What are probiotics?

 Probiotics are friendly bacteria that live in our gastrointestinal track. They are common part of gastrointestinal micro flora.

Probiotics are considered  as viable microorganisms that have a beneficial  effect in the prevention and treatment of specific pathologic conditions.

These  microorganisms colonizing the human gut help digest foods, create vitamins (such as B-12 and K), and inhibit the growth of  pathogenic bacteria.

Probiotics are used for ages. They can be found in many  eaten fermented food-yoghurt, sauerkraut, cheese .etc.

Many scientific researches have proven their key role in maintaining our body in good health.  Keeping  the intestinal  micro flora in balance and creating conditions for prevailing of friendly bacteria over pathologic micro flora  in the gastro-intestinal tract play key role in boosting our immune system.

The factors that could decrease the amount of these useful bacteria and might disrupt the normal flora in our intestines are:

• stress, 
• preservatives in the food, 
• chlorinated water 
• antibiotics. 

The disrupted flora provokes morbid  tendencies and conditions  not only in gastro intestinal tract but in other organs and systems of our body.

The result is:

•  inability to digest or absorb food, 
• constipation build-up of toxic sludge in the intestines, 
• deficiencies in essential vitamins, 
•  other problems that can lead to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, low energy, chronic fatigue, depression. 

The  goal of  probiotic therapy is the restoration of normal  micro flora balance. 

The most commonly used probiotics are strains of lactic acid bacteria (e.g., Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus). 

 According to researchers Bifidobacteria account for approximately 90% of the total colonic beneficial microflora.

Populations of Lactobacilli are several orders of magnitude smaller than Bifidobacteria.  Lactobacilli in humans inhabit the vagina and the gastrointestinal tract.

Lactobacilli create favourable condition for the growth of Bifidobacteria colony  in human body.

Probiotics can be got from foods and from supplement sources.

 Yogurt and milk to which probiotic bacteria have been added, such as acidophilus milk, and fermented milk products, such as kefirs are natural sources of probiotics.
