We all know that it’s important to take care of our gut microbiome, but how much has your nasal microbiome featured in your awareness?
Research shows that dysbiosis (an imbalance of good/bad bacteria) in your nose is associated with increased risk for:
– sinusitis
– bronchitis
– ear infections
– asthma and other allergic respiratory diseases
Ways to take care of your nose microbiome:
– Fermented foods
– Chewable probiotics
– Walk in the woods
– Avoid things that harm your nose microbiome like spray products that have antimicrobial action or synthetic chemicals, (even cleaning products like laundry detergents literally get up your nose).
– Avoid sugars and refined carbohydrates
