Did you know 70-80% of your immunity resides in your gut? The idea of ingesting living bacteria to keep you healthy might sound a little tough to swallow, but studies show probiotics can help resolve the uncomfortable effects of intestinal and bowel disorders and keep our gastrointestinal tract healthy. Our digestive tract contains millions of beneficial bacteria to assist in digestion and protect us from invaders. If the population of bacteria becomes depleted, there won’t be enough friendly bacteria at work to keep you healthy, leading to problems such as pain, cramping, and diarrhea.
About 100 trillion microorganisms comprised of over 500 species already live in a normal, healthy colon. There are “good” and “bad” bacteria, but in order for them to work together, they need to be balanced. Lifestyle choices can disturb the balance – a poor diet, stress, lack of sleep, overuse of antibiotics – all can tip the scales and let bad bacteria take over. The good bacteria patrol the gut (gastrointestinal tract) and keep harmful microorganisms in line by assisting in food digestion and nutrient absorption. They also play a role in maintaining a healthy immune system and synthesizing vitamins and minerals.
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria, or living microorganisms, that work by colonizing the small and large intestine and inhibiting the growth and activity of harmful organisms. They have been shown to stimulate the immune system and improve the absorption of certain nutrients. Research shows that certain strains can be helpful in restoring a healthy gut flora after antibiotic use and in cases of diarrhea.
