Probiotics & Supplements

Along with eating certain foods and avoiding others, you can use probiotics and other digestive supplements to keep your gut healthy! Probiotics are made up of good bacteria that help keep your body healthy and working well. This good bacteria helps you in several different ways, like fighting off bad bacteria when you have too much of it, helping you feel better.

When it comes to digestion, my favorite supplement is Digestx by Seacret, which helps with the digestion of proteins, carbs, fats, fiber, gluten, dairy, and soy. Before using Digestx, I had really bad acid reflux and medication wasn’t working well for me. Since taking Digestx, my acid reflux has improved and I feel altogether better than I was feeling before taking Digestx every day. You can learn more about Digestx by visiting this link.

Whether it is Digestx or your favorite probiotic, taking a supplement every day will improve your overall gut health.
