Self-Care Includes Gut Health
Feeling your best self is important, especially if you are like me; a busy working mom of two active kiddos. Often I find myself forgetting to add self-care to my to do list which leads me feeling sluggish and tired. Now that I am pushing 40 (yikes!) I am finding that it is best for me to try to find ways to incorporate gut health into my self-care routines. Thankfully, I have found an easy way to do this and it has been changing the way I eat and drink.
What Are Probiotics?
Probiotics can help by nurturing the good bacteria you already have and are a natural part of our microbiome. Probiotics play an important role in the maintenance of gut health and general wellbeing, and are live, good bacteria that contribute to digestive health and overall health and wellness. But not all probiotics make it alive to your gut to support healthy digestion. The probiotic, must make it to your gut alive to provide health benefits. Did you know that there are two types of probiotics? These are referred to as vegetative and spore-forming.
Vegetative probiotics are fragile because they typically require constant cold storage. This can limit their accessibility and reduce their efficacy if not kept at an optimal cool temperature.
Spore-forming probiotics have an outer spore or protective shell that protects the beneficial live cultures from damage during digestion and during manufacturing, and adds to a longer shelf life.
Meet BC30™ – A Spore-Forming Probiotic
BC30 is a special type of probiotic known as a “spore-forming probiotic.” This means it has a natural protective shell that ensures it stays alive all the way to your gut, where it can deliver its science-backed digestive health and protein absorption benefits. BC30 is more resilient than traditional probiotics, and you can find it in shelf-stable foods and beverages. Some examples are: bars, teas, snacks, cereals, and protein powders. You will also find BC30 in refrigerated items like juices, kombucha, dairy products, and more. This means you can easily get the benefits of probiotics wherever your day takes you. This is exactly what I need in my busy life!
Like most people I want to know what I am putting into my body and it is great to know that BC30 has a robust safety record and over 25 published clinical studies demonstrating its benefits. No other strain has the same attributes, and the data that supports the benefits of BC30 provide confidence in the efficacy of the probiotic ingredient.

Adding BC30 To My Routine

You can add foods and beverages that include BC30 probiotic to your schedule no matter what time of day you are enjoying those foods and beverages.
Self-care to me includes taking time out of my busy day to sit and start my day with a cup of tea and cozy up with a book. It is so easy to forget to stop and enjoy something like reading a book but also knowing that the tea I am drinking is aiding in supporting my gut health just makes it even better. Even in moments that I would not consider self-care, relaxing after working in the yard all morning for example, I can grab my favorite hydrating drink mix and cool off on the deck. What I love about BC30 is that I can add it to my normal daily routine easily.
