When you take antibiotics, you are killing all the bad bacteria in the gut. This is good. BUT....you are also killing all the good bacteria in the gut, as well. That is B-A-D bad. When the good bacteria is gone, it allows for multiple things, including Candida Yeast to overgrow. When Candida Yeast, which is naturally occurring in our bodies, turns into an overgrowth situation, your body will start to fall apart. I don't have references right now, but when I was researching it years ago, I read that they think that 85% of the population has Candida Overgrowth. It causes every symptom in the book: stomach pain, cramping, swelling, weight gain, migraines, foggy brain, itching, yeast infections, food sensitivities, skin issues, joint pain....I kid you not. EVERYTHING. I know this because when I went on the Candida Diet, I had all of those symptoms and more that disappeared when I killed off the yeast. We are raising kids on antibiotics. It only makes sense that all the good bacteria is gone!
Probiotics help to keep the good bacteria in the gut. All probiotics don't work. I ask every doctor and health professional their opinions. All doctors will tell you to get the ones in the grocery store that have had studies to prove they work. A naturopath or someone else will tell you a little more.
1-ALWAYS get a probiotic that is found in the refrigerated section. Probiotics are live cultures and keeping them cool keeps them alive for longer.
2-ALWAYS get a probiotic that has the most billions of cultures in them.
3-ALWAYS get a probiotic that has the most variety of cultures in them.
Understanding all of that, I have lots of people ask me what I use. I have found that I really like the GARDEN OF LIFE brand of probiotics. I have found them at our local grocery store, HEB and at any nutrition store. Take note that it has 100 Billion CFUs....I take as much as I can get. Most are around 20 Billion. And there is a list of all the different cultures included. When I take this supplement I feel a difference. If I have had to take antibiotics, what would usually cause severe stomach pain and issues, never happens when I am on my daily probiotics. They also have a great one for KIDS.
