Not all probiotic doses are equal. We break down what CFU counts mean, why strain diversity often matters more than volume, and how to read a label without being misled.
Evidence-based writing on the gut-skin connection, probiotic science, digestive health, and building habits that last.
Researchers used to treat the gut and skin as completely separate systems. A growing body of evidence now shows they're in constant conversation — and what happens in your intestines can directly influence what appears on your complexion.
