WE RECOMMEND Bifidophilus OR L. Reuteri

Choosing a Probiotic Supplement

Our small intestines provide a perfect environment for the population of billions of beneficial bacteria known collectively as friendly flora. The intestinal flora perform many beneficial tasks for us. They help break down the food we ingest and manufacture specific nutrients. They are also part of our immune system, protecting us against unwanted and infectious bacteria, yeast and other microorganisms from multiplying in the gut. They also play a role in reducing allergies.

Antibiotics, chlorinated water and certain drugs (like corticosteroids) destroy these friendly bacteria making people prone to bowel disease, yeast infections and compromised immune function. Anyone who has taken multiple rounds of antibiotics has probably killed off a lot of their friendly flora and has an overgrowth of yeast and other unhealthy microbes in their intestines.

Probiotic supplements replace these friendly microbes. Probiotic supplements should be taken after completing any round of antibiotics. They should also be taken when traveling as they help protect the body against infections from drinking water and food. Probiotic supplements are helpful for anyone suffering from any kind of yeast or fungal infection, or for people with chronic sinus problems, weak immunity or other chronic infections.

Bifidophilus Flora Force is a good supplement to help replace these friendly microbes. Yogurt that contains live lactobacillus; and other beneficial bacteria is also helpful -frozen yogurt is not. Probiotics can also be found in kefir, cottage cheese, raw pickles and sauerkraut.

L Reuteri is another probiotic to consider. It is very helpful for aggressively knocking down yeast after taking antibiotics or when suffering from yeast infections. It should be followed by taking Bifidophilus Flora Force.
