Use Acidophilus a Bacteria to Prevent Constipation

That sentence alone could turn a few heads. Whoever heard of using bacteria to cure and prevent a disorder? Well, apparently quite a number of people already have. The again, Acidophilus is known to be the "friendly bacteria."

So just what is Acidophilus and how can it prevent constipation?

Acidophilus is a natural occurring bacteria in the human body that produces lactic acid, which in turn helps in braking down food and getting the proper nutrients needed by the body.

The decrease in number of the population of Acidophilus in the body is one of the main causes of several digestive disorders. Factors that reduce the number of Acidophilus in the body are antibiotics, alcohol, improper diet, old age, drugs, smoking and stress.

Aside from preventing constipation from occurring, Acidophilus also aids in reducing the chances of other disorders from happening. This includes; prevention of diarrhea, lowering blood cholesterol, enhancing the nutrients absorption, eliminates halitosis, reduces the chances of acne, prevents growth of some harmful bacteria, lessens symptoms of candidasis and vaginal yeast infection and recent studies have shown that it can help in preventing growth of carcinogens.

When food is digested well, the body can get the proper nutrients from them, plus, the chemical reaction of the body to the break down of the food eaten goes smoothly, reducing the chances for constipation.

Acidophilus aids in the digestion of food. That is why it is necessary that we have sufficient amount of Acidophilus bacteria to help us feel better.

I started it as a regimen when I had a severe bout with stomach flu(couldn`t stop) follwed by a prescription for Oxycodone for a separated shoulder and it bound me up to the point my kidneys hurt more than my shoulder. After 3 days of probiotics I was back to normal. Now I take it 3 times a week.

I take one per day most days I think it helps clear stomach bloat and keeps the pipes clean

Isn't there a decent amount of this in the usual yogurt? Or is there not enough to make much of a difference and supplementation be needed?

There is definitely not enough in Yogurt to reap all the benefits from Acidophilus. Personally, I like the enteric coated pills because they can survive in stomach acid exposure way longer than most other brands will. I use Acidophilus Pearls which could be found at most stores: Wal-Mart, CVS, Walgreen's, etc.

I ate Activia yogurt last week and I pooped like 3X a day for a few days after that.

80% of the immune system is in the GI tract, FYI, people underestimate how important the health of their GI tract is.
