Tina Anderson | Probiotic Myths: How Spore-Based Science Radically Transforms Gut Health For Families

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 658

Are your probiotics helping you heal your gut or are you just wasting your money?

Tina Anderson, Co-Founder of Just Thrive, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 658, to explain why most probiotics are not real probiotics, how spore-based probiotics heal the gut microbiome, why gut health is essential for your mental health and brain function, and what the healing protocol for the gut consists of.

"99.99% of probiotics die by the time they get to the intestines. If a probiotic needs to be refrigerated in order to stay alive, it wouldn't even survive on the store shelf which means it could never survive your body temperature. Spore-based probiotic has this endospore shell around itself which allows it to be a very hardy organism and survive the journey from the mouth through the gastric system into the intestines." - Tina Anderson
