Gut Health
For a healthy gut feeling
The gut plays a central role in health and well-being. In addition to digestion and energy supply, it is an important part of the immune system – around 80% of active immune cells are located there. If the intestine becomes unbalanced, this can lead to a variety of complaints: not only digestive problems (e.g. diarrhoea, flatulence and constipation), but also immune deficiency, nutrient deficiency and fatigue can result and impair health.
More and more people are recognising the importance of a healthy intestine and want to actively improve it. A healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, exercise and relaxation can promote intestinal health. The various components of the intestinal barrier play a decisive role in this.
Why is the gut so important for our well-being?
It is rightly said that ‘health begins in the gut’! Only a healthy gut can perform its digestive function: it extracts energy and nutrients from food and makes them usable for the body. In addition, a large part of the immune system is located in the gut, making it particularly important for the body's defence system. The so-called intestinal barrier plays a crucial role in this. It consists of three elements – the microbiome, the mucin layer and the intestinal wall cells – which are finely tuned to each other and whose interaction is essential for intestinal function.
