A probiotic is a live microorganism that provides health benefits , as it helps improve the good bacteria found in our body. You will find them naturally in fermented foods such as kefir, yogurt, pickles and other pickles... When these microorganisms (bacteria, viruses and fungi) coexist in balance , we speak of normal microbiota .

Prebiotics , for their part, are nutrients of the previous ones and in general, have the particularity of being rich in fiber . They are present in whole grain seeds and in certain fruits and vegetables such as bananas, artichokes, green leafy vegetables, onions, garlic and soybeans.

SKIN MICROBIOME

Surely the term microbiome sounds familiar to you, since in recent years, the intestinal microbiome has gained great prominence due to its obvious influence on both health and various diseases . However, not only the intestine has a microbiome. The skin also has its own.

The skin microbiome has its origin at the moment of our birth , as soon as we come into contact with the outside world . It is at that moment when numerous bacteria colonize it to develop our immune system and thus prepare our skin to face various external aggressions. This is how our first line of defense is born.

These bacteria, which are capable of multiplying and surviving on our skin, form the resident flora along with viruses and fungi . They will remain on it like an invisible layer, forming a protective barrier and thus contributing to its good health. In addition, there are other bacteria that do not have the ability to adhere to our skin, but are deposited on it from the environment and are there temporarily. In this case, we are talking about the transient flora that can be responsible for various skin problems or infections when the microbiome is not balanced and the resident bacteria that protect the skin cannot fight potential harmful germs.
