Your gut is a very busy place!  It processes food, turning your dinner into nutrients that your body’s cells use for energy and growth.  In your gut, friendly bacteria like GI Jake help with digestion and also help to fight microbes to make sure you stay healthy.  Your body also has amazing defences outside and inside your body which work together to fight microbes.  Your clever defence systems even remember microbes they have seen before - if they try to invade again, your body is ready! 

So much happens in your gut, it is always on the go - click on the links to find out more!
