Probiotics
Probiotics are live microorganisms. These organisms are called lactic acid bacteria.
Most people are familiar with the "good bacteria" or found in yogurt and other fermented food products.or bacteria.
When taken regularly, and in large enough amounts, probiotics provide significant health benefits to the user.
Many people who live in modern industrialized societies suffer with various health problems. For the most part, these chronic
complaints and diseases are due to an imbalance of gut microflora, a condition referred to as dysbiosis. Most people in our society
would benefit from the balanced and preventative health effects that come from using probiotics on a regular basis.
Most gut flora imbalance or "dysbiosis" is caused by common factors in our modern lifestyles:
overuse of antibiotics, especially in our food sources
overuse of birth control pills
overuse of over-the-counter medications such as pain relievers, laxatives and antacids
this is aggravated by the high-carb, high-fat, and high-sugar diet that most North Americans follow
Some of the things you can do to improve your health are:
reduce your carbohydrate, sugar and alcohol intake
choose organic, hormone-free and antibiotic-free meats
take digestive enzyme supplements before each meal
choose prebiotic foods that contain soluble fiber and phenols
choose probiotic foods such as yogurt and unpasteurized vinegar, pickles and sauerkraut
reduce unnecessary medications (check with your physician before stopping any prescription drugs)
avoid antibiotics whenever possible
take probiotic supplements every day
