Hello, my name is Lizzy!
Certified Microbiome Specialist, Nutrition Advisor, and 'Specialised' High Potency Yoghurt Producer
As someone who specialises in IBS and SIBO I know the importance of a healthy gut, caring for your very own personal ecosystem can have a profound impact on your overall well-being. Here are the main reasons to consume probiotics, each accompanied by one or more bacteria species that you can easily ferment into thick and creamy yoghurt that is bursting with beneficial flora!
Boosts Immune System
Probiotics can enhance the body's immune response, helping to fend off infections and illnesses. L.rhamnosus, L.casei shirota and L.reuteri are particularly effective in boosting immunity.
Improves Mental Health including Clarity and Sleep
Probiotics can influence the gut-brain axis, potentially enhancing cognitive functions and mood stability by reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Beneficial strains include L.casei shirota and L.reuteri.
Supports Heart Health
Probiotics can help reduce high triglyceride levels and lower blood pressure, contributing to better cardiovascular health. L.plantarum is known for its heart health benefits.
Reduces Inflammation
Probiotics have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce chronic inflammation, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis or Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and linked to various other health conditions. L.rhamnosus, L.plantarum and Bacillus coagulans are effective in reducing inflammation.
Enhances Skin Health
Consuming probiotics can improve skin conditions such as eczema and acne by balancing the skin's microbiome, and increases the natural production of collagen helping to reduce wrinkles. L.reuteri, L.plantarum and L.rhamnosus are known for their beneficial properties for skin.
Stubborn Fat Loss
Some probiotics can help to reduce appetite and regulate fat mass, making weight management easier. L.gasseri, L.reuteri and L.plantarum are known for their role in supporting weight management.
Reduces Food Intolerances and SIBO
Probiotics can also reside in the Small Intestines helping to reduce food intolerances, making it easier to digest certain foods. Strains such as L. gasseri, L.reuteri and Bacillus coagulans are beneficial and also produce natural antibiotics suppressing pathogenic species.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Probiotics can help maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the digestive system reducing symptoms of bloating and regulating bowel movements aiding constipation and diarrhoea. L.plantarum, L.rhamnosus and B.infantis are useful probiotics for this condition.
Diabetes and Blood Sugar Control
For those diagnosed as pre/diabetic, probiotics can help maintain the natural balance of blood glucose, reducing the risk of insulin highs and lows. L.plantarum has been recognised as the most beneficial probiotic for this metabolic condition.
Supports Bone Health & Muscular Strength
Probiotics can improve calcium absorption, which is vital for maintaining strong bones, and boosts the natural production of the youthful hormone Oxytocin. The probiotics L.reuteri, B.subtilis and Bacillus Coagulans are both known for their benefits in supporting bone and muscular health.
Expectant Mothers
A mother can transfer beneficial bacteria to the baby through breast milk, this can help to break down the complex sugars aiding in better digestion for the baby, it can support the development of the baby's immune system, helping to protect against infections and allergies. Research indicates that B.infantis is highly effective and may also alleviate colic symptoms in infants.
