Why you need more Probiotics?


By Health News Magazine

WHY? Along with killing Pathogenic Bacteria, Antibiotics destroy the balance Intestinal Microflora by destroying the Good Bacteria in your digestive system. Ideally you should start repopulating your system with Good Bacteria after Antibiotics, by taking Probiotics.

What Is probiotics?

Food Medicine which beneficially improves and restore human intestinal microbial balance with the use of GOOD LIVE BACTERIA.

Why probiotics?

The Golden Age of anti-microbial therapy began with the production of penicillin in 1941. Patients now receive one or more forms of therapy with antibiotics with millions of potentially fatal infections been cured. At the same time, this pharmaceutical agent have also become the most misused of those available to the practicing physician. One result of the widespread use of antimicrobial agents has been the emergence of antibiotic resistant pathogen. Other untoward reactions produced by anti-infective agents include toxic effects and hypersensitivity reactions. Antibiotics also cause unique reactions that result from the ALTERATION in the microbial flora of the host. Individuals who receive therapeutic doses of this agent undergo alteration in the normal microbial population of the intestine. Some developed SUPER INFECTION as a result of such change.

Super Infection by this microorganism is due to the removal of the inhibitory influence of the microbial flora that normally inhabits the digestive system. This normal flora (GOOD BACTERIA) produce antibacterial substances like Baeteriocin and Lacidophilin. And the more broad the antibiotics are, the greater is the alteration in the normal flora.

In 1908, Elie Methnikoff, a nobel laureate working at the Pasteur Institute, observed that Bulgaria had an inordinate number of long lived people. He found that Bulgarian diet contained a large quantity of home grown vegetables and considerable amount of yogurt that contains "good live bacteria". Many dangerous disease causing organisms die due to the failure do develop in the food acted upon by Lactobacilli.

For the past 20 years, Dr. Iichiroh Ohhira, a renowed Japanese microbiologist has been conducting research on lactic acid bacteria on how to restore, maintain, and improve human health. This increases the number of good bacteria in our gastro intestinal tract and thus, suppress bad bacteria. He was awarded "Scientist of the year in 1991" after encapsulating 12 strains of good bacteria. Based on his research findings, he strongly believes that maintaining a good intestinal microbial balance is necessary for good health. According to his research, there are more than 100 trillion bacteria in our gastrointestinal as well as in our skin. The flora of these bacteria determines the health condition of our body. If the ratio of good bacteria to bad bacteria is 85%:15% then our body is healthy.

Beneficial effects

Probiotics helps in the digestion of food, manufacture vitamins; increases mineral assimilation; produces natural antibiotics lacidophilin and bacteriocin that control the growth of Bad Bacteria; and strengthens the immune system. More significantly, this helps restore, improve, and maintain intestinal microbial balance after antibiotics, chemotherapy and other factors alter the body's normal balance.

Ninety percent (90%) of all illnesses are caused by the infection of the gastrointestinal tract. The toxic-metabolic by products of bad bacteria can cause chronic illnesses and may even lead to Death.

Keep your bowel healthy by maintaining your intestinal microbial balance and take probiotics everyday.
