Super Immunity - Recolonize the Good Bacteria in Your Gut

Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S., a guest on The Debra Ray Show, said that 70% of the antibiotics used in this country are fed to animals. These antibiotics are in the beef, dairy, lamb, pork, and poultry products you eat, unless you buy organic. The antibiotics kill both bad and good bacteria. The ratio of 85% good bacteria to 15% bad bacteria in your gut is optimum for good health. 75% of your immune receptor sites are located in the gut. Ann Louise recommends Probiotics 12 Plus, because it's the only probiotic that contains the TH 10 strain of bacteria. This new bacterial strain is proven to destroy resistant pathogens. TH 10 will kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureas (MRSA), which is responsible for many rapidly spreading infections occurring now in hospitals. Probiotics 12 Plus rebalances the GI tract which avoids digestive problems & strengthens the immune system. The company claims that, based on research, 80% of all other probiotics are no longer alive by the time they reach the consumer. Their painstaking manufacturing methods result in a product that has a guaranteed shelf life of three years after shipment. Ann Louise recommends taking a "loading dose" of 5 capsules when awakened in the morning & 5 capsules at bedtime, until the first box is used up. Then you should continue to take just 1 capsule at bedtime. If you are scheduled for a plane trip, she recommends taking the "loading dose" the day before, the day of, and the day after your plane trip. She also recommends eating fermented foods (such as sauerkraut, pickles, etc.), as part of some meals, as these help the good bacteria. Research suggests that Probiotics 12 Plus may be useful in treating IBS, colitis, Crohn's disease, spastic colon, constipation, diarrhea, diverticulitis, acid reflux, heartburn, peptic ulcers, asthma, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, Epstein-Bar virus, acne, psoriasis, eczema, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, HIV/AIDS, and hepatitis B & C.
