\/a>, as these drugs kill both infectious and<\/em> healthy bacteria. When healthy bacteria are killed off, harmful bacteria flourish. This proliferation can lead to indigestion, breakouts, and\/or imbalances in the vaginal microbiome.<\/p>\n\n\n

While more research is necessary to fully understand the benefits of types of bacteria, we do know that different probiotic strains support your body in different ways. For instance, certain strains can support brain health and reduce stress, while others help reduce acne and inflammation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

For this reason, HUM offers four probiotic supplements. Gut Instinct, Skin Squad, Private Party, and Fan Club all address different wellness and beauty concerns with their unique probiotic combinations.<\/p>\n\n\n
