Be Proactive With Your Colon Health!
Maintaining a healthy colon is vitally important to your overall health and longevity. The current eating habits, overuse of sugar, wrong food combinations, and excessive use of antibiotics have caused many of the health problems so many people experience today. It is estimated that 50% of all antibiotics sold today are given to animals that are eventually butchered for human consumption. So, even if we try to avoid taking antibiotics, they still enter our body through the meat we eat. Once in the intestines, these antibiotics can destroy the beneficial bacteria and cause indigestion, bloating, gas, yeast overgrowth, etc.
Currently, many people think the only reason they would ever need to take a bacteria supplement would be if they had some obvious type of bowel problem. The friendly bacteria in the bowels have far-reaching benefits greater than most would imagine. These hard working organisms are, in fact, essential to good health.
Antibiotics, medications, excessive alcohol, fluoridated and chlorinated water, yeasts, chronic diarrhea, stress, infections, and poor diet can destroy these friendly bacteria. If the population of the probiotic bacteria is not replaced regularly with additional organisms, harmful bacteria can take over and cause serious health problems.
Fortunately, there's a simple way to lessen potential problems in the intestinal tract. Researchers now believe that there are steps one can take to maintain a healthy intestinal tract, such as: 1) include sufficient fiber in the diet, 2) exercise regularly, 3) drink plenty of pure water, and 4) keep the intestines populated with probiotic bacteria.
Colonies of "friendly or probiotic" bacteria must reside in the colon for it to function properly. These bacteria help maintain balance in the intestinal tract by preventing the unfriendly, disease-causing organisms, such as E. coli and salmonella, from gaining a foothold. The good bacteria eat up the toxic waste from food that was not completely digested and eliminated.
Health Benefits
A healthy intestine with the proper bacteria leads to good bowel movements, vitamin and hormone production, and a long list of other health benefits. A healthy intestinal tract has over 400 different species of micro-organisms living there. They make up about two pounds of body weight!
Lactobacillus Salivarius is a highly effective friendly bacteria that helps to maintain proper balance in your intestines by consuming unfriendly bacteria and viruses while promoting the growth of beneficial organisms. The regular consumption of this probiotic bacteria gives you an effective way to help promote healthy intestinal activity, good digestion, and colon regularity.
L. Salivarius, being active on proteins, is able to act on protein toxins while still in the intestinal tract. By removing this burden from the organs of elimination, it allows these organs to complete their functions with much greater efficiency. L. Salivarius also produces acid by fermentation, creating an environment less favorable to the organisms found in the rotting organic matter in the intestines.
L. Salivarius is also important for maintaining dental hygiene
As the main bacteria in our mouth, Lactobacillus Salivarius supports both tooth and gum health. L. Salivarius is found throughout the body, but it is particularly concentrated in the saliva, which makes it different from most probiotic strains. L. Salivarius promotes friendly bacterial populations in the mouth which enhances your body’s ability to maintain strong, healthy teeth and gums. It also supports your ability to deal with plaque and helps maintain a fresh breath.
L. Salivarius has the capacity to grow and spread very quickly. This helps it to crowd out harmful bacteria. Research shows it produces lactic acid and acetic acid which helps to keep ‘bad’ bacteria at bay while supporting the health of ‘good’ bacteria.
You can take the capsules on an empty stomach with water or if you want to specifically address dental health you can open up a capsule and hold the contents in your mouth. Move the powder around to cover your teeth as much as you can without dissolving it too much. Let it sit for as much time as you desire and swallow. Some people have also brushed their teeth with it or used it in a waterpik.
L. Salivarius
L. Salivarius is a highly effective probiotic bacteria, which plays an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system and dental health. It helps to maintain proper balance of bacteria, by promoting the growth of beneficial organisms.
L. Salivarius can facilitate better digestion and utilization of the food we eat. If you currently are not taking a probiotic supplement on a regular basis, we strongly suggest you reconsider.
