Probiotics
are defined as a microbial (“good bacteria”) food
supplement that beneficially affects the host by improving intestinal
microbial balance. The term "friendly” or “good”
bacteria are often used as an alternative to "probiotics."
Probiotics are beneficial to the host in the following ways:
They ferment fibers to produce short chain fatty acids, which
are used by intestines to repair and grow themselves; They secrete
natural antibiotics; They produce enzymes, such as Lactulose,
which breaks down milk sugars and other foods; They modulate
local and systemic immune response; they antagonize “bad”
bacteria, yeast and infection; they protect against cancer,
especially colon cancer; they secrete nutrients; they help to
digest and metabolize food; they protect against infectious
and antibiotic induced diarrhea.
Probiotics
support the immune system and help provide protection from pathogens.
To enhance the functionality of probiotics, which support the
immune system and provide protection from pathogens, our health
professionals utilized a proprietary high-tech strain that is
activated by water. Upon arriving in the proper destination
of the body, the population doubles every twenty minutes to
assist in attacking unwanted bacteria.
L.
Salivarius - One
unique benefit of L. salivarius is its ability to help break
down undigested protein and disengage the toxins produced by
protein putrefactions. L. salivarius may be useful to help prevent
and fight Helicobacter pylori, which is now acknowledged to
be a leading cause of ulcers. L. salivaius is classified as
a facultative bacterium, which means that it can survive and
grow in both anaerobic (without oxygen) and aerobic (with oxygen)
environments, although its main effects take place in anaerobic
conditions. This is a decided advantage over the well-known
Lactobacillus acidophilus, which has little or no growth in
an aerobic environment.
