Let’s talk about why you would even need a probiotic: Do you have issues with your digestion; such as burping, heartburn, lower bowel gas, loose stool, constipation, or bloating? If you have any of these problems on a continual basis, then something isn’t balanced. Another question to ask yourself is, have you taken many rounds of antibiotics in the past or are you about to begin taking antibiotics? If yes, then this is where you might find adding in a probiotic useful.
Other bells and whistles include that these probiotics are enteric coated -a water based coating- that helps get these beneficial bacteria through your stomach acid to your intestines where they can work their magic. This probiotic also includes FOS, which stands for fructooligosaccharides; this is a fancy name for a naturally occurring fibre that helps the probiotics colonize that much better.
Ultimate Flora Critical Care is easy to take, just one capsule a day and that’s it. In addition to all the benefits I’ve mentioned, you’ll also be helping your body to produce vitamins, digest food, and may actually prevent future problems.
Overall, probiotics are one way to help balance out your body and can make a world of difference for some people, but we have to remember that each individual is different and there may be a more suitable probiotic for your particular needs. I’ve had clients who thought these particular probiotics were too strong by experiencing loose stool or a slight rash; and others who have found success taking more than the recommended dose to remedy their constipation. Everyone is different. Proper food selection, hormonal balance, and lifestyle choices are just as important as anything else and this is why sitting down with a health practitioner can be pivotal in getting a protocol that works specifically for your unique needs.
Please note, these probiotics are not recommended in anyone with an immune compromised condition.
