Probiotics are micro-organisms that contribute to the health of the intestinal tract. They are the good bacteria that help to fight illness and disease. Good health starts in the gut and probiotics can help to support healthy levels of good bacteria. The correct levels can then help to keep  the intestinal tract healthy and help to correct bowel problems such as bloating and IBS for example.

Many factors can upset the delicate balance of gut flora including antibiotics, excessive alcohol intake, illness, stress, high toxic load and poor diet. These factors can cause bad bacteria to thrive leading to health problems.

Antibiotics don’t discriminate between good and bad bacteria which means that they destroy beneficial intestinal flora which can often cause diarrhoea as well as an overgrowth of the fungus Candida albicans. This fungus can grow and create many problems in the body – probiotics can help to restore the balance of good bacteria and correct the overgrowth of candida.
