Episode Description
Planning on having a baby? Are you pregnant and having problems? The gut microbiome has been shown to be a key factor for maintaining health outside of pregnancy. A successful birth requires healthy microbial balence in the gut. Probiotic and prebiotic products have shown in many studies their potential health benefits, including the prevention of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Probiotic and prebiotic products have been proven safe for use during pregnancy and lactation. Probiotic used during pregnancy and breastfeeding offer a unique opportunity to influence a range of important maternal and infant outcomes including the prevention and treatment of gestational diabetes, SIBO, depression and anxiety during pregnancy and post-partum, as well as lowering and helping colic, eczema, allergies and more in the baby. Yet the literature is filled with mixed opinions as to the effectiveness of probiotics. Why? We discuss all of this and more on this very important show.
