It’s true: a healthy gut is a healthy you all over.

We often shy away from talking about our gut health, but it is literally at the centre of all the action in our bodies and essential to general well being.

A healthy gut can have a profound impact on your immune health, as well as body weightenergy, nutrition and mood. To make matters worse, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is extremely common, with 2 out of 3 sufferers being female (we know – it stinks, ladies).

Although some may suffer from gut-related problems more so than others, caring for your gut more can also improve issues such as bloating, fatigue and skin issues, to name a few. A healthy gut is a healthy you all over.

Looking to improve your gut health? Probiotics are the source of all things good when it comes to this. They encourage the growth of intestinal flora – good bacteria that benefits your intestines. Although there are many probiotic supplements available, nothing beats getting benefits straight from the source.

Here are 10 probiotic rich foods to help keep you and your gut happier and healthier!
