There is a very large number of micro-organisms in the gastrointestinal
tract, that are collectively referred to as “intestinal flora”. These
“probiotic” organisms are absolutely vital for proper functioning of
the colon, and a healthy digestive system. The function and equilibrium
of the intestinal flora, however, is very sensitive and may be easily
impaired or upset due to a variety of unhealthy influences. These influences
may include medications (especially antibiotics), alcohol consumption,
indigestion, food additives, environmental pollution, the effects of
stress (eg: travel diarrhea), or the multiplication of unwanted or harmful
intestinal bacteria due to illness, stress, or diet.
Lactobacillus acidophilus is an especially resistant and beneficial
bacterium. It can live as long as 10 days or more in the digestive system,
and it tends to create an unfavourable environment for different harmful
pathogens such as clostridiums, coli bacteria, or fungi. It may promote
the utilization of milk proteins, amino acids, fats and lactose, and
assists in the synthesis of B vitamins. Lactobacillus acidophilus helps
provide support for a healthy digestive system, by helping to maintain
the normal bacterium flora of the alimentary canal.
Psyllium is a fibre derived from the seeds of Plantago ovata. Fiber
is very beneficial for the digestive tract as it binds with undigested
waste products in the intestine and helps eliminate them. As well, fibre
acts like a sponge, absorbing water and thereby many of the harmful
substances which may be present in the digestive tract such as toxins,
heavy metals, bile acids, fats and cholesterol. A high fibre diet also
helps preserve the health of the cardiovascular system.
ATTENTION!
You should consult with a qualified medical practitioner, before taking
any supplement.
If you are taking medication or other dietary supplements, there should be a minimum two-hour interval between taking those, and taking Acidophilus with Psyllium.
In case of any kind of gastrointestinal discomfort, condition or disease
(eg: diarrhea, ulcers, Crohn’s disease) seek qualified medical advice
before taking the product.
