Should We Be Taking Probiotics? by OwolabiAbayomi(m): 2:00pm On Nov 26, 2014
What are Probiotics?
Probiotics are whole colonies of living, good bacteria. They make their way to your digestive tract, where they multiply and fight the bad bacteria.
You can get probiotics in some foods, like live culture yogurt and kefir. Unfortunately, the beneficial bacteria has to go through your stomach before it can getto your digestive tract and your stomach acid will kill off huge
numbers of those bacteria before they ever get where they’re
supposed to go. Also, there are many kinds of good bacteria
and not every food contains every one of them. This is important to know because different types help different parts of your body.
