The Solid Science Behind Prebiotics And Probiotics For Better Health

Trusted Health Products
Written By Emma Sturgis / Reviewed By Ray Spotts
Bacteria aren't always the enemy. Every healthy human body is home to millions of beneficial bacteria that aid in crucial daily functions, particularly in the digestive system. These microscopic organisms may be hardy, but poor dietary choices and ongoing health issues can disrupt their ecosystem. Waning levels of beneficial bacteria can cause numerous digestive problems as well as other health issues over time.

The Damage Of A Modern Diet

Fresh food, high natural fiber content and minimal processing are all associated with good digestive health. Unfortunately, the imbalanced nature of many people's daily diet can have devastating effects on their bacteria's ecosystem. Research has shown that consistently poor dietary choices are linked to declining levels of beneficial bacteria and emergence of various health problems, including chronic indigestion and a weakened immune system.

Bolstering Bacteria Colonies

Probiotic Formula for Adults and Children contains strains of beneficial bacteria to supplement those already inhabiting the digestive system. These supplements are particularly useful for helping bacterial colonies establish themselves back to healthy levels. However, serious and consistent dietary changes are often required to maintain long-term digestive health, even when taking probiotics on a regular basis.

Fostering Future Growth

Unlike probiotics, which directly supplement bacterial colonies, prebiotics create a friendlier environment that will help these organisms thrive. Prebiotic fiber is composed of food items that aren't digested through the typical mechanisms in the stomach and intestine, like the kind found in the skin of fruits and vegetables. This kind of material ferments once it reaches the large intestine, which releases chemicals that fuel the growth of beneficial bacteria.

How Digestion Impacts Overall Health

With nutritional science solidly behind the importance of prebiotic and probiotic supplements for maintaining good digestive health, it's also important to understand how this impacts your overall well-being. Digestion is the integration of new resources, which your body needs to send nerve signals, repair tissue and perform every other vital function. Loss of your digestive microbiome can have devastating consequences for virtually every aspect of your health, ranging from brain function to blood pressure.

While there is ample science to show the benefits of prebiotics and probiotics, you should never use them as a replacement for a professional diagnosis. Addressing bacterial imbalance can solve incontinence, abdominal pain and other digestive issues, but these issues could also be symptoms of a different underlying health problem that needs to be addressed by a medical professional.
