Gut Health & The Immune System: Why It All Starts in the Gut

Your immune system isn’t just about fighting off colds - it’s a complex network that protects your body from the inside out. And surprisingly, about 70% of your immune system is located in your gut. That means your gut health plays a major role in determining how well your body responds to daily stressors, pathogens, and inflammation. At Solis, we recognize this connection, which is why Essential Protein goes beyond just protein - it supports digestive health, immune function, and overall well-being.

The Gut-Immune Connection

Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria, collectively known as the gut microbiome. These bacteria don’t just help digest food — they interact with your immune system, influencing everything from inflammation levels to how your body responds to illness. A balanced microbiome strengthens immune defenses, while an imbalanced one can lead to weakened immunity, inflammation, and digestive discomfort.

How Essential Protein Supports Gut & Immune Health

We designed Essential Protein with ingredients that nourish your gut and, in turn, support your immune system:

• Bacillus coagulans (Probiotic): This spore-forming probiotic survives stomach acid to support digestion, reduce bloating, and balance gut bacteria — a key factor in maintaining immune strength.
• Organic Agave Inulin (Prebiotic): A natural fiber that feeds beneficial gut bacteria, helping them thrive and support immune function.
• Bromelain (Digestive Enzyme): Sourced from pineapples, this enzyme aids digestion and has anti-inflammatory properties that help modulate immune responses.
• Organic Freeze-Dried Banana Powder: A natural source of vitamin C and potassium, supporting immune health and overall cellular function.
• Organic Coconut MCT Powder: Provides healthy fats to fuel the body and support metabolism, energy, and immune resilience.
• Organic Lucuma Fruit: A superfood rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, helping to combat oxidative stress and support immune defenses.

Stronger Immunity Starts with Your Gut

A healthy gut means your immune system is better equipped to handle stress, inflammation, and external threats. By incorporating both probiotics and prebiotics, Essential Protein helps maintain a balanced gut microbiome — helping you feel stronger, more resilient, and balanced from the inside out.

At Solis, we don’t just focus on nutrition — we focus on foundational health. Because when your gut is strong, your immune system follows. It all starts here.
