What Are Probiotics and Why Do I Care?

What Are Probiotics?
Probiotics enhance and multiply the good gut bacteria in our intestines that keeps us healthy. We all have billions of bacteria in our intestines from the day we are born. Most of these bacteria are beneficial and contribute to our health. However it is known that when the beneficial bacteria begin to be outnumbered by the more undesirable types, our health can suffer and in many cases this leads to:

• Depressed Immune Functionality
• Increased Infections
• Increased intestinal disturbance
• Increase in severity and inflammation condition and allergy
• Decreased digestive function and integrity

Why Should I Take Probiotics?
First of all not all probiotics are the same. We recommend that you follow your health care practitioners advice but if you are looking for recommendations we suggest Innate Choice Probiotic Sufficiency as well as Pharmax now Seroyal’s line of HLC Probiotics. We’re going to focus on HLC’s line of probiotics and their specific benefits for the remainder of this article.

HLC probiotics contain the most important beneficial bacteria found in the intestine. So by taking HLC probiotics you start to restore the healthy dominance of “good bacteria” in the gut. Taking probiotics is now considered to be a necessary part of everyon’s health program but supplementing with probiotics is particularly important if our own intestinal flora has become depleted. Some factors that cause depletion include:

• Age or Stress
• Antibiotic or other medication use
• Dietary or lifestyle changes
• Illness
• Infection
• Digestive Disorders

If any of these factors are relevant to you HLC probiotics are likely to benefit your health.

Are HLC Probiotics Safe?

The HLC range of probiotics contains only lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria types of bacteria. These are the most beneficial types of bacteria in the intestine and the different strains used in tehy HLC range have been specially selected for the benefits indicated in each product. All these human strain bacteria are completely safe for short and long term consumption, even for infants and the elderly. Their effectiveness and safety have been proven in hospital clinical trials in the UK.

How Should I Take HLC Probiotics?

• Check with your doctor or pharmacist for the most appropriate HLC probiotic product for you. On a personal note I prefer the HLC High Potency Powder as it tastes great with the infused apricot flavor.
• Take with food
• If you are taking antibiotics, take the HLC product 6 hours away from the time the antibiotic is taken.

How Shoud I Store HLC Probiotics?

We recommend the fridge. This line of probiotics will retain its full potency for 3 months at ambient room temperature but storing in the fridge or freezer will allow you to store it for longer periods and will also ensure maximum potency is maintained.
