The Power of Probiotics with Tina Anderson

When we hear “bacteria,” we usually associate it with inflammation and disease, but not all bacteria are created equal. There is such a thing as “good bacteria,” found in probiotics, that can balance the gut and alleviate digestive issues, stimulate antibody production, and reduce inflammation. Which strains of probiotics are best for our individual needs, and how long will the healing process take before we start to see results?

While working in the pharmaceutical industry, Tina and Bill Anderson realized that they were part of a larger healthcare problem. Medications were addressing symptoms, but not the root cause of health issues. After deep diving into natural and progressive solutions, Tina and Bill discovered the life-changing impact that probiotics could have on an individual’s health. The two never looked back at the pharmaceutical industry and founded Just Thrive together, a scientifically-backed probiotics company that empowers people to take their health into their own hands instead of relying on prescription medications.

In this episode, Tina talks to Jen about how probiotics can heal the gut. The two discuss why our gut health matters, what the healing process looks like, and how to find the right probiotic for you.
