The term “gut instinct” has been around for many years but it was only in recent years that scientists have discovered the important role that gut health or the health of the digestive system plays in our overall health.

Together, they form an ecosystem known as the gut microbiome that comprises beneficial, harmful and opportunistic microbes.

Are you also one of those who made a long list of new year resolutions and ended up doing almost nothing? If not, then we surely envy your determination. And, if yes, then we are on the same page as you.
