Probiotics May Help you Live Longer

We know that about 60-65% of our immune system is mitigated by the intestines.  We also know that in order to have a balanced immune system, our gut must be balanced and that can only happen if our bacterial levels are balanced.  Diet and certain medications are the most significant variables that determine the health of our gut.  Of course, stress contributes to imbalances, but it's what we put into our intestines that determines whether we have the correct amount and type of bacteria in our body.   

Now, a study published in the journal, Cell, shows us what happens, and why, to our aging bodies that necessitates our supplementing with full-spectrum, non-dairy probiotics on a regular basis.

As we age, oxidation causes changes within the intestinal cells concurrently with the suppression of the production of a class of molecule, PGRP-SC, which regulates our immune response to bacteria. Supplementing with probiotics (not the "stuff" that is advertised on television or magazines) augments the gut's good bacteria while diminishing the destructive affects resulting from cellular oxidation.  There have been a number of studies showing the importance of bacterial health and balance not only in IBS, IBD, Collitis, Chron's and other intestinal problems, but also such seemingly unrelated imbalances  as autism, depression and rheumatoid arthritis.

I recommend daily supplementation with a probiotic for everyone.  Unfortunately, not all probiotics are created equal.  The most important variable is how many of the vital live bacteria a supplement has and how long those bacteria remain viable.  There are specific bioactive forms of these important bacteria that very few companies offer.  We carry only the bioactive forms of probiotics.
