From rapid weight loss diets to the latest hype on superfoods, the public’s fixation to look and feel healthier seems to have taken over our daily lives. While there is a lot of helpful information online, it remains to be a little-known fact that the key to unlocking health and wellness lies from within, beginning with proper gut care.

Thus, Erceflora Kiddie has relaunched into Erceflora Gut Defense, a probiotic drink that helps enhance the intestinal ecology, and Erceflora Gut Restore, which aids the enhancement of natural resistance to intestinal infection of children and adults.

“The gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem that plays an important role in digestion, nutritional absorption, and the immunological function of the human body,” says Dr. Yvonne Marie Ferrer, ASEA Medical Lead. “Moments of stress, foreign environments, improper food habits, and even select antibiotics can disrupt this ecosystem, often leading to gut imbalance.”

Gut health plays an active role in the body at any age, and an imbalanced gut can lead to a variety of health problems, including digestive difficulties, lower immunity, and even psychological disorders.

So, here are three signs that you are dealing with an unhealthy gut, according to the makers of Erceflora:

1. You constantly struggle with an upset stomach.

Abdominal pain, frequent bowel discomfort, and diarrhea are probably the most common symptoms of an unhealthy gut. Whether your stomach aches are caused by the consumption of uncleaned food and water, intake of certain medications, or simply changes in your diet, these factors can determine the way our gut functions.

2. You often experience the symptoms of a “lazy gut.”

Nausea, inconsistent stools, and bloating are all signs that you have a what is called a “lazy gut.” Lazy gut is usually accompanied by constipation or painful bowel movement, a condition characterized by slow or sluggish digestion, hindering your body to absorb nutrients and process food efficiently.

3. You usually have low mood and energy levels.

Astonishingly, the gut also plays a major role in mood and energy regulation. People with chronic fatigue, depressive episodes, or poor sleep patterns may be silently dealing with imbalances in the gut as well, since majority of the body’s serotonin is produced in the gut.
