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
-
Lower cholesterol levels
-
Enhance nutritional status
