Uses And Health Benefits Of Probiotics
Natural probiotics have been around for centuries in the form of fermented foods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, miso and yogurt. However, they seem to be the latest health food trend; eating 'good' bacteria leads to better digestive health, say experts. There is a better way to consume the beneficial bacteria our bodies need and it comes in an easy to consume supplement form. Products that contain probiotics and a combination of other ingredients are gaining popularity since they offer wider benefits for health.

One present use of probiotics is combating digestive problems and yeast infections caused by antibiotics. Probiotic bacteria reside in the digestive tract and can provide several health benefits, ranging from lowering cholesterol and boosting immunity, to reducing the effects of lactose intolerance, constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, and even gum disease. Additional studies suggest probiotics may help decrease the risk of colon cancer and the more serious inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. They even help assist in digestion and the absorption of nutrients.

According to recent studies and conferences on probiotics, the following are some promising general areas for probiotics.

• Colic -- Colic usually occurs in infants that are less than three months in age. Crying can continue for up to four hours. If your child is suffering from colic, probiotic help is on the way! According to recent research published in the medical journal Pediatrics, supplementing your baby with the beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus reuteri may help reduce colic symptoms by as much as ninety percent!

• Hay Fever -- According to a study performed by members of the IFR (Institute of Food Researchers), drinking a glass of milk with the Lactobacillus casein Shirota strain may help reduce the negative immune response noted when a person begins manifesting the symptoms of hay fever. Hay fever is most commonly caused by pollen. Try drinking one serving a day when hay fever season sets in. According to the researchers, it is possible that increasing the amount of good bacteria in your colon can help reduce the amount of allergy agents in your bloodstream, thereby reducing the chances of developing full-blown hay fever.

Probiotics, as part of a regular healthy diet, may help to support the immune system and mitigate illnesses. Probiotics may stimulate certain immune cells. This could help prevent stomach and respiratory infections in children as well as skin infections. Probiotics offer health benefits that go beyond the scope of supporting digestive health. Probiotics show evidence to help prevent respiratory infections such as the cold and flu.
