An easy way to understand Probiotics and how to get them where they will work

OK, there is a lot of information on the web about Probiotics. I didn't know there were Pre-biotics, and I'm wondering if there are post-biotics, of course we all know about anti-biotics. ........uh, Sorry, small tangent there.

Here is a basic definition of Pro-Biotic: A probiotic is also referred to as the "friendly", "beneficial", or "good" bacteria which when ingested acts to maintain a healthy intestinal tract and help fight illness and disease.

OK I have been reading about these little bugs that we host in our guts (intestines) and didn't realize I have been a very bad landlord. Let me tell you why. Two of the most damaging substances to the delicate intestinal flora balance (my gut bugs) are chlorine and sodium fluoride, and if these sound familiar they are in almost all treated city water. I know, you drink bottled water!!! SO DO I, but I also get sweet tea, Diet Coke, Lemonade from ChickFilA, all of which have ICE in them, you guessed it, made from city drinking water. Lets not discuss the amount of ice water in the cocktail drinks I have when out on a date with my wife or drinking with the guys.

Which leads me to the next little destroyer of my Gut Bugs. The drinking of alcoholic beverages also contributes to the destruction of them. Here are a few more that you may realize you use: medical antibiotics, birth control pills and many other allopathic drugs. Worst of all for me is Coffee, I have to have mine everyday or it's bad news. Well it's always bad news for the good bacteria in your gut.

So when you start destroying good bacteria and allowing undesirable bacteria to multiply the trouble starts. When the ratio of good bacteria to bad is lowered, problems begin to arise such as excessive gas, bloating, constipation, intestinal toxicity and poor absorption of nutrients. According to some of the reports I read when you lower the ratio enough you create an environment that allow nasty bugs all the way up to cancerous one to grow. NOT GOOD.

So, I'm now committed to eating foods that will increase the growth of my good bugs in my gut. Another Problem. One: I'm not a gardener, this would mean taking Pre-biotics (enhance the growth of already existing good bugs) Two: while it is true that certain foods - especially live yogurt, Japanese Miso, Tempeh and some cheeses have a probiotic action in the gut, you can never be sure what strain of bacteria you are eating or exactly how much is contained in these foods. And there is no way of knowing just how many of those replacement bacteria are going to survive and make it all the way through the acidic and bug-killing environment of the stomach. AH HA! Always one more problem to deal with :-(

So you see I have enough on my plate to change my meal plan to get in the right type of food for this, plus enough protein for my workouts, AND now I have a bully(Stomach) tearing up everything I do for my bugs.

Solution: A pill. I love this type of solution, and I don't mean to be immature about describing this stuff but after reading words like "Strains of the genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, putrefactive (proteolytic) microbes or the ability to bind with hetercyclic amines, which are carcinogenic substances which took me hours to figure out which were good or bad. I thougt what the hell, someone needs to describe it with some color.

So you take a pill and all is well. Sort of. Back to that bully, your stomach. Well if you take a Pro-biotic that doesn't have an acid proof coating, well you get very little of what the bugs in your gut can use. Here we go again $ down the toilet - literally. There are products that provide Pro-biotics with an acid protective coating. So when you decide to "help your bugs help you" you need to go with a pro-biotic that is coated.

This is a link to a product overview pdf with a specially formulated coating of pro-biotics that provides live bacteria to your gut to help you see all the benefits pro-biotics provide.
