Meet Life 9 and Mighty Pro

Your gut health and immune system are closely linked. Did you know that approximately sixty to eighty percent of your immune system is located within your digestive tract? The gut is often the first entry point for exposure to pathogens and your gut immune system needs to be thriving and healthy in order to avoid illness.

Each person has thousands of different types of bacteria in their digestive system, good and bad. Experts agree that your gut flora should be balanced with approximately 85 percent good bacteria and 15 percent bad bacteria. Probiotics, or good bacteria, help us break down food and absorb nutrients. When we have too much bad bacteria in our system and start to feel sick, many people choose to take antibiotics because they help kill bacteria. Unfortunately, antibiotics kill the good bacteria that support our overall health along with the bad bacteria. Having enough good bacteria in your system is just as important as not having bad bacteria in your system.

Probiotics help maintain and restore beneficial bacteria to your digestive tract. Healthy bacteria also helps with the activation of immune functions in your cells. Young Living offers two robust probiotic supplements that will support optimal gut health while offering several other benefits. Life 9® and MightyPro are must-haves to keep your family feeling great

Life 9

Life 9 is Young Living’s proprietary, high-potency probiotic. It contains 17 billion live cultures from nine beneficial bacteria strains for full-spectrum gut support. It promotes healthy digestion, supports gut health, and helps maintain normal intestinal function for overall support of a healthy immune system.* Life 9 has a specially designed delayed-release capsule, which makes the bacteria available only when the capsule hits the intestines. For optimal benefits, take one capsule every night following a meal.

MightyPro

MightyPro is a unique, synergistic blend of prebiotics and probiotics in a supplement specifically formulated for children. They are packaged in easy, one-dose packets that can be taken anywhere you are off to this school year, and best of all, they taste delicious! MightyPro features over 8 billion active, live cultures to support gastrointestinal and immune health in children. That means fewer missed days of school and day care, and more playing with friends and family. MightyPro also includes prebiotics, which probiotics feed off of, making MightyPro an easy, 2-in-1 option.

MightyPro was formulated for kids ages 2 and older but is also appropriate for adults. It can be taken straight out of the pouch like a pixie stick, or you can add it to some favorite foods like applesauce, yogurt, or juice—just not to anything that is hot or warm in temperature. MightyPro is a MUST for your children!
