Doctors Now Know What Your Grandmother Knew All Along

The following piece by Mike Homisak talks about the gradual acknowledgement by the mainstream medical establishment of probiotics benefits for a healthy gut.  Which is to say – healthy digestive and immune systems.

Doctors Recognize Probiotics Benefits

It is only recently that mainstream doctors are recognizing the benefits of probiotics supplements. For many years (and to some degree even now), probiotics have been misunderstood – at times even dismissed as a farce. However with well known mainstream doctors such as Dr. Russell Blaylock M.D.* recommending them for a growing list of ailments, other medical practitioners are standing up and taking notice.

Many cases have been documented of patients ailing with digestive complaints like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Diverticulitis and other conditions that improve with the addition of probiotics in their diet over time. Some patients show an improvement almost immediately, others have taken longer. Some recover completely while others have reported varying degrees of relief.

There is no magic potion when it comes to digestive ailments which can be very difficult to diagnose and treat, but for the people suffering from these conditions, any improvement is welcomed. In some cases, patients have spent years of their lives suffering. Taking probiotics has in at least one person’s case “Given me my life back”.

Your grandmother (or, great-grandmother, depending upon your age) always knew better.  Over the past 35 years, or so, with the ‘Big Food’ companies serving up the American industrialized diet -we, as a society have all suffered as we lost sight of the diet steeped in tradition that began fading away in the beginning of the 20th Century.  Our diet, especially over the past 35 years has consisted of too much highly processed food-like substances and not nearly as much fresh fruit and vegetables, as an example.

Another big reason doctors have recently recognized probiotics is because stress and poor diet do their part in causing digestive problems as we get older. The best way to go about restoring your digestive health as we age is to supplement our diets with a quality probiotic.

While some are attempting to repair damage caused by bad diet, others are in a preventive mode of thinking.  With use of a good whole food multi containing probiotics, many digestive ailments and the common complications associated with them may never be an issue.

As time wears on, it is very likely that probiotics will be something we hear more and more about – especially as the medical community continues to recognize their benefits and recommend their use for a growing list of conditions.   Buy probiotics and use them -see for yourself.
