Acidophilus - Not All Bacteria is Bad

There are over 100,000 billion viable bacteria in your digestive system made up of some 400 different kinds. Maintaining a proper balance between “friendly” bacteria and bad bacteria is important to good health.

With the explosive use of antibiotics today, many people may experience unexpected side effects as the good bacteria are destroyed along with disease causing bacteria. Along with decreased digestive function, you may also experience gas, bloating, toxicity, or bad breath. This also leaves the system vulnerable to an overgrowth of candida.

Restore Digestive System to Proper Balance

Acidophilus (also known as Lactobacillus acidophilus or L. acidophilus) is a probiotic. Probiotics are dietary supplements containing live bacteria taken orally to restore beneficial bacteria to the body. These supportive bacteria can help restore the digestive system to a proper balance and reduce or eliminate many undesired side effects. By suppressing destructive yeasts and bacteria, a healthy balance is achieved providing you with maximum benefits.

Ongoing research has revealed a number of possible uses for Acidophilus. Acidophilus works to break down food in the small intestine and leads to the production of lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, as well as other products which help suppress detrimental organisms. Acidophilus also helps produce lactase, an enzyme which breaks down milk sugar (lactase) into simple sugars. This may aid individuals with lactose intolerance. This helpful bacteria is also key in production of vitamin K.

There is strong research to show that L. Acidophilus may be helpful in dealing with bacterial vaginosis. Other uses include the possible reduction or prevention of some diarrheas and alleviation of irritable bowel syndrome symptoms and, possibly, inflammatory bowel disease (such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis).
