Probiotics and Beneficial Bacteria
Researchers estimate that more than 400 species of bacteria
inhabit the digestive tract. Some of these are the pathogenic, or
disease-producing, bacteria. But other species are considered
“friendly” bacteria. To an extent, digestive tract health depends
on the condition of the friendly bacteria and the control they
exert over the less friendly, pathogenic variety.
Friendly bacteria are often referred to as probiotics for their
multiple, interacting benefits. Some friendly bacteria, such as
bifidobacteria can thrive only in oxygen-free environments.
Others, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, require small amounts
of oxygen and are known as microaerophilic organisms. As a result,
friendly bacteria have the potential to play several roles.
Friendly bacteria produce acetic, lactic and formic acids which
lower the pH in the intestine, thereby inhibiting growth of
undesirable bacteria and enhancing the nutritional status by
helping to digest food and manufacture essential vitamins.
Probiotics help us to:
-
Strengthen the
immune system
-
Guard against
cancer
-
Combat yeast
overgrowth and fungal infections such as Candida Albicans
-
Prevent
constipation, diarrhoea, flatulence and bloating
-
Protect against
osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis
-
Overcome skin
problems
