PROBIOTICS HELP STOMACH HEALTHBY KATHLEEN BERRY-HEBERT
IN A HEALTHY STOMACH:
• There are over 500 different bacterial species
• ~85% of the bacteria are beneficial
• ~15% are pathogens (bad bacteria)
IN REALITY
According to The Healthy Home Economist, most people have an inverse of healthy gut— mostly pathogens instead of beneficial bacteria
WHAT ALLOWS MORE NEGATIVE BACTERIA INTO THE STOMACH?
• Antibiotics
• Birth Control Pills
• Medications
• Processed Foods
• Foods high in sugar
STOMACHS WITH HIGHER AMOUNT OF PATHOGENS EXPERIENCE:
• Diarrhea
• Constipation
• Excessive gas
• Bloating
• Allergies
• Eczema
• Irritable bowl
• Kidney stones
• Ear infections
• Strep throat
• Colds
• Yeast Infections
• Crohn’s Disease
• Lactose Intolerance
IF YOU’RE SUFFERING,STEP 1: INTRODUCE A PROBIOTIC
• Probiotics introduce more positive bacteria and
prevent growth of pathogens, yeast, and fungi in the
gut
• Probiotics have many other benefits for various
locations throughout the body
STEP 2: KNOWING WHEN TO TAKE THE PROBIOTIC
• The probiotic should be taken immediately after a
meal
• If taken on an empty stomach, the high levels of
stomach acid could destroy some of the probiotic
bacteria
STEP 3: WHERE TO TREAT?
• If treating/clearing out the mouth, throat, nasal
passages or ears, it is suggested to empty the
capsule in the mouth and gurgled before being
swallowed
• Then avoid water for some time after to allow the
bacteria to sink in and set in
