Our society has developed into an antibiotic culture so intent on destroying bacteria — we often expect a prescription to cure even a minor infection — that we’ve eradicated much of the beneficial bacteria in our bodies along with the harmful strains.
Our gastrointestinal tract contains hundreds of different species of beneficial bacteria (intestinal flora). To provide a healthy environment, our body requires proper amounts of these friendly bacteria. Probiotics are the key to helping our body maintain proper levels of friendly bacteria because they colonize the intestinal tract and crowd out disease-causing bacteria, viruses, and yeasts.
Probiotics are living, direct-fed microbials that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestines. They come in two types: food (such as yogurt, kefir, or raw sauerkraut) and dietary supplements, such as Truehope GreenBAC.
Truehope GreenBAC is a rich blend of the 8 bacteria our digestive tract needs most. Each capsule contains billions of the following bacteria: Lactobacillus rhamnosus A & B, L. bulgaricus, Bifidobacterium longum, L. acidophilus,B. breve, L. casei, and Streptococcus thermophilus.
What sets our probiotic formula apart from others is our comprehensive collection of prebiotic ingredients to help the bacteria thrive.
Our prebiotic ingredients include alfalfa leaves, apple fiber, lecithin, apple pectin, barley grass, spirulina, wheat grass, chlorella, acerola berries, carrot, bee pollen, fennel seed, green tea extract, lacto-bifidus, licorice extract, peppermint leaves, royal jelly, spinach, amylase, bromelian, papain, milk thistle seed extract, eleuthero root extract, bilberry fruit extract, broccoli, ginkgo leaf extract, ginger root, and grape seed extract.
Strong evidence shows that probiotics help lactose intolerance and diarrhea, decrease the risk of colon cancer, ease symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome, lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels, and boost the immune system, and improve mental health.
