PROBIOTICS FOR GOOD GUT HEALTH

Refrigerated Probiotics-the only kind we sell.....
Give your gut health a boost, bolstering natural microflora and laying the foundation for optimal digestion and regular bowel movements with Flora’s line of refrigerated probiotics. Lifestyle and environmental factors can compromise the digestive system but adding probiotics into the dietary mix can help boost the good bacteria, keeping the bad in balance and helping to maintain a healthy microflora, naturally. Flora’s Probiotic Blends are unique in that they’ve been developed to survive the stomach acids so that they can be as effective as possible when they reach the intestinal tract.

Prebiotics are compounds in food that induce the growth or activity of beneficial microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The most common example is in the gastrointestinal tract, where prebiotics can alter the composition of organisms in the gut microbiome.

Probiotics are live microorganisms promoted with claims that they provide health benefits when consumed, generally by improving or restoring the gut flora. Probiotics are considered generally safe to consume, but may cause unwanted side effects in rare cases.
We recommend that if you are on an antibiotic, that you use a probiotic and take it at a different time than when you take the antibiotic. Antibiotics destroy our good flora so that is why we recommend a probiotic.
There are many shelf stable probiotics now available but we do not recommend them. They are a live bacteria so we feel they should be kept refrigerated.
When buying a probiotic always buy from your local health food store as you will get a good quality product.
When we travel, we always take a probiotic 2 weeks before, while we are away and 2 weeks after we come home.
At this time, it is recommended by natural health practitioners, that we take a probiotic to help keep us safe from Covid, along with Vitamin C, D3 and Zinc.
