As we further our understanding of the human microbiome, it becomes increasingly apparent that these microorganisms affect much more than our gut. One area of interest is the gut-brain axis – the system which allows signals to be sent from the gut to the brain and vice versa. An example of this is how stress can cause appetite changes, or nerves can cause 'butterflies in the stomach'. To help support a healthy microbiome, Bio-Kult Migrea has included 2 billion microorganisms across 14 different strains in each capsule. To complement this, each capsule provides magnesium and vitamin B6; two essential nutrients, which support the performance of the nervous system and psychological function. Vitamin B6 is also needed for hormonal balance. One issue with many probiotics is that the microorganisms are partially destroyed by the harsh environment of the stomach. However, this is not a problem with Bio-Kult, as the capsule design ensures the full goodness reaches the small intestine where it can flourish. Unlike many other probiotics, Bio-Kult Migrea does not need to be refrigerated.
