THE "FRIENDLY" BACTERIA Necessary To Health! by Lena Sanchez

According to the Colon Health Handbook, a healthy colon

should contain at least 85 percent lactobacillus and 15

percent coliform bacteria. However these days, the typical

colon bacteria count is the reverse, resulting in excessive gas,

bloating, intestinal and systemic toxicity, constipation, and

malabsorption of nutrients. Acidophilus can help to detoxify

harmful substances.

Unfortunately, these bacteria can be killed off by age, oral

contraceptives, aspirin, corticosteroids, poor diet, sugar,

stress and taking antibiotics, causing an imbalance of the

"friendly" bacteria. Supplementing with acidophilus can

result in reversing that condition and maintain a healthy

intestinal flora.

These friendly bacteria help digest food, produce

essential vitamins and help keep bowel function normal.

Acidophilus supports and maintains the growth of the

Lactobacillus bifidus in the intestinal tract. Studies at the

University of Nebraska Medical Center have shown that

Lactobacillus G.G. can enhance immunity, and hints that

other strains of probiotics may deter arthritis, delay colon

cancer and lower bad cholesterol.

Due to our fatty fast food diets, now so prevalent, along

with the OTC (over-the-counter) drugs and prescriptions

given freely, the intestinal tract in the majority of Americans

are lacking in proper friendly bacteria to promote a

healthy intestinal tract. Therefore we have a huge number

of polyps, colon cancer and Irritable Bowel Syndrome's

running around and the majority can be prevented with

practicing colon health by making sure your intestinal

tract has a balanced friendly bacteria.

Balance by taking a complete ProBiotic supplement at least two

or three days a week if not having any health problem. But if a

health problem exists take daily until you return to normal

eating habits and/or are off medications…

People with a sweet tooth or meat and potatoes only people

need ProBiotic's daily!

If you are taking an antibiotic take a ProBiotic twice a day

while taking the antibiotic and then for a full week after.

My choice is a tasty chewable that works great for my family

and friends if you want to know what it is
