Our health is not only shaped by the fitness of our immune system—the state of our gut also plays a big part. The integrity of the gut barrier, a healthy and diverse gut microbiota and the metabolites that they produce all contribute to our long-term wellbeing. In this webinar, Sue McKay from NutriLeads will unveil new findings on Benicaros (carrot-derived rhamnogalacturonan-I, or cRG-I), a precision prebiotic fiber with low-dose effects on the gut microbiome and host health.
Discover how cRG-I promotes the growth of health-beneficial bacteria and increases the production of metabolites known to support gut barrier integrity and influence multiple systems connected to healthy aging.
