The Good Gut Feeling: Why Gut Health Matters (and How Nectr Kombucha Can Help)

Gut health is having a moment—and for good reason. More than just digestion, your gut plays a major role in immunity, energy, inflammation, and even your mood. It’s where over 70% of your immune system lives, and it’s deeply connected to your brain through what’s called the gut-brain axis.

As we age, our gut microbiome naturally loses some of its diversity. Factors like stress, diet, medications, and just the passage of time can all impact the delicate balance of good bacteria in our digestive system. That’s where probiotics come in.

Why We Need Probiotics—Especially As We Get Older

Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that help keep our gut ecosystem in check. They aid in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, regulating inflammation, and protecting against harmful microbes.

Unfortunately, we don’t always get enough probiotics through our modern diets. As we age, that shortfall becomes more noticeable—leading to issues like bloating, sluggish digestion, and a weaker immune response.

Adding fermented foods and drinks like kombucha into your routine is an easy way to support your gut and feel more balanced from the inside out.
