Pathogenic Bacteria
Not all bacteria in your gut are friendly. Some can cause inflammation, gas, or digestive discomfort. These are called pathogenic bacteria.
The good news? You can help keep them in check by consistently feeding your beneficial bacteria — the ones that support digestion, immunity, and balance. The right fibers act like fuel for your good microbes, helping them grow and take up space that harmful ones might otherwise occupy.
