The microbiome is like a community of all the living organisms in your digestive tract and even your brain!
Now I know what you must be thinking: I have living organisms in my body?
The answer is yes! But don’t be afraid. These organisms are here to help you. Beneficial bacteria live in your microbiome and help fight against sickness, along with other jobs you don’t know they’re doing.
When this group of organisms is in balance the way God designed, your body is happy. A well-balanced microbiome can mean a longer life, beautiful skin, a sharp memory, and a strong immune system.
Yet, our balance may be off. This is called dysbiosis, and it brings a dark cloud of unhappiness with it: immune system failure, colds, viruses, even eczema, and acne.
So, it’s important to make sure our microbiomes are in balance!
