Why Good Probiotics Are The Foundation Of Good Health
Probiotics are the opposite of antibiotics. We all know what antibiotic are. They're pharmaceutical that literally mean against life. Anti means against, biotic means life. They target and kill specific pathogenic microbes. Things like viruses and bacteria. Of course, they also cause some "collateral damage."
Probiotics then are the opposite. Instead of trying to kill the bad in our bodies, theyre natural flora that promote the things that sustain life.
Did you know that there are over 500 types of life-forms (like bacteria and yeast) in your intestines that support your digestive and immune systems? Its true. In fact, without these bacteria and yeast and other types of flora, we wouldnt be able to survive.
Our natural immune system just isnt strong enough to fight off the constant attacks of bacteria and intruders on its own. Our bodies function in harmony with these flora and good bacteria to break down and defeat the bad bacteria.
It's an unending war.
When you take a good probiotic every day, you help to fortify your bodies immune system. Some studies suggest this dramatically aids your body in the fight against seasonal illness.
But thats not the only way that good probiotics may improve your health.
Studies also suggest that good probiotics can help remove toxins, support your metabolism, promote mineral absorption, produce lactic acid and even promote good oral health.
When choosing a good probiotic, you want to avoid one that cant survive much stress. For example, if the probiotic needs to be refrigerated, thats one indication that its a weak strain that wont do much for your immune system.
In my own experience, most probiotic supplements are killed by alcohol. Even if youre not a drinker, this is cause for concern about the strength of the supplement.
As a Certified clinical nutritionist, I always recommend a good probiotic (that isnt easily destroyed) as a foundational nutritional supplement. - 17274
