IgG Supplements

While traditional methods like a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle remain fundamental in supporting health and overall wellbeing, there's growing interest in the potential benefits of using IgG to supplement your wellness plan. 

In this article, we'll explore what IgG is, its role in the immune system, and the various advantages IgG supplements may offer.

Immunoglobulin G, commonly referred to as IgG, is a type of antibody present in our blood. Its primary function is to identify and neutralize harmful substances like bacteria, viruses, and toxins. Essentially, IgG acts as a critical component of our immune system, helping us fend off illnesses and infections. IgG is the most abundant antibody in our bloodstream, making up around 80 percent of all antibodies.

Bloating may be a sign of dysbiosis–an imbalance of gut bacteria. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a form of dysbiosis in which too many bacteria inhabit the small intestine. This can cause many symptoms like bloating, constipation/diarrhea, abdominal pain, and more. IgG supplements have shown promise in treating symptoms of SIBO, like bloating (4). Our SIBO probiotic is extremely effective in relieving symptoms of SIBO and supporting optimal digestion by offering a combination of IgG and research-backed probiotic strains.

IgG supplements have shown great promise in supporting the immune system and optimizing digestion, especially in individuals with IBS, diarrhea, and/or bloating concerns. We often suggest IgG in combination with a personalized functional medicine wellness plan for our members. However, we also highly recommend building a strong foundation for immune and gut health by following an anti-inflammatory diet, managing stress levels, and optimizing sleep hygiene.
