Many of us automatically think "bad" when we think of "bacteria." After all, if bacteria form a parasitic association with other
organisms, they are classed as pathogens. Pathogenic bacteria are a major cause of human disease and infections. Yet
probiotics such as acidophilus are considered beneficial and are sometimes referred to as "friendly" bacteria. Some of the
ways they are thought to promote health include suppressing the growth of potentially harmful bacteria, improving immune
function and enhancing the protective barrier of the digestive tract.
The digestive tract is host to about 400 different kinds of bacteria and yeasts. Among these, Lactobacillus acidophilus B.
bifidum, and B. longum and other members of the Lactobacillus family are especially important to your health. These strains
of bacteria are considered "pro-biotic" bacteria since they help maintain intestinal health, and serves as a natural antibiotic
against potentially harmful organisms.
Aerobic Life's Acidophilus Complex uses unique human strains selected specifically to adapt to the human intestinal
tract. Lactobacillus bacteria predominantly colonize the upper to lower part of the small intestine, while B. bifidum and
B.longum colonize primarily the lower part of the small intestine to the large intestine. Combining these strains may help
suppress harmful bacteria and the substances they produce along the entire intestinal tract. Acidophilus Complex is ideal for
those who have been exposed to antibiotics and would like to restore their intestinal flora. Acidophilus is also great for those
who would simply like to assure a surplus of beneficial bacteria in their intestinal tract.
