Well, it’s started – public panic over swine flu and the demand for antivirals like Tamiflu, which aren’t actually a cure, just something to lessen the symptoms.

However, every medical practitioner will tell you there’s no man made medication, which doesn’t have side effects.

I don’t want to say I told you so, but according to research carried out on ferrets, (which are affected by ‘flu in the same way as humans), the A(H1N1) affects the lungs and stomach.

All the more reason to take active probiotics to build up your immune system, wouldn’t you say?

After all 85% of your immunity is found in your gut and it’s been suggested 90% of all human illnesses can be traced back there!

Earlier this week, I listened to a fascinating webinar about bacteria. It was pointed out if bacteria became extinct, our whole ecosystem would collapse.

No-one can live without bacteria. They produce the enzymes responsible for your metabolism. In the webinar it said ONE cell needs 100,000 enzymes to function properly, and as they aren’t alive and cannot reproduce themselves, you have to replace them on a daily basis.

In the right conditions, one single LIVE bacteria can multiply to about 17 million in 8 hours, which is why you need to take LIVE active probiotic bacteria every day.
Notice, I said LIVE bacteria. It’s no good taking the probiotic formulas, which are dead, and the way to determine if they are any good is if you can on ferment with them.

If you aren’t already convinced about the importance of probiotics, (good friendly bacteria), one FACT you might be interested to know is Fat people have far less good bacteria in their gut than slim people! Fat and excess water are the body’s way of protecting you from toxins.

So now you know you can go out and get your LIVE probiotic bacteria, but make sure you get some grown on fruit and vegetables, not on faeces!

Yuk!!

Take care
