Probiotics The Least Understood Diet Supplement
Probiotics are probably the least understood dietary supplement. Don't you just hate it when people don't understand you? So let's start to understand just what they are and how they can benefit you. A good definition is "They are live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit." This means that lots of healthy bacteria living in the "gut" have potential to improve your health. I like that idea. Any improvement in health is a real bonus. Antibiotics do not discriminate between the "good" and "bad" bacteria. Killing the "good" bacteria can leave the body vulnerable to a variety of problems. A word of caution: Antibiotics are often necessary, but should be taken only when needed. Excessive use has created resistant strains of some disease and allergic reactions in many people
