Post COVID, people have become conscious of their health & are looking for solutions that can help them regulate their biology. However, this has been considered as an opportunity with a number of supplements & nutraceutical companies who have been offering standard OTC supplements- vitamin, mineral, prebiotics, probiotics, synbiotics & more for worse.
