Specific types of live bacteria - called probiotics - live in the human gut. If you take them in the proper amount, they can help fight disease. Probiotics can relieve lactose intolerance, bladder and vaginal infections and prevent allergies among other things.
Probiotics are bacterial cultures that support a good and healthy intestinal bacterial flora. They will give you the means to maintain a balanced bacterial flora in the intestines. Probiotic bacteria thrive on complex carbohydrates, low sugar, low-fat diet, a diet high in meat, sugar and fat. They predispose the growth of harmful bacteria and yeasts. Probiotic bacteria prefer an acidic pH and can live in the presence or absence of oxygen.
These friendly bacteria have a highly significant role to play, which is becoming more widely recognized among health professionals in influencing our health within the complex metabolic, biochemical and nutritional cycles of the human body. Research has documented considerable evidence for the wide-ranging therapeutic properties of probiotic organisms and has established their role in maintaining optimal health.
The major areas of Probiotics therapeutic clinical action includes:
• Competition against harmful micro-organisms including Candida, preventing colonization of pathogens through the production of inhibitory substances including acids, hydrogen peroxide and natural antibiotics • Enhancement of digestion of lactose (milk sugar) • Reduction in blood cholesterol levels • Immune enhancement, including enhanced macrophage activity • Reduction in the levels of and deactivation of potential cancer causing chemicals, particularly in the colon and direct anti-tumor activity of certain strains • Reduction in liver toxicity • Enhancement of peristalsis, digestion, regularity and re-absorption of nutrients. In infants, promotion of healthy digestive tract colonization• Enhancement and balance of estrogen levels, prevention of osteoporosis through increased calcium uptake • Protection against food poisoning, travelers' diarrhea, allergies, skin problems • Enhancement of vitamin (B, K), digestion of proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
