Life Flora
These friendly intestinal bacteria also aid the digestive process, reducing the need for enzymes and helping to check the overgrowth of harmful bacteria that can generate toxins. These beneficial bacteria (also called probiotics) are thought to have several presumably beneficial effects on immune function by increasing the number of IgA-producing plasma cells and helping to maintain healthy immune cell function.
When beneficial intestinal bacteria are destroyed, digestive problems, poor absorption of food and nutrients, and generation of toxins by harmful intestinal bacteria may occur. The bacteria contained in Life Flora™ can help recolonize and balance the GI tract with beneficial bacteria, helping to end digestive problems and hinder the growth of harmful, toxic bacteria (82-118).
