GUT HEALTH 101?

Our gut is at the center of our body and our well-being. Until recently, the gut was ignored. We now know that the gut does a lot more than digest food and absorb nutrients. Our gut hosts trillions of micro-organisms (bacteria) that control and influence how we feel physically, mentally and emotionally. It acts as the command center for the 5 axis of human health: immunity, metabolic, hormonal balance, cognition and gene expression.

The gut is composed of good and harmful bacteria. It is important to nourish the good bacteria so they grow and crowd out the bad ones. Enter PREBIOTICS. PREBIOTICS are plant-based dietary fiber that nourish the healthy bacteria in your stomach.

WHY IS GUTZY GOOD FOR OUR GUT/DIGESTION?

Gutzy is packed with PREBIOTICS – 5-6g in each pouch – that nourish the good bacteria (probiotics) we naturally have in our gut. The good bacteria in the gut are responsible for the body’s healthy foundation. What we eat either helps or hinders them in doing their job. PREBIOTICS and plant-based foods nourish it to keep the body healthy and aids in digestion.

WHAT ARE PREBIOTICS?

PREBIOTICS are plant fiber that nourishes the good bacteria in our gut – and fiber is broadly recognized to be important to maintain good health.

WHAT IS THE PREBIOTIC IN gutzy?

Gutzy sources the highest-quality organic PREBIOTIC Acacia, from the the acacia tree in Senegal.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREBIOTIC AND PROBIOTIC?

When you eat PROBIOTICS, you are attempting to add live bacteria to the trillions already living in your body. PREBIOTICS are the food that nourishes the good bacteria already living in your gut so they can grow and flourish to keep you healthy.

WHEN SHOULD I CONSUME gutzy?

Gutzy is ideal in the morning, as a light healthy snack to begin your day, 2 hours before or immediately after a workout, and anytime you need a snack to help you power through your day.

HOW MANY GUTZY POUCHES SHOULD I EAT EACH DAY?

10g of prebiotic Acacia have been shown to increase beneficial gut bacteria over 4 weeks. 1 pouch of Gutzy contains 5-6g of prebiotic Acacia, which is why we recommend eating 1-2 pouches a day.

WHY IS gutzy REFRIGERATED?

The unique way we select and blend all our ingredients, including the highest-grade quality of our hand-picked premium Senegalese PREBIOTIC Acacia, requires gutzy to be refrigerated to preserve freshness and maximum potency. Gutzy is gently pasteurized.

HOW LONG CAN I KEEP gutzy OUT OF THE FRIDGE?

Unlike yogurt and kombucha, gutzy products are not as sensitive to temperature fluctuations. Gutzy may be kept out of the fridge during the day as long as the product is not exposed to excessively high temperatures. Once opened, consume cold within 24 hours.

WHERE CAN I FIND gutzy IN-STORE?

You’ll find gutzy in the refrigerated case in produce near the fresh-cut fruit cups, the ‘grab and go’ snack set or in Natural Products coolers near probiotic beverages like Kombucha.  Search for a store near you on ourWhere to Buy page.

CAN I RECYCLE gutzy POUCHES?
