L. Salivarius (probiotic) 100 v-caps: $32.00 Colonies of "friendly" bacteria must live in the colon for it to function properly. Without these beneficial bacteria, we are more susceptible to harmful yeasts, intestinal toxemia, dangerous bacteria, viruses, and a wide spectrum of other problems.

Why? Because without the good bacteria to eat up the toxic waste from food that has not been completely digested and eliminated, the inner walls of the colon can become encrusted with layers of putrefying wastes.

As it builds up over the course of decades, this layered waste can become thick and hard, forming a barricade that prevents vital nutrients from passing through the walls and being fully absorbed by the organs and systems that need these nutrients to do their jobs. In addition, just as in a garbage dump where vermin and disease are drawn by decaying waste, your colon becomes a breeding ground for numerous harmful bacteria, yeasts, viruses, and more.

The added toxins produced by these unwelcome invaders can spread throughout your body, literally poisoning you. Your "starved" and poisoned organs and systems then become stressed and eventually weaken, fail to function properly, and can break down. This is why so many researchers now believe that "death begins in the colon."

Unfortunately, the friendly bacteria that should populate our colons and prevent this sort of scenario are constantly under attack by an increasingly diverse array of enemies. These include the all-too-common enemies of chlorinated water, the antibiotics we take for illness and those we ingest in the meat and pasteurized dairy products we consume, alcoholic beverages, some chemicals, as well as radiation and chemotherapy.

These "friendly" bacteria used to be passed naturally from mother to infant. Unfortunately, over the past half-century, in our haste to kill all bacteria, we have also killed the good with the bad. And unless we have consciously reintroduced good bacteria into our intestinal tracts, most of us no longer have these good bacteria working for us.

L. Salivarius works to restore the proper balance of bacteria in your intestines, attacking many of the unfriendly bacteria while promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria. It is a fast-working bowel cleanser.
