If your recovery feels slow, sore, or inconsistent, it might not be your protein.
It might be your gut.
Muscle recovery doesn’t start in your shaker bottle. It starts in your digestive system. Your muscles can only repair as fast as your gut can absorb and deliver nutrients.
That’s where probiotics come in.
When your gut bacteria are balanced, they help break down protein more efficiently, improve amino acid absorption, and produce compounds that reduce inflammation. The result? Less soreness, faster repair, and better performance in your next workout.
But when the gut is inflamed or out of balance, your body struggles to absorb nutrients. Even a perfect post-workout meal can fall short if your gut can’t use it properly.
Probiotics help support the gut lining, calm inflammation, and regulate stress hormones like cortisol, turning your recovery window into a real advantage.
Your workout creates the stress.
Your gut determines how well you rebuild.
If you want better recovery, fewer aches, and more consistent progress, don’t just focus on what you eat after the gym.
Focus on the gut that’s absorbing it.
