Probiotics are dietary supplements containing beneficial bacteria or yeast that when added to the diet have shown a range of potentially beneficial health benefits. Our Probiotics Capusles contain a blend of 12 strains of friendly probiotic lactic acid bacteria, as well as vitamins, minerals, amino acids and organic acids.
How Probitics Work
Probiotic bacterial cultures work by helping the body's naturally occurring bacteria replinish themselves. These natural bacteria are known as "gut flora" and are microbes which are actually benefitial to human well being.
The natural occurance of probiotics or gut flora may be thrown out of balance by the use of antibotics, alcohol, drugs or factors such as stress, poor diet, illness, disease or exposure to toxic substances or even antibacterial home cleaning products. This can decrease the number of useful bacteria that help our body and allow harmful bacteria to thrive in their place, to the detriment of one's health.
Probiotics are sometimes recommended by doctors and nutritionists after a course of antibiotics or as part of a program to help strenthen the immune system.
