Gut Health: The Beauty Connection

True radiance begins deeper than the surface of the skin. At the centre is your gut — a powerful ecosystem influencing energy, immunity, mood, and even the clarity of your complexion.

When the gut is imbalanced, the effects ripple outward. Research links digestive health not only to bloating and discomfort, but also to skin concerns, hormonal fluctuations, and reduced vitality. In other words: when the gut struggles, it shows everywhere. ¹²

The Inner Network

Your gut is home to trillions of microorganisms known as the microbiota — a living network that breaks down nutrients, defends against harmful bacteria, and regulates immune responses. ³

Keeping this network balanced is essential. That’s where prebiotics and probiotics come in:

• Prebiotics act like nourishment for beneficial bacteria.

• Probiotics are the good bacteria themselves.

Together, they help create harmony within the gut — supporting overall wellbeing and glowing skin from the inside out. ⁴⁵

Two Key Ingredients

• Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum (PHGG): A gentle, soluble fibre that supports regularity and digestive comfort. Unlike heavy fibres, PHGG is light, tasteless, and effortless to integrate into daily routines. Clinical studies show it can reduce bloating and abdominal discomfort while encouraging microbiome balance. ⁶⁷

• LactoSpore® Probiotic: A clinically studied probiotic strain valued for stability and reliability. Research highlights its role in easing digestive upsets, supporting mood, and reinforcing the gut–skin connection by contributing to outer radiance. ⁸⁹
