    This document discusses gut health and the importance of maintaining a healthy balance of bacteria in the gut microbiota. An imbalance can be caused by factors like antibiotic overuse, C-section birth, and unhealthy diets, and can lead to a wide range of issues from mood problems to skin conditions to hormone imbalances. Poor gut health allows inflammation to spread throughout the body and cause symptoms. However, simple therapies including modifying one's diet and using probiotics appropriately can help repair the gut and reduce inflammation.
