Why should you take an Acidophilus probiotic?

The body is an amazing complex organism. It is quite remarkable that it remains in balance most of the time. Whenever illness does strike, or you are placed on an antibiotic, the body is said to be out of balance.

For a number of reasons, especially when you are placed on an antibiotic, the normal flora of the body is disturbed. The beneficial as well as the harmful bacteria are destroyed. To replace the good bacteria, you need to take a probiotic.

We offer a product called Jarro-Dophilus EPS from Jarrow Formulas. This product contains 4.4 billion organisms per capsule containing 8 different species of beneficial flora. These strains of good bacteria assist your body in balancing its intestinal flora and immune system. The caps are enteric coated so none of the beneficial bacteria are destroyed by stomach acid. It is recommended that you take one or 2 capsules per day on an empty stomach.
