The balance of the microbes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is greatly affected by diet, antibiotics (which unfortunately kills good microbes also), disease and aging. Probiotic products can therefore provide special benefit to aging consumers and to people faced with challenging life situations such as stress, antibiotic treatment, or travel.

Regular consumption of probiotics, like Lactobacillus (Acidophilus,Casei) and Bifido bacteria, help keep the balance. Lactobacillus uses many of the foodstuffs, making it harder for harmful bacteria to survive. In the process they also produce acids that suppress the growth of harmful bacteria. Bifido bacteria do much of the same but play a greater role further down the tract, in the colon. Another way to stimulate the beneficial bacteria is the intake of dietary fibers (prebiotics); non-digestible food ingredients beneficial microbes thrive on.
Take care of yourself; daily or frequent consumption of our Drinkable Yogurt will provide you with both pro- and prebiotics and stimulate an optimal balance in your GI tract, all with a sugar level lower than almost any yogurt on the shelfs.
