What happens to the body when you have a healthy gut?

Published on: Aug. 5, 2025, 9:30 a.m. | Source: The Indian Express

A new movement in wellness is focusing on gut health, driven by post-COVID fitness awareness and a desire for personalized solutions beyond generic health advice. This has led to a proliferation of gut health products, including advanced probiotics, prebiotics, and even at-home microbiome testing kits that offer data-driven, customized guidance. The gut microbiome is recognized for its broad impact on immunity, mental health, metabolism, and skin health, not just digestion. While traditional probiotics and natural remedies like fermented foods are still effective for short-term relief, these newer, science-backed approaches use DNA sequencing and AI to provide personalized dietary and lifestyle advice for long-term health. However, the market faces challenges with consumer trust and the potential for some brands to overpromise benefits without sufficient scientific backing, highlighting the need for consumers to be discerning and to consult healthcare professionals. Ultimately, experts believe this trend represents a positive shift toward preventive, tailored wellness, with gut health becoming a central focus for achieving overall well-being.
