Product Spotlight: Prosper

Are you still craving those delicious holiday foods and desserts? Me too! And if you’re like me, you’ve had way too much, and your body is noticing. 

January is the perfect time to take back our gut health and help our body absorb the vital nutrients it needs to feel good and stay healthy during cold and flu season! 

Prosper is the solution! Prosper is a unique and powerful combination of prebiotics, probiotics, and digestive enzymes. Let’s define this a bit more…

What are prebiotics and probiotics? 
Prebiotics: Specialized plant fiber that acts as food for the good bacteria and stimulates growth among the pre-existing good bacteria. 
Probiotics: Tiny living organisms that are crucial to the body’s ability to digest and absorb nutrients! They are strains of bacteria that add to the good bacteria in your digestive system. 

Prosper is different from other probiotic supplements. 
Prosper is in spore form, so nearly 100% can survive the harsh conditions of the stomach and safely find a home in the GI tract—right where they should be. Wow! That’s 4 billion CFU’s working to support optimal gut health!

Why is that a big deal? 
We hear a lot about getting enough probiotics in our system, but why do we need probiotics? The immune system protects our body from harmful substances and germs. If our immune system runs smoothly, we don’t notice it’s there, but we get sick if it stops working because it’s weak or can’t fight aggressive germs. Not fun!

Our bodies constantly have both good and harmful bacteria in and on them. When we get an infection, the harmful bacteria take over, our system gets out of balance, and we get sick. Good bacteria are needed to get rid of the harmful bacteria, return the balance to our body, and restore and maintain health. Probiotics are the good bacteria, and Prosper is an excellent way to add good bacteria back into your body! 

Did you know 80% of the immune system’s functionality is located in the gut? Keeping our digestive tract healthy can help protect us against disease, reduce inflammation, and improve irritable bowel syndrome. Those are all excellent reasons to include Prosper in our daily routine. 

Here are some other issues that are benefitted by increasing probiotic intake through food and supplementation:

Research has shown a strong connection between the gut and the brain. The gut is where our daily nutrient intake is absorbed from the food we eat and the supplements we take. On the other hand, the brain is the highest consumer of energy in the body. This energy comes in the form of those vital nutrients we take in. So, if the gut is absorbing lots of nutrients, we know our brain is getting them. Healthy gut, healthy brain!

What is my favorite thing about Prosper? I LOVE the watermelon flavor! To me, it reminds me of eating watermelon and popsicles outside on a sunny day! I love it!! Besides being good for me, I really enjoy the taste. (I have to be careful not to eat all 30 sticks in one day.) They are so fun to take–you just pour them into your mouth. Super fun and super easy! 

It’s a new year, and if you’re like me, you like to evaluate and get motivated to set high goals for good health for 2022. Prosper is just the thing to help you achieve goals like eating healthier foods, exercising, detoxing and cleansing your system, getting those beneficial bacteria back in order, and FEELING GOOD!
