The good environment in the gut
The intestinal flora, i.e. the bacteria in the large intestine, can be called the body's largest organ. The large intestine contains about a hundred thousand billion bacteria, which is more than the number of cells in the body and that corresponds to more than a kilo of bacteria. The bacteria in the colon help to break down undigested food but also have a number of other important functions in the body. The intestinal bacteria manufacture vitamins, process bile acids and break down toxic substances.

The intestinal flora also protects against the growth of disease-causing bacteria (pathogens) that could otherwise cause an infection. The natural intestinal flora is important for the maturation of the immune cells, not only in the intestine but also in other parts of the body. The intestinal flora consists of both beneficial and disease-causing bacteria that live in symbiosis. When the balance between these is disturbed, the gut is in dysbiosis and that is when you can get stomach problems.

The intestinal flora can be normalized by adding live beneficial bacteria that rebuild the balance in the intestine. These beneficial bacteria often belong to the genera Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium. These are also called lactic acid bacteria because they have the ability to produce lactic acid. They are harmless and are found naturally in the intestines of humans and animals.

Lactic acid bacteria - What is it?
Lactic acid bacteria are as they sound; a collective name for bacteria that can produce lactic acid by breaking down sugars. The lactic acid that is formed lowers the pH value in the large intestine, which means that harmful pathogens do not thrive and thus has a positive effect on our intestinal flora. Fortunately, the good intestinal bacteria thrive in an acidic pH. The largest genera of lactic acid bacteria are called Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium.

Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium
There are many different genera and strains of good intestinal bacteria, of which Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are two well-known genera. Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are the most studied genera with regard to health-promoting properties. The lactic acid bacteria in Good Gut Feeling come from 4 strains; Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis.

Enzymes – Heroes of digestion
Everything we eat must be broken down into smaller components in order for us to absorb the nutrients from the food. This breakdown is largely done with the help of a number of different digestive enzymes that are already in the oral cavity but above all in the stomach. Different enzymes have different tasks where, for example, protease has the task of breaking down proteins, lipase breaks down fats and amylase breaks down carbohydrates. Many of us regularly or sporadically experience that digestion may not work optimally, such as feeling bloated, gassy or having a stomach ache after eating. The reasons for this can be many, but it often helps to supply the body with enzymes that can support the digestive process, especially at larger meals. Good Gut Feeling contains all three of these enzymes: protease, lipase and amylase. In addition, calcium is added as it contributes to the normal functioning of the body's digestive enzymes.

Perfect combination for the stomach
The stomach and intestinal system is a very complex system, and with our stressful lifestyle and not always so healthy diet, it is not surprising if the system clogs up from time to time. The combination of good intestinal bacteria, digestive enzymes and calcium that supports the function of digestive enzymes gives you a very well thought out product with many benefits for your stomach.
