A few reasons to take probiotics

No Comments
10 years ago

Some may have heard about probiotics through various commercials on television, but many don't have an understanding of exactly what they are and how they help our bodies. Sure, they're good for us, but what role do they play?

What are probiotics?
Probiotics are microscopic organisms naturally found in the gut that help the body build long-lasting immunity to a host of illnesses. Taking the form of bacteria or yeast, probiotics are believed to improve health by keeping the intestines healthy, assisting in digestion and even helping to promote a healthy immune system. One of the most common types of probiotics is lactobacillus bulgaricus, found in many yogurts and soft cheeses.

How do they work?
Digestive issues may occur when the balance of good bacteria is thrown off. Probiotics may help by improving intestinal function and maintaining the integrity of the lining of the intestines. They promote the production of antibodies, which can protect bodies from infection and help to build up a natural defense. Think of probiotics as superheroes in the body that defend against invading organisms.

What are the benefits?

A healthy immune system
Consuming probiotics in your diet may help you maintain a healthy immune system. With more probiotics in your system, it's harder for bacteria that cause illness to invade your body. Probiotics help to suppress the growth of that harmful bacteria, keeping you healthy.

Promote healthy digestion
Probiotics play a key role in promoting proper digestion and metabolism. They aid in the breakdown and absorption of food and fight off bad bacteria. Probiotics also promote regularity and help to keep an overall healthy digestive system.

How do I get them in my diet?
One of the simplest ways to up your intake of probiotics is through a supplement. Naturade Probiotics 30 B CFU contain 30 billion colony-forming units, otherwise known as good bacteria. It may help to maintain a healthy digestive system, support your immune defenses and help to maintain a proper balance of bacteria. Studies have shown that bifidobacterium and lactobacillus, both found in this supplement, may support natural immune health.

Yogurt is also a great source of probiotics and is easy to incorporate into your daily diet. Pair your morning meal with some yogurt topped with fruit or have it as a snack in between meals and top it with some protein-packed granola. You can even use unsweetened Greek yogurt in place of sour cream in recipes and meals.

Cheeses like gouda are another great source of probiotics and can easily be incorporated into your diet. Try topping your salad or soup with a bit of cheese for a boost of probiotics.
