Understanding the Micronutrient-Gut Health Connection

The relation between micronutrients and gut health are inter-dependent. While beneficial gut bacteria help manufacture vitamins (B12, K, B6, B5, B3, folate and biotin), enhance absorption of minerals, fight off pathogens, digest food, and metabolize drugs, vitamins and minerals from foods, on the other hand, help enhance immunity, modulate gut microbiota, decrease inflammation and enhance the overall gut health.
