The 4th step in supporting a healthy digestive system for a healthier immune system is reinoculation. When the digestive tract is damaged from toxins, processed foods, stress, antibiotics, etc., it’s important to provide extra supplementation needed for healing. Some especially helpful nutrients are the following:

  • Vitamins C, D, and Zinc. (1, 2)

  • L-Glutamine. (3, 4)

  • Probiotics. (5)

  • Omega-3 Fatty Acids (Fish Oil). (6)

  • Digestive Enzymes. (7)

  • Berberine. (8)
