If you find that your skin quality is declining and fine lines are increasing, even using skincare products to no avail, it may be that there is a problem with your gut health, especially in young people, and the phenomenon of premature aging should be taken seriously.

As the largest digestive and immune organ of the human body, the health of the gut has an extremely important impact on the health and development of the whole body. Once there is a problem with the intestines, the impact on the person is profound.

According to studies, 90% of diseases in the human body are associated with intestinal problems. The decline of intestinal function may not only lead to malabsorption of nutrients and weakened immunity, but also may induce serious diseases such as digestive tract tumors, liver disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, there is an old saying, "The old intestine of a person declines first, and the health of the intestine first nourishes the intestine".

So, how can we maintain our gut health and prevent premature aging and other health problems?

Often, intestinal aging or problems are caused by an imbalance in the intestinal flora. In the intestines, there are hundreds of millions of microflora, which are roughly divided into three categories: beneficial bacteria, neutral bacteria, and harmful bacteria.

Under normal circumstances, the good, neutral and harmful bacteria in the intestine are in a state of dynamic equilibrium, and the beneficial bacteria are usually the dominant group of bacteria, outnumbering the harmful bacteria. However, once the number of harmful bacteria increases and becomes dominant, this balance is disrupted, which can lead to the appearance of intestinal problems.

Therefore, the most important thing to restore or maintain the health of the gut is to ensure that the microflora in the gut is balanced. How?

First of all, we need to ensure that the number of beneficial bacteria is sufficient. The most effective way is to deliver beneficial bacteria directly to the intestines, such as probiotic preparations and lactic acid bacteria powder. By supplementing the beneficial bacteria in the intestine, the growth of beneficial bacteria can be promoted, the growth of harmful bacteria can be inhibited, and the dynamic balance of intestinal ecology can be restored.

Secondly, it is equally important to develop good living habits. Generally speaking, the destruction of the intestinal ecosystem is caused by excessive stress, mental stress, improper diet, drug abuse, etc. Therefore, in our daily life, we should try to avoid these unfavorable factors and cultivate a good lifestyle.

For example, avoid overeating, reduce the intake of high-fat and high-fat foods, and eat more vegetables, fruits and grains rich in dietary fiber; Maintain a regular schedule and avoid staying up late; At the same time, do not abuse drugs, overuse of antibiotics can inhibit the growth of intestinal flora.
