14 Profound Benefits of Probiotics

December 17, 2018 | Search Recipes Here

After decades of bombardment from yogurt commercials, the word probiotic is probably one that won’t be leaving your vocabulary. Most people know that probiotics can help with digestion, and you probably have friends who suggest you take probiotics at least once a week. But what do probiotics actually do for us?

Are they worth buying? Can you get them through other means or exclusively through yogurt? The potent health benefits that probiotics have to offer include increased nutrient intake, a boost for your immune system, loss of weight, improved mood, better gut health, and even the prevention of diarrhea, Crohn’s disease, and cancer.

Probiotics help your body balance the amount of good and bad bacteria that live in the digestive tract. They can also reduce fatigue and pain. Probiotics have a lot to offer, so how about we go over each benefit one by one? Without further adieu, here are 14 profound benefits of probiotics.

1. Balance your microbiome

The number one benefit of probiotics is its ability to keep the bacteria in your gut in check. It ensures that a healthy balance of good bacteria is ever-present so that bad bacteria and yeast can’t take over your stomach.

Good bacteria levels might be reduced due to stress, antibacterial soap, antibiotics, colonoscopies, surgery, chemotherapy, and countless other things. With so many threats to the good bacteria that defends your stomach, it’s imperative that you keep levels up.

The best way to do this is by regularly taking a probiotic supplement that can repopulate your gut with all the good bacteria that it needs to stay healthy.

Imagine for a moment that good bacteria is all of mankind, whenever populations drop, you need to get those numbers back up to stabilize the population, otherwise, civilization will suffer drastic consequences like war, famine, and ultimately, extinction. Bottom line: keep the good bacteria alive.
