What are Probiotics?
They are microorganisms that may provide health benefits when consumed. The term probiotic is currently used to name these ingested microorginisms associated with beneficial effects to humans and animals. Probiotics are generally considered safe — they’re already present in a normal digestive system — although there’s a theoretical risk for people with impaired immune function. Be sure the ingredients are clearly marked on the label and familiar to you or your health provider: http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/83/6/1256.full InnerTrition, Inner Essentials Probiotic Bacillus coagulans is a lactic acid-forming bacterial species within the genus Bacillus coagulans has been added by the EFSA to their Qualified Presumption of Safety list B. coagulans is often marketed as Lactobacillus sporogenes or a 'sporeforming lactic acid bacterium' probiotic, but this is an outdated name due to taxonomic changes in 1939. Although B. coagulans does produce L+lactic acid, the bacterium used in these products is not a lactic-acid bacterium, as Bacillus species do not belong to the lactic acid bacteria. By definition, lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium) do not form spores. Therefore, using the name Lactobacillus sporogenes is scientifically incorrect. Fructooligosaccharide (scFOS) are considered prebiotics. After they are consumed, fructooligosaccharides move to the large intestine to stimulate the production of microbiota in the colon and gastrointestinal track. Microbiotas are "friendly, beneficial" bacteria. Microbiotas produce essential nutrients such as short-chain fatty acids; control epithelial cell growth (the cells that line body cavities); prevent overgrowth of infectious organisms; boost intestinal immunity; and prevent inflammation, diarrhea and other intestinal conditions. This "essential ecosystem" provides an important "balance between health and disease" in the body. Fructooligosaccharides also increase calcium absorption in the body, an important consideration for pre- and post-menopausal women, ages 45 and older, who are losing critical bone mass that increases their risk for osteoporosis and bone fractures. I have been using this product for six months and have noticed a significant improvement in digestive health and feeling of wellbeing
