| intestinal flora |
The sum of all bacteria and fungi that live in the intestines. A healthy intestinal flora supports the breaking down of nutrients, trains the immune system in the intestines, fights off pathogens and helps the body build the vitamin E and K. An unbalanced intestinal flora (eg when there are too many fungi or too little beneficial bacteria) can lead to many health problems.
