Does your child often suffer from tummy issues, mummies?

Well, if you’ve never heard of synbiotics, you may just want to give them a try.

But first let’s learn how the gut influences your digestion, immunity, and your overall health.

Read on to find out more!

The Importance of Children’s Gut Health

Children suffer from gastrointestinal issues as much as adults do. From diarrhoea to constipation, to irritable bowel syndrome.

And having these conditions can prevent them from experiencing a happy, healthy childhood.

Improving your child’s gut health not only heals any bowel disorders they may have. It can also offer a ton of benefits for their overall health and wellbeing.

Here’s why it’s important to protect, heal and maintain your child’s gut health while they’re still young.

Gut Health Affects Immunity

When gut health is thrown out of whack, it puts your body (and your entire immune system) at risk for all sorts of complications.

Allergies and infections are just the tip of the iceberg.

Common signs of compromised immunity include fatigue, slow wound healing, longer sick days, chronic stress and of course stomach issues

Bowel disorders like those mentioned earlier, have been known to impair gut health, which further compromises your immune system.

Especially if you already have immunity issues to begin with.

When kids experience immune dysfunction, they may fall sick more frequently. This means they are not able to attend school or develop important socio-emotional skills.

Gut Health Affects Brain Function

The gut is often referred to as ‘the second brain’ because of the many important ways they are connected and communicate with one another.

This is what scientists call the gut-brain connection.

Therefore, a healthy gut is also important in supporting healthy brain development.

But if gut health is compromised, your mental health may suffer as a result.

In fact, studies show that gut issues like IBD are responsible for a multitude of cognitive issues such as depression, anxiety brain fog and poor concentration.

For children, having these conditions can affect their learning and their ability to retain new information from their surroundings.

Gut Health Affects Your Overall Wellbeing

When gut health is compromised, the level of bad bacteria in the gut increases.

This results in the release of inflammatory responses that can trigger a wealth of health issues that extend beyond the digestive system.

These include weight gain, high blood sugar, high cholesterol and even heart disease.

In fact, studies have shown that those with bowel disorders and weak gut health are more likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease later in life.

Fortunately, there’s a way to prevent, and even reverse, bowel disorders so that your child can learn, play and explore the world without anything holding them back!

And this starts with healing their gut.

Heal Your Child’s Gut with Synbiotics

First, let’s chat about probiotics and prebiotics. What is the difference between the two?

Probiotics are the naturally occurring beneficial bacteria that grow in our intestines, while prebiotics are a natural dietary fibre that supports the health and maintenance of those probiotic bacteria.

In their combined form, they are known as synbiotics.

If your child maintains a proper diet and leads an active lifestyle, synbiotics act as a gastrointestinal superfood. Working hand-in-hand to replenish, boost, and re-balance the digestive system so that it will work at optimal levels.

With synbiotics, you get the best of both worlds!

By maintaining your child’s gut health with synbiotics, you are able to resolve any digestive issues they may be experiencing.

With better digestion and nutrient absorption, a healthy gut is able to support your child’s overall growth and development.

As a result, their immune system also gets a major boost!

A strong immunity not only protects against infections and allergies but also those heals inflammatory bowel issues that arise from food sensitivity and environmental triggers like irritable bowel syndrome and lactose intolerance.

So, you see, everything is connected; a healthy improvement in the digestive system creates a ripple effect.

To heal the gut is to heal the entire body.
