Beneficial bacterial keeps you away from your doctors.

If you one day happen to hear people talking about "bacteria" improving health, don't get surprised at all! They are probably talking about the "beneficial bacteria" (also called "Probiotics"). So what are they?

Human intestine is home to a hundred different kinds of bacteria. But don't be scared just by the name - while some of them may be harmful to us, the others can actually do us a lot of good! Bad bacteria produces toxic substances that can make us ill, but beneficial bacteria ("Probiotics") are essential for good health!

Beneficial bacteria are bacteria that improve our digestive health. They produce lactic acid and acetic acid that promote digestion in our intestine and help to remove bad cholesterols from our blood. They balance the acidity of our body and get rid of toxic substances from our body. Beneficial bacteria also help to fortify our immune system, help us absorb nutrients such as vitamins, proteins, good fatty compounds and carbohydrates. They even help our body produce vitamins and amino acids.

Why do we need to balance the "ecosystem" in our own intestine?

Beneficial bacteria are our natural defenders against harmful bacteria. They are part of our immune system that inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria. Imbalance between beneficial and harmful bacteria results in problems such as diarrhea, constipation, gastrointestinal infections, dry skin, inefficient absorption of nutrients, high blood pressure and even cancer.

Beneficial bacteria stop multiplying in our body one year after birth. Afterwards we need to acquire them from food. If the number of beneficial bacteria decreases, harmful bacteria will take over. Our immune system will be weakened and small problems will turn into BIG problems.

Now more and more people begin to understand that we need "beneficial bacteria" and they are important to us. Many understand that good health comes from a healthy digestive system.

City dwellers, Pay Attention Now!

Many city dwellers think that taking antibiotics can speed up the curing process for adult and children. What they don't understand is antibiotics kill the beneficial bacteria as well as the harmful ones in our intestine. That only further weakens the patients.

World Health Organization has urged people to restrict the use of antibiotics as early as 1994. Instead of relying on antibiotics, WHO recommends that people can restore their natural immunity by inoculating themselves with beneficial bacteria that kill off the pathogenic bacteria. In 2002, a WHO report points out that taking beneficial bacteria as health supplement helps to build a balanced microbial environment in the intestine and improves digestive function. Therefore, it is very important to acquire enough beneficial bacteria!

Should I take in as much beneficial bacteria as possible?

The answer is NO. Beneficial bacteria can bring us health in digestive system but not all the time. The appropriate level of beneficial bacteria differs from person to person and changes with age and the person's strength of immunity. Patients who are undergoing steroid or anti-rejection therapy after organ transplantation, or cancer therapy should not eat food containing beneficial bacteria. Patients who have had intestine surgery or are having antibiotic therapy should also avoid beneficial bacteria.

We recommend a daily intake of 1 to 2 billion of active beneficial bacteria. Excessive beneficial bacteria will only be defecated. Chinese people contain relatively less natural beneficial bacteria in their bowels and are recommended to acquire more.
