WHOA! How do you say that one? MannaLife International explores the wonderful world of probiotics. We are going to look first at our friend lactobacillus rhamnosus and what his role is. MannaLife International believes that probiotics are now an essential part of obtaining and maintaining a nutritional balance. That’s why we include 20 plus types of the beneficial Lactobacillus bacteria in almost all of our formulations.

First off, what’s a probiotic bacteria? These are the “good” bacteria in your intestinal tract that help you digest your food. These little guys are extremely resilient and are can tolerate acidic environments.

So why do I need these good bacteria?

•    Because they can survive highly acidic environments they are known to help fight any invaders (like bad bacteria and viruses)
•    Assists in intestinal functionality
•    Supports your immune system by stimulating natural antibody production
•    Acts as an anti-inflammatory
•    Supports normal blood pressure
•    Helps promote regularity

More and more studies, approximately 12,800, have been performed on the benefits of taking a probiotic like lactobacillus rhamnosus. The other studies that have been conducted with lactobacillus rhamnosus is that they release their own acids and hydrogen peroxide which can inhibit pathogen growth. They act like little shields in our intestines.

If you’re not on a  probiotic its worth looking into. The food in the average American diet is not one that promotes healthy intestinal bacteria. Change your diet and throw in some probiotics and you never know what might happen.

Yours in Health,

MannaLife International
