Before You Buy Another Probiotic-Read This

By Waldmar Jones

Are you putting up with gas, bloating, and embarrassing bathroom breaks? Have you tried probiotics? Picking the correct strains and the strength is essential for success. If your digestive distress is not addressed it can easily become more serious

Do you know how important it was to have an army of friendly bacteria in your digestive system? If you have more unfriendly bacteria in your system you may be experiencing bloating, gas, acid reflux, plus much more.

Probiotic, or good bacteria, is essential for your overall health. Without them it would be difficult to break down the food you eat and absorb the nutrients you need. Without them you may not be able to eliminate the bad bacteria like e coli and salmonella. Probiotics help keep control of fungus and mold from running out of control in your digestive system.

Thats why supplementing with a probiotic formula is important as you get older. But it is important to pick one that gives you excellent results. It is important to have the correct species and the correct strains. It should contain a balance of both major species, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria. It also should contain multiple strains of each of these species.

Read the labels, and youll see many of the supplements out there contain only one or two strains. When you see a formula that combines this many strains you know it is superior. Lactobacillus harnesses Bifidobacterium bifidum Lactobacillus acidophilus Lactobacillus casei Lactobacillus plantarum Lactobacillus salivarius Bifidobacterium longum Streptococccus thermophilus Lactobacillus bulgaricus Lactobacillus paracasei Bifidobacterium infantis

Also look at the labels and make sure they do not contain chemical additives, corn, gluten, MSG, pesticides, soy, fillers or artificial favors. - 16004
