The Gut-Skin Connection

Do you know that the skin and gut are connected? The skin is an extension of your gut; when there is an imbalance in the gut, it can show up in the skin. Here’s what you should do to keep your gut and skin in good condition.

Gut health and your skin are in sync with one another. Skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema are linked to your gut health, and poor digestion can also lead to acne. The collection of good bacteria in your intestines and colon not only helps digestion, immunity, and other body functions, it might have a serious role in the health of your skin too. A simple term is that when your gut is happy, your skin is happy also. It will improve your skin sensitivity by reducing water loss from the skin’s surface, which is an essential characteristic for radiant, even and healthy skin.

You have probably heard that many times, to have a healthier gut, you need to practice a proper diet and ensure enough daily fiber or vitamin intake from fruits and vegetables. While diet should be the first step, you can also try taking probiotic supplements as they can be a great way to keep your gut flora and skin happy and healthy. Unfamiliar with the difference between prebiotics and probiotics? Probiotics are the live bacteria and yeasts that live in your body and keep your gut healthy. These friendly bacteria patrol your intestines and keep your digestive system running smoothly. Prebiotics are like fuel for your probiotics. Taking them together ensures you feed the good bacteria in your body as efficiently as possible.

So, where should you start? Find out below how the products can improve your gut health and subsequently improve your skin’s overall appearance.

Besides maintaining your feminine health, do you know that VOFINA™ supports bacteria restoration in your gut too? This 2-in1 formulation is packed with 20 billion of smarter probiotics and prebiotic with a superfruit called The Lingonberry to promote the body’s natural microbial balance in your body. The smarter probiotics are extra hardworking and able to live longer in your body to prevent unwanted bacteria from intruding your body.

Your ultimate gut defense! MOIIVA™ is formulated with synbiotic, the synergy of both prebiotic and probiotic. It activates the gut defense by promoting the growth of billions of beneficial microbes and helps maintain a stable microbial community.
