Introduction to probiotics / Definition:

Probiotics are considered to be healthy microorganisms that can provide benefits and improve the overall health or quality of life of an individual under the right numbers. You can call them good bacteria as opposed to the bad ones. Under the right numbers means that you have to have a lot of these probiotics in your body in order for them to have a positive effect on your health. Scientists say that we need on average a few hundreds of billions. It might sound like a lot but don't worry about it, they live in very large colonies and besides, they multiply really fast and have a very efficient way to do so and it's completely different than how other organisms multiply.

Bacteria use binary fission where a bacterium creates two sister bacteria from its own body. That's pretty much how they do it, and believe it or not, that is not the amazing thing here, as if cloning themselves was not enough, it's amazing how many times they can do it in a short period of time. According to scientific research, probiotic bacteria can multiply or go through binary fission successfully every half an hour if not even more frequently, however certain conditions must be met, like temperatures, nutrition, basically things they need, just like we humans need certain things in order for pregnancy to happen or in order to perform well, to be healthy and so on, these are requirements.

Probiotic benefits:

For one, they can improve digestion. This is fact, it is not something that scientists think might be possible, it has been seen and proven. Probiotic bacteria participate in the process of digestion where they break down and digest the food and the nutrients and help the body and the digestive enzymes with digestion and nutrient extraction and absorption and so on. Also there in the intestines, they help keep bad bacteria away from causing trouble by inhibiting their growth and creating an unhealthy environment for them to be in which helps, of course, reduce health problems, specifically infections caused by bacteria.
