What are probiotics and
why do I need them?
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that, when ingested, help
support healthy microbial balance in the gut. * Healthy human
intestines contain billions of microorganisms both good and
potentially harmful. The good bacteria in the intestines are
considered an integral part of normal immune system support.
Probiotics are important because they can synthesize certain
vitamins and short-chain fatty acids to support a healthy
intestinal lining and bolster immunity. * When your intestinal
lining is occupied by healthy beneficial flora, it leaves
unwelcome microorganisms deprived of both space and nutrients.
Healthy people usually have a ratio of approximately 85% good
and 15% potentially harmful organisms in the intestinal tract.
In some cases, even those who appear to be well might have an
unfavorable ratio as a result of daily exposure to environmental
toxins and a modern lifestyle. For example, taking antibiotics
and drinking chlorinated water, may often change the optimal
microbial balance essential for good health.
Garden of Life believes that probiotics are their most
beneficial when they are not separated from their food source.
The probiotics in Primal Defense® are cultured with whole foods
and then left intact. Many probiotic companies separate the
probiotics from their food source. This is why so many
probiotics need to be kept refrigerated. Once stripped of their
food source, probiotics need to be kept refrigerated in order to
remain viable. But what happens when these probiotics are
introduced to the acidic environment of the stomach that is at
98.6 degrees? For this reason, Garden of Life believes the
probiotic food source is as important to the delivery of the
benefits of probiotics as the probiotics themselves.
