Primal Defense is the only probiotic formula
that contains a unique whole food blend with Homeostatic Soil Organisms
(HSOs). The HSOs in Primal Defense are important probiotics you would
get in abundance if your food came from soil untouched by pesticides,
herbicides and other widely used chemicals. To replenish the valuable
probiotics our pasteurised, irradiated and disinfected food no longer
provides, Primal Defense includes 12 species of hardy beneficial microorganisms
in the form of the HSO Probiotic Blend. Let the unique HSOs in Primal
Defense take you to a new level of total health.
What are probiotics and why do I need
them?
Probiotics are beneficial microflora that
play a critical role in maintaining good health. Healthy human intestines
contain billions of both good and potentially harmful microorganisms.
The good bacteria in the intestines are considered to be an integral
part of normal immune system support.
Probiotics are important because they
can synthesise certain vitamins and short-chain fatty acids to support
a healthy intestinal lining and bolster immunity. When your intestinal
lining is occupied by healthy beneficial flora, it deprives unwelcome
microorganisms of both space and nutrients.
Healthy people usually have a ratio of
approximately 85% good to 15% potentially harmful organisms in the intestinal
tract. In some cases, even those who appear to be well might have an
unfavourable ratio as a result of daily exposure to environmental toxins
and a modern lifestyle. For example, taking antibiotics or drinking
chlorinated water may change the optimal microbial balance essential
for good health.
Garden of Life believes that probiotics
are most beneficial when they are not separated from their food source.
Primal Defense, unlike isolated probiotic products, contains fermented
whole foods and multiple strains of beneficial probiotics in the form
of the Homeostatic Soil Organism Probiotic Blend.
What are HSOs an where do they come from?
Large scale use of pesticides, herbicides
and other chemicals has changed the bacterial balance of the soil. In
order to obtain the benefits we historically acquired from consuming
foods cultivated in healthy soil, Garden of Life developed a Homeostatic
Soil Organism Probiotic Blend utilising 12 species of beneficial organisms.
What can occur if I don't have enough
beneficial bacteria?
A lack of beneficial bacteria in your
diet can result in an unbalanced internal environment and a lack of
support for your normal immune system function.
What is the difference between Primal
Defense and other Probiotics?
Primal Defense is the only probiotic containing
12 species of hardy beneficial microorganisms in the form of the HSO
Probiotic Blend. The ability of the probiotics in Primal Defense to
support the normal healthy flora balance in the gut is not based solely
on CFU count, but also on their ability to withstand harsh conditions
in the digestive tract such as stomach acid and bile. Primal Defense
also contains naturally occurring substances that function as prebiotics.
If I'm healthy, how can I benefit from
taking Primal Defense?
Total health begins in the gut, so an
optimised digestive tract has a plethora of health benefits. Primal
Defense contains probiotics that support healthy gut flora balance,
promote regular bowel function, and maintain a normal immune system
- all of which are necessary to support overall health.
The probiotics in Primal Defense maximise
the benefits of a healthy diet by supporting normal absorption and assimilation
of nutrients in the gut.
