Nebraska Cultures, the leader in scientific research in this field, says many programs are missing the mark when it comes to responsible, effective weight loss. A healthy digestive system increases energy and improves metabolism - both critical factors in an effective weight loss program. Making sure your digestive system is functioning properly is key to maintaining your ideal body weight and keeping off the pounds you worked so hard to lose.

Often overlooked, but always obvious, are the conditions of being bloated and gaseous. A sure sign that your digestive system is not properly tuned.  People often complain that as they diet and exercise they somehow do not seem to be reducing the bulge in the stomach area. Yeast overgrowth may be a major factor in promoting mid-section weight gain, in addition to zapping energy from the body.  Controlling yeast overgrowth by balancing the good bacteria in your body is essential to maintaining overall health AND weight.

We all know that antibiotics kill off the good bacteria as well as the bad bacteria, and may reach for our probiotic supplements after taking antibiotics. What we don’t consider is that we consume antibiotics daily, without a doctor’s prescription, in the foods we eat and drink. Antibiotics are routinely used as supplements in animal feed or in the treatment of sick livestock. Consequently, humans who eat these types of animal products (milk!) may be destroying their beneficial bacteria and increasing yeast growth without their knowledge. This directly correlates to unwanted weight gain and weight management.

Aside from weight loss, which is what many of us are thinking about now before swim suit season, probiotics are beneficial in so many ways. Numerous research studies have discovered a variety of nutritional and therapeutic properties attributed to the use of probiotics.

These are just a few:
Assist in Digestion, Produce natural antibiotic-like agents, inhibit food pathogens, inhibit tumors and carcinogens, fight yeast infections, aids liver function and detoxification, produces Vitamin B and folic acid, prevents dermatological problems, helps prevent and control diarrhea, and improves general G.I. health to help prevent disorders. WOW.
