What is a human Microbiome and how does Advanced Biotic work in its favor?Updated 6 months ago

Shortly after birth, you inherit microbes from your mother and environment, creating your unique microbiome—home to over 40,000 species with countless combinations.


It was once thought that microbes were mostly in the gut and skin, but recent research shows they exist in very low concentrations throughout your body, including your blood, heart, and brain.


Your health relies heavily on the health of your microbiome. As you age, you continue to add microbes, making it vital to maintain a healthy immune system to keep a balance between “good” and “bad” microbes.


The herbs in Vital Plan’s Advanced Biotic support this balance in two ways:


1. They help maintain microbiome balance directly.


2. They support the immune system in managing the body’s microbial population.
