Napakalaking tulong sa atin ng Probiotics (good bacteria) sa ating katawan...
Alam nyo ba na ang tiyan natin ay second brain natin.... dahil pag gutom tayo, di tayo maka isip ng mga bagay na gusto natin.. oh hindi tayu maka focus sa isang bagay na ginagawa natin.. dahil sa gutom tayu...
At alam nyo ba na na halos 85% (diseases) na sakit sa mundo ay nakukuha natin sa mga kinakain natin. dahil ang mga pag kain ngayun sa henerasyon natin ay mga cancerous na....
Halimbawa ng mga pagkaing nakakasama sa ating kalusugan...
1.HOTDOGs..
Alam naman natin na paborito ito ng mga kabataan at kahit may edad na ay paborito din ito,.. madalas itong niluluto sa umaga dahil paborito ito ng mga bata sa almusal...
bakit ito canserous? dahil ang hot dogs ay mataas sa ( Sodium nitrates).. ang grupong Cancer Prevention Coalition, ay nag papayo na hanggang 12 hotdogs lamang ang kainin sa loob ng isang buwan,, kung hindi maiwasan ang pag kain ng hotdogs mas piliin ang maputlang hotdogs oh yung kulay brown....
2.Longganisa,Ham,Tocino,Bacon(processed meats)
Ganun din, mataas din ito sa Sodium Nitrates, tulad ng makikita sa hotdogs, tocino,ham,longganisa, Habang patuloy tayong kumakain ng mga processed meats,, mataas ang chance na Marami nang Sodium Nitrates sa katawan natin at itoy nakakasama sa ating puso,, itoy nag dudulot ng mga sakit.,, ang mga taba-taba na galing sa processed meats, ay pwede ding mag sanhi ng Cancer...
3.Doughnuts.
Alam naman natin na paborito ito ng mga kabataan at kahit may edad na ay paborito din ito,.. madalas itong niluluto sa umaga dahil paborito ito ng mga bata sa almusal...
bakit ito canserous? dahil ang hot dogs ay mataas sa ( Sodium nitrates).. ang grupong Cancer Prevention Coalition, ay nag papayo na hanggang 12 hotdogs lamang ang kainin sa loob ng isang buwan,, kung hindi maiwasan ang pag kain ng hotdogs mas piliin ang maputlang hotdogs oh yung kulay brown....
2.Longganisa,Ham,Tocino,Bacon(processed meats)
Ganun din, mataas din ito sa Sodium Nitrates, tulad ng makikita sa hotdogs, tocino,ham,longganisa, Habang patuloy tayong kumakain ng mga processed meats,, mataas ang chance na Marami nang Sodium Nitrates sa katawan natin at itoy nakakasama sa ating puso,, itoy nag dudulot ng mga sakit.,, ang mga taba-taba na galing sa processed meats, ay pwede ding mag sanhi ng Cancer...
3.Doughnuts.
Ang Doughnuts ay Nagiging Sanhi din ng Cancer... dahil sa dalawang masamang proseso nito,,, Una ay gawa sya sa puting harina, asukal at (Hydrogenated Oil) ano ba ang Hydrogenated Oil?
( fat molecules have trans fats, and they may be the worst type of fat you can consume.)
Pangalawa... ang donuts ay niluluto sa mataas na temperatura sa mantika.. ito ay masama sa ating katawan...
Sabi nga ni Mike Adams, May be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer)
4. French fries ..
katulad ng donuts, ang french fries ay ginagamitan din ng hydrogenated oils, at piniprito o nilulubog sa mataas na temperatura sa mantika, ang french fries ay parang sponge na kung saan siyang sumisipsip sa mantika,at naiipon sa loob ng french fries, at saka na man natin nakakain ang mantika,, at kung paulit ulit pang ginagamit ang mantika, sa pag luluto ng french fries, dito na pumapasok ang sakit na cancer,. dahil nag lalaman ang mantika ng acrylamides dahil sa paulit ulit na pag gamit sa mantika at sa mataas na temperatura..
5. Chips, crackers, and cookies
Tinatawag Din itong Junk Food... Pag sinabing junk food.. ito ung mga pag kaing mabebetsin,.. mataas sa transfat,.. may mga preservatives,.. kaya tinawag na junk? kapag sinabing junk food.. Basurang pag kain... itoy kadalasang kinakain ng mga kabataan ngayun....
6.SoftDrinks...
ANG madalas na pag-inom ng softdrinks ay napakasarap pagkamalamig lalu na sa panahon ng tag-init
Kaya lang ayon sa pag-aaral ng mga eksperto, hindi mabuti sa katawan ang madalas na pag-inom nito.
Ang soda ay may taglay na phosphoric acid na pumapatay sa calcium at magnesium, mga nutrients na mabuti sana para sa operasyon ng ating immunity.
Bukod dito, mataas din sa fructose corn syrup ang ilang soft drinks na nagco-contain din ng mataas na lebel ng free radicals na nakasisira ng tissues ng ating katawan, nakaka-cause at nakalalala rin ng sakit na diabetes.
Ayon pa sa public health experts, ang mga pinaglalagyang plastic bottles ng soft drinks, maging ng mineral water ay nagtataglay ng toxic chemical na tinatawag na BPA o bisphenol A, na humahalo sa inumin at nakasasama sa katawan ng isang tao.
Anim lang po siyang halimbawa ng mga pag kain natin ngayon na madalas nating kainin sa araw araw,... pero marami pa pong pag kain ang akala nating pag kain pero nakakasama na pala sa ating tiyan.....
ang tanong kung kaya ba natin iwasan ang mga pag kain ito?... Di ba hindi.. lalo sa panahon natin ngayun.. puro processed meat and foods na .. at puro instant foods,, Lalo ngayun na nag kalat ang mga Street Foods dito sa pilipinas... at tayong mga pilipino nasanay tayo sa mga pag kaing ito.. at ang iba ay kulturang pag kain na sa pilipino ito...
Pansinin nyo ngayon sa panahon natin.. paikli na ng paikli ang buhay natin... sabi sa pag aaral.... ang buhay daw ngayun kung isa kang lalaki,, ma swerte kanang umabot sa 55 years Old.. at sa babae namn ay 60 years Old....
Hindi katulad Dati.. sa panahon ng lolo`t lola natin.. mahaba ang buhay nila.. umaabot pa nga ng 100 years.. 90 at 80.. dahil ang kinakain lang nila noon ay mga organic na pag kain.. tulad ng kamote,, saging....
hindi katulad sa panahon natin ngayun iba na.. Junk food na ang miryenda.. mabebetsin.. Instant Coffee,Instant Noodles.. Hotdogs.. Donuts.Pizza.. at sa mga fastfoods na ang takbuhan ng iba..
kaya wag kang mag taka kung ang buhay mo ay Instant nadin.. Na dahil sa kinakain natin kaya umiikli ang buhay natin... Ung sakit na UTI (Urinary Tract Infections).. Noon sakit lang yan ng matatanda.... Eh ngayun pansinin mo.. kahit bata pa.. kahit 5 years Old may UTI na.. Dahil ang pinapainum pla ng magulang ay softdrinks.. ang softdrinks ginagawa nilang tubig....
Kaya Wag na kayo mag taka na ang mga sakit na dumadapo sa atin ay Nang gagaling sa mga kinakain natin.....Halos 85% na sakit sa mundo nakukuha natin sa pag kain..
ang malaking tanong.... Hindi natin kayang iwasan ang mga pag kaing processed foods and Instant Foods...ano ang dapat nating gawin?...
Una kailangan maging aware tayu sa mga kinakain natin.. at Dapat sapat lamang at hindi sobra sobra ang pag kain natin sa mga ito....
Pangalawa...Dito na papasok ang tinawag na Probiotics(Good Bacteria)....
KAHALAGAHAN NG MGA GOOD BACTERIA SA TIYAN
Ang daluyan ng pagkain partikular ang tiyan at mga bituka ay esensyal proseso ng pagtunaw ng mga pagkain at pagsipsip sa mga mahahalagang sustansya na kailangan ng katawan. Kaya naman mahalaga na mapangalagaan ang mga bahaging ito. At isa sa mga epektibong paraan ng pangangalaga sa kalusugan ng tiyan at bituka ay ang pagmementena sa tamang balanse ng mga good bacteria sa loob nito.
ANO ANG MGA GOOD BACTERIA SA TIYAN?
Ang tiyan ng bawat tao ay pinamumugaran ng iba’t ibang uri ng mga maliliit na bacteria. Ang iba dito’y nakakasama at maaaring magdulot ng karamdaman kung mapapabayaan, habang ang iba naman ay nakatutulong mismo sa tiyan. Ang mga bacteria na nakakatulong sa tiyan ang siyang tintukoy na mga good bacteria.
ANO ANG BENEPISYO NG GOOD BACTERIA SA TIYAN?
Ang mga good bacteria sa tiyan ay nakatutulong sa ilang mga paraan. Isa na ang tulong nito sa metabolismo ng ilang mga sustansya na nakuha mula sa mga pagkaing dumadaan sa daluyan. Isa pang naitutulong ng good bacteria sa kalusugan ay ang pakikipaglaban nito sa mga bad bacteria. Mas madali ring natutunaw ang mga pagkain sa tulong ng mga bacteria na ito.
PAANO MAPAPANATILI ANG GOOD BACTERIA SA TIYAN?
Sa kasamaang palad, ang mga good bacteria sa tiyan ay kasama ring napupuksa kapag umiinom ng gamot na antibiotic. Nababawasan din ang bilang ng mga good bacteria kapag kumakain ng mga pagkaing naproseso o na-refine, o kaya mga pagkaing sobrang matamis o mataas ang starch. Buti na lamang, may ilang mga paraan para mapanatili ang balanse ng good bacteria sa tiyan.
1. Bawasan ang pagkain ng mga matatamis at may starch. Nawawala ang balanse ng mga bacteria sa tiyan kung kung sobra ang asukal sa mga kinakain. Ang asukal mula sa mga matatamis na pagkain ang nakakapagparami sa bilang ng mga bad bacteria
2. Panatilihing balanse ang kinakain. Kumain ng karne, isda, at mga gulay sapagkat ito naman ang kinakain ng mga good bacteria.
3. Kumain ng mga fermented food. Ang mga fermented food gaya ng kimchi, yogurt, cheese, at iba pa ay nakapagpapalakas at nakakapagparami sa bilang ng mga good bacteria sa tiyan.
4. Limitahan ang pag-inom ng mga gamot na antibiotic. Tulad nga ng naunang nabanggit, kasamang napupuksa ang mga good bacteria sa pag-inom ng mga gamot na antibiotic. Hanggat maaari, iwasang gumamit ng matatapang na gamot laban sa impeksyon. Bigyang pansin ang mga alternatibo at natural na paraan ng paggagamot kung mayroon.
5. Uminom ng mga sabaw o pinaglagaan. Ang sabaw mula sa pinaglagaan ng mga buto at laman ay nakatutulong sa paghilom ng mga lining ng sikmura at pagpapalakas sa mga good bacteria.
6. Uminom ng mga Probiotic Supplement. Ikonsidera ang pag-inom sa mga inumin na may probiotics (Yakult, Yoghurt) lalo na kung kakagaling pa lang sa matinding gamutan. Taglay ng mga supplement na ito ang buhay na good bacteria na kailangan ng tiyan.

By Dr. Mercola
If you’re among the one in three American adults who have hypertension (high blood pressure), one of the first pieces of advice your physician likely gave you was to reduce the amount of sodium in your diet.While it's certainly beneficial to cut out processed salt —the type found in processed foods and regular table salt—limiting sodium is not the hypertension cure that many think it is.There are actually many other strategies that are equally, and oftentimes more, important for maintaining healthy blood pressure levels, and a new study highlighted one of them: balancing your gut flora.If your gut flora is unhealthy, your risk is much greater for heart disease, as well as many other chronic health problems, so it makes sense that the new research found probiotics, also known as beneficial bacteria, may improve blood pressure control.
2.Prevent UTI (Urinary Tract Infections)-
Probiotics make a nice compliment to antibiotic among people who suffer from urinary tract infections, according to the research.
What`s more, there`s emerging evidence that regular probiotics can help prevent bad bacteria from invading tract by maintaining a population of health bacteria on the tract`s adherence sites. Infections of the urinary tract are extremely common, especially in women. most infections disappear with antibiotics, but about 30-40 percent might returns according to literature from the the University of Marvland Medical Center..
3.Prevent Diabetes
It's common for many, especially members of the mainstream medical profession, to be ignorant of the importance of probiotics. While antibiotics that turn gastrointestinal tracts into killing fields are routinely prescribed, probiotics to replace lost beneficial bacteria are rarely even suggested.
Even when a doctor does give that advice, it's from the mindset that probiotics are merely important for good digestion. True enough, but probiotics, or good gut bacteria, need to comprise at least 80% of total gut bacteria for several other reasons.
Several tests and clinical studies have confirmed a strong probiotic presence with an 80/20 or 85/15 intestinal flora balance is necessary for several reasons.
For example, it's been determined that probiotic bacteria communicate with and trigger immune responses throughout the bodyTesting has confirmed discoveries of the gut as a "second brain". The stronger and more balanced GI tract bacteria are, the less emotionally and mentally impaired their human hosts are
Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride has clinically demonstrated healing all types of mental disorders and chronic allergies by applying her GAPS (Gut and Psychology Syndrome) diet to restore proper intestinal flora balance.

4.Prevent food allergies-
Abstract
Purpose of review To describe the current literature on clinical trials of probiotics for eczema and food allergy prevention in view of recent new approaches and long-term follow-ups.
Recent findings: Attempting allergy prevention by probiotic administration has been most successful when assessing atopic eczema, the most prevalent allergic disease at an early age. More than half of the published studies demonstrate a decrease in eczema prevalence until 2 years, whereas the remaining studies fail to show an effect. Effects have been most consistent with combined prenatal and direct postnatal supplementation of the infant and appear strain-specific, with Lactobacillus rhamnosus most often showing an effect. Prenatal-only and postnatal-only studies often fail to show effects. Recent long-time follow-ups have shown promising but not consistent results. A very recent follow-up of a large well conducted cohort shows that long-term effects of eczema prevention persists until age 4 and prevention of respiratory allergies might also be possible.
Summary: Prevention of eczema with probiotics seem to work until age 2 years and extended effects until 4 years have been shown in high-risk for allergy cohorts. Effects are strain-specific, with L. rhamnosus showing the most consistent effects especially when combining pre and postnatal administration.
By: Mikael Kuitunen5.Barrier against food poisoning-
There have been a few medical studies that have shown that probiotics can help reduce the incidence of food poisoning as well as reducing the duration of the illness and the severity of the symptoms.
Salmonella enterica, a pathogenic bacteria, is a very common cause of food poisoning. Animal studies have shown that administering probiotics has great potential to both reduce risk of Salmonella infection and its severity. In 2007, researchers reported on a study they undertook whereby they gave healthy pigs a mix of five common probiotic bacteria (two strains of Lactobacillus murinus and one strain each of Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salivarius,Lactobacillus pentosus, and Pediococcus pentosaceous) for six days. They then infected the pigs with Salmonella enterica and monitored the exposed animals for the next 23 days. Those pigs that treated with the probiotic cocktail showed reduced incidence, severity, and duration of diarrhea as well as a reduced number of Salmonella cells in their feces, as compared to the control group that were not given probiotics. The study appears to show that giving probiotics prophylactically (to pigs at least) seems to reduce the risk of getting Salmonella, a potentially food-borne disease, as well as reducing the severity of the disease for those that did get it. We look forward to human studies looking at this issue.
Note: When to Seek Immediate Medical Treatment
If you think your sickness has been caused by either eating a mushroom or some bad shellfish, seek medical assistance promptly and do no attempt to treat it on your own. The toxins that may be associated with either of these foods can be dangerous and require a doctor’s evaluation and treatment. Additionally, if you feel dangerously ill, develop a high fever, or feel extremely dehydrated or depleted, seek a doctor’s attention right away as this can be an indication of serious sickness requiring medical intervention and a strong antibiotic.
Research on Probiotics to Treat or Prevent Food Poisoning
There have been a few medical studies that have shown that probiotics can help reduce the incidence of food poisoning as well as reducing the duration of the illness and the severity of the sympto
A significant percentage of people who travel internationally get persistent diarrhea, which is caused by contaminated food or water and is commonly referred to as Traveler’s Diarrhea. From 5 to 50% of overseas travelers will develop this food poisoning, depending on the destination of their trip.
A 2007 meta-review of research that had been done on this burdensome condition and that can really ruin a nice vacation, concluded that taking probiotics prophylactically appeared to be effective at reducing the likelihood of travelers developing diarrhea in the first place. The authors noted that no adverse effects from taking the probiotics was observed in any of the studies they reviewed. In particular, the probiotics Saccharomyces boulardii and a mixture of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum have been shown to be very effective.
With relatively little downside (other than cost) and the potential to increase the enjoyment from a journey, it seems worthwhile to give strong consideration to taking probiotics before and during travel, particularly if the itinerary includes destinations such as India or Mexico, which are known hot-beds of Traveler’s Diarrhea!

Self-care: Probiotics for Food Poisoning
Probiotics have been shown to be useful in preventing and improving cases of food poisoning and they are typically quite safe, except for people with compromised immune systems, who should avoid them.
Friendly microbes will assist your immune system to fight off the illness. Additionally, the beneficial bacteria and yeasts in the probiotics will help your digestive tract return to normal faster after a bout of food poisoning. In some cases, an unexpected side effect of food poisoning is that the sufferer develops lactose intolerance ( a problem digesting milk and foods made with milk). Probiotic Lactobacillus bacteria can help the body to digest milk and milk products while the digestive tract recovers.
If you have taken antibiotics for a bout of food poisoning, taking a probiotic supplement along with, or even after, the prescription medication can help return the healthy microbes to your digestive tract that may have been inadvertently harmed by the antibiotics. One downside of antibiotics is that they kill beneficial as well as harmful microbes. Probiotics can help with antibiotic-induced diarrhea and improve digestion.
Although it may be difficult to consume food or liquids when suffering from food poisoning, eating Probiotic rich foods, such a live-culture yoghurt,kefiror preservative-free fermented foods like miso and sauerkraut is one of the most effective ways to get a high dose of good quality probiotics. Be sure to eat and drink lots of these prior to travel to destinations known for a high incidences of food poisoning.
Anecdotally, we have heard people having very quick improvement from food poisoning symptoms after drinking kefir.
If you prefer to take probiotics for preventing or treating food poisoning in pill form
Don’t forget to seek medical treatment if your bout lasts longer than a few days, you develop a high fever or you notice blood in your stool.
Please let us know in the comments below if you have had any experience with food poisoning or traveler’s diarrhea and probiotics.

6.Help shorten Colds and flu-
4 Ways Probiotics Can Reduce Infections, Flus and
Colds
Probiotics are bacteria or yeast introduced to the body to aid in total body health.
It may seem counterproductive to purposely consume microorganisms but our body naturally contains many beneficial bacteria – the digestive system alone contains more than 500 such organisms – that help to keep our complex processes running smoothly.
Maintaining the proper balance is crucial to our health. Both good and bad bacteria keep our immune system strong – vitally important if your body is forced to deal with a much bigger threat such as traumatic injury or operation recovery.
With the explosion of antibacterial products on the market – everything from hand soap to cleaning products to clothing – our immune systems are no longer accustomed to simple germs.
One: Probiotics Benefits and Immune System Health
When your immune system is weak, recovering from simple illnesses such as colds and the flu, infections or surgeries is much more difficult and takes far longer.
After taking antibiotics, our natural balance of good bacteria is disrupted because though antibiotics kill the bad bacteria causing the problem, they also kill much of the good bacteria that your body depends on.
Stefano Guandalini, MD and professor of pediatrics and gastroenterology at the University of Chicago Medical Center, states, “The immune system isn’t being properly challenged by pathogenic organisms. Introducing friendly b acteria in the form of probiotics is believed to
challenge the immune system in healthy ways.
Two: Probiotics Benefits and Diarrhea Prevention
One-third of the people prescribed antibiotics develop diarrhea and probiotics benefits have proven extremely successful in treating this side effect. An analysis by the Journal of the American Medical Association of more than 80 prior studies found that probiotics reduced antibiotic-induced diarrhea by as much as 42%.
A study done at Yale University researched the effectiveness of probiotics on many bodily systems.
Probiotics had a positive effect on preventing diarrhea regulating immune system responses, treating and preventing eczema and easing the discomfort and occurrence of digestive disorders.
Another study showed that 19% of the 600 plus day care children given a probiotics yogurt drink were less likely to contract ear infections, colds, diarrhea or strep throat.
Three: Probiotics Benefits and Fighting Infection
During a small study conducted at China’s North Sichuan Medical College and Hospital, researchers found that patients who suffered from traumatic brain injury also had compromised immune systems that were unable to fight infection.
Patients given probiotics in their feeding tube recovered faster and spent less time in intensive care than those patients treated with standard care.
Their bodies contained more infection-fighting T-cells, low levels of which can leave patients who are in fragile health susceptible to pneumonia and sepsis.
Study supervisor, Professor Jing-Ci Zhu, explained the benefit of an increase in T-cells. “Probiotic therapy reduced the number of infections occurring after seven days, reduced the number of different antibiotics needed to treat infections, and shortened the length of time the patients were required to stay in ICU.”
In the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers found that good gut bacteria sets the tone for how the rest of the body deals with infection and fights viruses.
Friendly bacteria helps the immune system respond faster and more effectively against a viral or bacterial threat.
The Cochrane Library journal published a similar study out of China that determined that probiotics benefits reduced the risk of upper respiratory tract infections by 12% in the 3,400 participants analyzed.
The British Journal of nutrition found that infants given Bifidobacterium lactis Bb-12 experienced less infections during their first year.
Four: Probiotics Benefits and Mood Regulation
University College – Cork Professor John Cryan and his team found that probiotics showed that it lowered anxiety, depression and stress in mice. Specifically, Lactobacillus rhamnosus altered brain chemistry and lowered stress hormone production. Cryan’s team believes good gut bacteria communicate with the brain using the vagus nerve.
Professor Cryan explained, “We could develop therapies that can treat psychiatric disorders by targeting the gut. You could take a yoghurt with a probiotic in it instead of taking an antidepressant.
These findings highlight the important role of bacteria in the communication between the gut and the brain, and suggest that certain probiotic organisms may prove to be useful in stress-related disorders.”
Nutrition – The Ultimate Key to Wellness
Nutrition is once again proven to be pivotal to overall body wellness. By adding probiotics to your diet, you can help your immune system stay strong, prevent digestive upset, fight infections, colds and flus more effectively and even regulate your mood.
If you currently have an ,showed that it lowered anxiety, depression and stressshowed that it lowered anxiety, depression and stress you should speak to your physician before increasing your intake of probiotics.
Additionally, it is important to research which strains of probiotics benefits are used in products you frequently eat such as yogurts and nutritional supplements.
By: Danica Collins
There are some scientific studies that suggest consuming probiotics, especially Lactobacillus acidophilus, can help relieve the symptoms of lactose intolerance and allow you to digest milk and other dairy products more easily. For instance, a 1995 article published in the "Journal of Dairy Science" notes that children who consumed milk with Lactobacillus supplements experienced fewer symptoms of lactose intolerance than those who drank milk without probiotic supplements.
8.prevent heart attacks and strokes
8.prevent heart attacks and strokes
While gut health and heart disease may seem unrelated at first glance, it turns out that the friendly bacteria living in our intestines may offer more benefits to our health than we ever imagined.
Over the last several decades, the research investigating the role that infection plays in heart disease has been mounting. Studies have found:
- An association between common systemic infections and heart disease (1)(2)(3)
- An association between gut infection and heart disease (4)(5)
Isn't dietary cholesterol the real cause of heart disease?
Even though cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, the jury is still out as to what exactly causes heart disease. (6) Popular opinion will tell us that the obvious cause for heart disease is a diet that is high cholesterol and in saturated fats.
But what happens when we look at traditional diets that were free of modern, processed conveniences? We find whole foods that are rich in both cholesterol and saturated fats. We also find no incidence of heart disease. (7)(8)
Still not convinced?
The latest medical literature reveals that there are many routes to heart disease, and that too many egg yolks is not necessarily one of them. In fact, for all the cholesterol in egg yolks, they are surprisingly protective. (9)(10)
If it is not cholesterol and saturated fats that lead to the buildup of atherosclerotic plaque, then what is the cause?
So far, the research points to several risk factors. A risk factor is something that increases a person's chance of getting a disease. Risk can be found in diet, lifestyle, or family history.
The risk factors for heart disease cover a wide spectrum of people and lifestyles. One thing that all heart disease risk factors have in common is oxidative stress. Oxidative stress happens on a cellular level. Excessive oxidative stress leads to the breakdown of cells and to tissue damage.
How does oxidative stress show up in the blood vessels? One way is in the form of atherosclerotic plaque. Atherosclerotic plaque is made up of:
- Immune cells, which play an important role in the inflammatory process
- Cell debris, which are pieces of cell from cells that have died
- Crystalline cholesterol (11)
When tissue becomes damaged, it becomes inflamed. If this goes on for too long, you see an ongoing vicious cycle of inflammation, leading to tissue damage, which in turn causes more inflammation, and so on.
Inflammation leads to the development and build up of plaque. The most recent studies on heart disease have found that inflammation is more related to heart disease than elevated levels of cholesterol! (12)(13)
How Leaky Gut Can Increase the Risk for Heart Disease
When we talk about the relationship between the digestive system and heart disease, we are really talking about another repercussion of a leaky, or permeable, gut lining.
Once the lining of the gut wall becomes permeable, something called an endotoxin can get into the bloodstream. Endotoxins are found in the cell wall of many disease-causing bacteria. When these bacteria die, the endotoxin is released.
Three things to remember about endotoxins and their role in heart disease:
1. Our immune system reacts strongly to endotoxins. When detected, the immune system will send out the message to begin an inflammatory response.
2. Endotoxins, which are pieces of disease-causing bacteria, can become lodged in human tissue and remain there for years, continually igniting an immune response.
3. Endotoxins, being pro-inflammatory, generate oxidative damage.
Endotoxins have been found in atherosclerotic plaque. These endotoxins are gut-derived. What this means is that a leaky gut lining allowed endotoxins to escape into the bloodstream. Based on this information, you would think that those with chronically leaky guts, or full-blown celiac disease, would be at higher risk for heart disease. And you would be correct. Studies show an increase risk of heart disease in celiac patients. (14) (15)
But anyone can have a leaky gut, not just those people with celiac disease. These are just some of the ways the gut wall can become permeable, or leaky:
- In times of stress, such as over-work or from lack of sleep
- When we over-eat
- From physical trauma
- During a gut infection
- After a bout of food poisoning
How Fermented Foods Can Reduce The Risk of Heart Disease
The relationship between infection and heart disease is so pronounced that one large trial even examined how effective an antibiotic may be in treating heart disease! (16) The antibiotic focused on fighting an infection caused by one single organism. At the end of the study, researchers found that it was unsuccessful in preventing heart disease or reducing the overall risk for heart disease. However, it furthered investigation into both prebiotic and probitoic therapy. (17)(18)(19)(20)
A prebiotic is a soluble fiber that feeds and nourishes the friendly bacteria living in our intestinal tract. Most of these bacteria have made their home in the lower end of the digestive tract, or what is commonly known as the large intestine.
A probiotic is a supplemental form of healthy bacteria. Usually, a probiotic offers one or several strains of healthy bacteria. While this is a good start, your gut is populated with a wide range of beneficial bacteria!
Fermented foods offer the best range of beneficial bacteria that can reduce inflammation, combat disease-causing microorganisms, and heal a permeable gut wall. When we eat fermented foods that are naturally rich in beneficial bacteria, we can bring balance to an unhealthy inner ecosystem and even reduce our risk of heart disease.

9.boost immune system-
Probiotics are living microscopic organisms, or microorganisms, that scientific research has shown to benefit your health. Most often they are bacteria, but they may also be other organisms such as yeasts. In some cases they are similar, or the same, as the “good” bacteria already in your body, particularly those in your gut. These good bacteria are part of the trillions of microorganisms that inhabit our bodies. This community of microorganisms is called the microbiota. Some microbiota organisms can cause disease. However, others are necessary for good health and digestion. This is where probiotics come in.
The most common probiotic bacteria come from two groups,Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium, although it is important to remember that many other types of bacteria are also classified as probiotics. Each group of bacteria has different species and each species has different strains. This is important to remember because different strains have different benefits for different parts of your body. For example,Lactobacillus has been shown to support the immune system and to help food move through the gut, but Lactobacillus bulgaricusmay help relieve symptoms of lactose intolerance, a condition in which people cannot digest the lactose found in most milk and dairy products. In general, not all probiotics are the same, and they don’t all work the same way.
Scientists are still sorting out exactly how probiotics work. So far we know:
They may:
*.Boost your immune system by enhancing the production of antibodies to certain vaccines.
*.Produce substances that prevent infection.
*.Prevent harmful bacteria from attaching to the gut lining and growing there.
*.Send signals to your cells to strengthen the mucus in your intestine and help it act as a barrier against infection.
*.Inhibit or destroy toxins released by certain “bad” bacteria that can make you sick.
*.Produce B vitamins necessary for metabolizing the food you eat, warding off anemia caused by deficiencies in B6 and B12, and maintaining healthy skin and a healthy nervous system.

10.soothe irritable bowel,belly pain and
bloating discomfort-
What is irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and who gets it?
IBS is a common functional disorder of the gut. A functional disorder means there is a problem with the function of a part of the body, but there is no abnormality in the structure. So, in IBS, the function of the gut is upset, but all parts of the gut look normal, even when looked at under a microscope. IBS causes various symptoms (listed below). Up to 1 in 5 people in the UK develop IBS at some stage in their life. IBS can affect anyone at any age, but it commonly first develops in young adults. IBS is slightly more common in women than it is in men.
Probiotics
Probiotics are nutritional supplements that contain good germs (bacteria). That is, bacteria that normally live in the gut and seem to be beneficial. Taking probiotics may increase the good bacteria in the gut which may help to ward off bad bacteria that may have some effect on causing IBS symptoms. You can buy probiotic capsules (various brands) from pharmacies. The dose is on the product label. You can also buy foods that contain probiotic bacteria. These include certain milk drinks, yoghurts, cheeses, frozen yoghurts, and ice creams. They may be labelled as 'probiotic', 'containing bacterial cultures' or 'containing live bacteria'.
There is some evidence that taking probiotics may help to ease symptoms in some people with IBS. At present, there are various bacteria that are used in probiotic products. Further research is needed to clarify the role of probiotics and which one or ones are most helpful. In the meantime, if you want to try probiotics, you should keep to the same brand of probiotic-containing product for at least four weeks to monitor the effect. Perhaps try a different probiotic for at least a further four weeks if the first one made no difference.

11.protects your liver-
The beneficial microbes inhabiting your gut have long been known to support digestive health, but deeper research is showing how intestinal bacteria controls and protects organ health. The liver, one of the organs reliant on a healthy balance of good bacteria, is our main detoxifying center. When we’re receiving enough probiotics (as well as prebiotics), it works more efficiently at removing toxins from our food and environment. It turns out that many of the liver’s metabolic functions are either enhanced or suppressed by the presence or lack of healthy bacteria in the gut.
How Gut Bacteria Protects Your Liver-
A recent study from the Imperial College of London looked at the effects of exposing germ-free mice to environmental microbiota. These mice gained weight after five days of exposure, and their livers also showed remarkable changes in metabolism. Changes in glucose, glycogen, and triglyceride metabolism were rapid following exposure to bacteria, suggesting just the simple exposure to one strain could either benefit or inhibit overall liver function. [1] Researchers also found that bacteria stimulated the enzyme responsible for drug-detoxifying pathways, potentially revealing that an influx of good bacteria could support the detoxification from pharmaceuticals or other chemicals.
Probiotics may also prevent the uptake of lipopolysaccharides in the intestines, which may reduce the likelihood of liver irritation. This may mean that probiotic intake may drastically reduce the risk of liver disease in some people. The inhibition of pathogens by probiotic supplementation has been suggested as a means for fighting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or NAFLD. [2] In addition to fighting pathogens, probiotics may also modulate the overproduction of cytokines which leads to NAFLD, among other health concerns. Prebiotics may provide even further benefit by feeding the probiotics and supporting the proliferation within the gut microbiome.
Other Ways to Support Liver Health
Your liver is a sophisticated machine, and it is easily able to process and remove various toxins you’re commonly exposed to every day. Unfortunately, the amount of toxins in our environment, our food, and everywhere in-between can place a tremendous burden on the liver, causing accumulation of toxic material. A liver cleanse can be helpful for supporting overall liver function by helping the detoxifying process. Eating organic will also reduce your toxic load, and research is showing that reducing pesticide exposure through eating organic may be helpful for protecting gut flora..

12.prevent tumor and cancer-
Probiotic supplements or foods may lower the risk of cancer development. Many links have been found between diet and cancer; research suggests that probiotics may be useful as part of an anti-cancer diet. Probiotics are live microorganisms that may suppress the growth of bacteria that transform procarcinogens into carcinogens. Procarcinogens are chemical substances that become carcinogenic after being altered by metabolic processes. A carcinogen is one of any number of substances involved in causing cancer. Many forms of cancer can also be caused by infections, but probiotics boost immune system functioning to better fight off virsuses and parasites.
Probiotics
Research presented in 2009 at the 3rd International Immunonutrition Workshop in Spain demonstrated a link between milk fermented containing the probiotic strain Lactobacillus helveticus and delayed growth of breast tumors. The study found that fermented milks can inhibit tumor growth by reducing the inflammatory response in cases of hormone-dependent breast cancer models and induced colon cancer.
Probiotics are also known as lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus), Bifidobacterium bifidus and lactic acid bacteria. These are all healthy bacteria that are similar to the good bacteria that resides in the intestinal tract. Sometimes people do not have enough good bacteria in their system. Probiotic foods can increase levels of healthy bacteria. However, only live strains help. The ideal probiotics are those that contain large amounts of living microorganisms, such as multiple Bifido and Lactobacillus strains. At least three billion live bacteria per serving is best.

Probiotics and the immune system
Probiotics help to strengthen the immune system and prevent diseases. By improving gut health, probiotics boost the body's immune defenses, which in turn fight infections. The intestinal tract is home to between 70 and 80 percent of the body's immune cells. If the immune cells are functioning well the body is more resistant to infection. Hepatitis B, hepatitis C, the human papillomavirus (HPV) and Helicobacter pylori are the four primary infections linked to cancer. Combined, these four infections cause around 1.9 million cancer causes annually. Probiotics are particularly helpful in reducing vaginal and urinary infections.
When the gut has plenty of healthy bacteria and flora full of probiotics it can more easily digest food and expel waste. Toxins and waste can back up in the intestinal tract instead of moving through the colon and out of the body when there is not enough healthy bacteria. These toxins can then get absorbed back into the body through the bloodstream. Toxicity in the body can interfere with oxidation, which can cause stress to cells that are not getting enough oxygen. Stressed cells do not function as well, which leaves the body vulnerable to infection.

Probiotic supplements, foods and doses
Yogurt is the food most commonly associated with probiotics but there are several others. Unfermented and fermented milk contain probiotics. Kefir is another dairy product that is a probiotic food. Non-dairy sources include tempeh, miso and some soy drinks and juices.
Probiotics are also sold in supplement form. Probiotic supplements come in tablet, capsule and powder forms. Supplements may contain 1 to 10 billion bacteria.
Probiotic foods and supplements may help with cancer prevention as well as several other conditions. Probiotics can help with diarrhea and other digestive problems. They may also assist with elimination, allergies and weight management...

Ang PRO15(Probiotics) ay may 10Billion Good Bacteria/15 strains..Unlike na bibili ka ng Brand X na Probiotics generic oh pharmacy na ang isang capsule nila na nag lalaman lamang ng 200millions 7Strain goodbacteria.. i compare mo sa pro15 na 1 capsule= 10billion GoodBacteria 15Strain...
Price Xbrand sa pharmacy 1 capsule=48 pesos
Pro15Probiotics=30 pesos.
malaki ang pinag kaiba nila sa bilang ng Good bacteria at presyo...
dahil nasubukan ko na itong products na ito at napakaganda ng resulta sa akin.. dahil nag loose ako ng weight, normal na ang pag dumi ko, better skin, nailalabas talaga ang lahat ng dumi sa aking katawan... tulad ng una kong pag take nito.. talagang yung dumi ko ay may itim itim pa at may sipon sipon.. normal po iyon dahil nililinis niya ang loob ng ating katawan....
Sa totoo lang nirereseta na rin ang Pro15Probiotics ng ibang mga doctor na nakaka kilala dito... kung ikaw ay may problema sa pag dumi at sa tiyan....
May isa nga akong kaibigan na nag pa problema sa tiyan.. at nag pa tingin nga siya sa doctor. at niresitahan ng Probiotics....
. Yan ang nireseta ng doctor sa kanya... Brand X ang binili nya.. at ang mahal ng per capsule.. pero ung pro15/probiotics ay mas mura at mas maganda ang benifits sa ating katawan.... Kung nabasa nyo ang aking Blog tungkol sa probiotics at Naintindihan nyo na ang probiotics ay napakahalaga sa ating katawan.... sa America nga Kapag nag ka problema sa sa tiyan mo oh may sakit ka.. mismong gobyerno na ang nag uutos sa doctor na mag reseta ng probiotics, sa pasyente,, dito sa pilipinas nasanay tayo sa Antibiotics...
