Total Probiotics

                                                                 

The reality is that our Standard American Diet (SAD) is full of processed, pasteurized, and overall unhealthy food. Even when people think that they are eating healthy, the truth is that are not. That is why many health physicians call the food we eat SAD.

For that reason alone it is my strong recommendation that every person take a probiotic supplement.

Probiotics are naturally occurring bacteria in our gut and play a primary role in our immune system status. It used to be years ago that we obtained these great little bacteria through our normal every day diet. Now, times have changed. Due to pasteurization, processing, and a host of other destructive processes the beneficial bacteria that used to be found in milk, meat, yogurt, etc... is now non-existent in those foods.

What is now happening is that the "bad bacteria" (the type that makes us sick) is now outnumbering the good bacteria in our system and our immune system is struggling. We not only get outnumbered bacteria in our gut from the stuff mentioned above but we also reduce our good bacteria when we take antibiotics. Antibiotics are not specific and their job is to kill everything good and bad.

 

By the way, don't think that you are only getting antibiotics when you are prescribed them. The #1 buyers of antibiotics are cattle farmers. They feed the cows antibiotics to fatten them up and help them produce more milk so unless you are consuming raw, unpasteurized milk and meat you are still getting antibiotics.

 
 

Since these "good/friendly bacteria" are destroyed through our SAD diet we need to replenish these through supplementation. Many people in our office have experianced the benefit of probiotics for:

• Chronic Ear Infections in Children
• Irritable Bowl Syndrome, Chron's Disease, etc...
• Bloating, Gas, Etc...
  

 

All of these are reasons why every morning my family and I take one Total Probiotic. It has L. Acidophilus, Bifidus, Bifobacterium and a few more beneficial bacteria. It also contains Jerusalem Artichoke which attract the bacteria to the gut.
