How Do Probiotics Work
Probiotics work in many different ways by their production of antimicrobial substances (organic acids, hydrogen peroxide, and bacteriocins) that inhibit pathogen adhesion and degrade toxins produced by microbial invaders. Probiotics resist colonization by competing for binding sites as well as for nutrients with pathogens. In other words, they crowd out pathogens like candida and harmful E. Coli.
Probiotics secrete various proteins that stimulate the immune system both locally and throughout the body, boost intestinal brush border enzyme activity and increase secretory-IgA (a family of antibodies lining mucous membranes). Enzymes like lactase, sucrase, maltase, alpha-glucosidase, and alkaline phosphatase are enhanced by probiotics. Cholesterol and triglyceride blood levels are metabolized and lowered by healthy probiotic populations. Probiotics are able to resist translocation, defined as the passage of pathogens from the GI tract to extraintestinal sites such as the mesenteric lymph node (MLN), spleen, liver, kidneys, and blood.
Benefits of Probiotics
The following are the most well documented benefits of taking probiotics regularly:
– Weaken antibiotic resistant bacterial strains, attack new types of pathogens (supergerms) and infections in immuno-compromised people requiring treatment (i.e. resist opportunistic infections like candidiasis)
– Manufacture B vitamins (biotin, B3, B5, B6, folic acid, B12) and vitamin K
– Secrete lactase, an enzyme required to break down lactose in milk
– Act as anti-cancer factors (especially for bladder and bowel) by inhibiting bacteria that convert nitrates into nitrites
– Inhibit bacteria that secrete carcinogens
– Function as natural antibiotics against unfriendly bacteria, viruses and yeast like Candida albicans
– Enhance bowel function and elimination; prevent constipation
– Reverse diarrhea conditions (Crohn’s disease, AIDS, Traveller’s)
– Reduce or eliminate bloating, gas, straining and abdominal pain due to any cause
– Prevent skin problems, especially acne and other skin infections. (FYI – most chronic acne conditions in adults are often improved or eliminated by a good bowel flora balance).
– Protect against the adverse effects of radiation and pollutants
– Reduce blood levels of cholesterol and triglycerides
– Fight stress and food cravings and thereby prevent or reverse obesity
– Help eliminate bad breath
– Optimize sex hormone levels, enhance fertility and prevent osteoporosis
– Produce lactic acid, improve the digestibility of foods
– Oppose putrefactive bacteria like bacteroides associated with a meat-rich diet
– Treat eczema, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s Disease, irritable bowel syndrome, all cancers, gastritis, duodenitis, diverticulitis, food allergies, lactose intolerance, environmental allergies, urinary tract infections, vaginitis, other chronic infections (TB, AIDS, Herpes, venereal diseases) and autoimmune diseases (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis, lupus, alopecia areata, scleroderma, thyroiditis, etc.)
