Healthy MicroBiome and Detox for Health

Recently there has been considerable research relating to the critical importance of having a healthy microbiome. In simple terms, that means having healthy intestinal bacteria. This is not news to those of us in the natural health field, but more importance is now being attributed to probiotics, even in the allopathic medical field. One reason for this long overdue recognition, is outbreaks in hospitals and senior complexes of serious conditions such as Clostridium difficile infections (CDI). This disease been increasing in the last 30 years, primarily due to increased antibiotic and chemotherapy use.

The medical profession continues to use antibiotics to treat the condition, although as far back as 2006, I read a report by a Quebec hospital having decreased the incidence of CDI by 90% by merely giving all patients a probiotic supplement daily. I cannot recall the dollar savings, but obviously they were HUGE, as on average, a CDI infection increases a patient’s hospital stay by 6 days!  Unfortunately, but not surprisingly,  as probiotics do not offer the exorbitant mark-up and profit margin as drugs, there has been ‘inadequate studies’ to support the evidence to have this become mainstream.

Many research dollars are being spent on faecal transplant studies and trials for severe CDI with promising results. In my opinion, effective probiotics such as NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans is both more cost effective and considerably more appealing. We need to simplify, not complicate our health – KIS!

Those who DO care about their health are reaping the benefits.

Dr, Jay Vandenheuval, PhD, ND, presented an excellent webinar which covered the basics for 2 new products:  NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans, as well as Detox Basics (contact the author) , a 30 day kit for whole body cleansing. Should any reader wish to view this webinar, please contact the author, who will gladly share it. Health is about education, so you can take better control of your own health!

 

 

NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans…

is a probiotic strain designed to reset and quickly replenish the natural biome. It works very quickly for food poisoning, diarrhea, parasitic infestation, and toxic overload from any environmental source. Bacillus coagulans is  naturally heat-stable, so no refrigeration required. This is an excellent feature for travellers. It  readily withstands the stomach’s acidic environment, thereby providing better targeted support to the intestine and maintaining balance in the microbiome.

NutriBiome Bacillus coagulans  contains (MTCC 5856) 1 billion cfu (70 mg), as well as Inulin, a FOS (Fructooligosaccharide), which is a prebiotic to stimulate the growth of nonpathogenic intestinal microflora.

 

Detox Basics Kit…

combines Bacillus coagulans with several important formulas to provide a comprehensive, 30-day detox program. It has been designed to help support the function of digestive system, colon, liver, kidneys, all our organs involved in detoxification and filtration.

The liver aids in the digestive process by secreting bile that emulsifies fat, controls the metabolism of various nutrients, and serves as a reservoir for many of these same nutrients. The liver has over 500 critical functions in the body, and a healthy liver keeps life flowing smoothly.

The kidneys act as a filtration system, balancing our minerals and water to maintain homeostasis. A couple of signs of kidney overload can be sore back and arthritis.

The colon in a healthy state, provides nourishment via nutrient absorption, balances water and Potassium, helps production of Vitamins K, B12, thiamin and riboflavin, ensures adequate lymphatic flow to enhance immunity, as well as taking out the garbage! See The Most Important Organ.

The probiotics help establish the friendly, helpful bacteria, while the Detox helps remove the undesirable ones. This 2 part approach is very effective!

Detox Basics contains Berberine IR, (Berberis aristata) root, Milk Thistle, (Silybum marianum), Dandelion root (Taraxacum officinale)Choline bitartrate, as well as antioxidants Vitamin C, N-Acetyl-L-cysteine 55 mg and Beta-carotene 7000 IU, Curcuma longa (turmeric) rhizome

Success for Diarrhea, Parasites – Updated

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can’t believe how fast the Psyllium Hulls Combo worked – stopped my diarrhea in its tracks!

One dose last night and again this morning – and I have had only one BM so far today with lovely brown, formed lumps. Excuse the detail, but I’m so happy to have no loose stool for the first time in seven weeks!  And I trust the Para Pak (CA) / Para Cleanse (US with added Paw Paw Cell Reg), is socking it to those nasty microbes.

I’m reading a great book, btw, called “Gut – the inside story of our body’s most underrated organ” by Giulia Enders. Fascinating!  See *

Thanks again – I’ll let you know how I’m doing in a couple of weeks.

Author’s Comment: this person had intestinal problems with explosive diarrhea 4-6/day, bad cramping and low energy for  7 wks, since return from a European vacation. All signs of parasite infestation, although medical tests showed “all normal”.

She is also taking Probiotic 11 to re-establish correct bowel flora.

Please read HOW important the colon is.

 

If you are having any kind of bowel, intestinal or digestive problems, please contact us for personal assistance.

 

Update 3 weeks later:

I am happy to report that thanks to your advice, I have completely recovered from my intestinal illness – and did not have to take antibiotics! It’s possible I picked up a microbe here in Ontario rather than in Europe:

I completed the two weeks of Para-Pak treatment and took the Psyllium Hulls Combo whenever needed, per your instructions. Thanks again!

Q & A – Natural Treatment for diarrhea

QUESTION:

Hi Lorene, I took part in your annual herbal course last year – I attended with my good friend P.H. – it was a lot of fun and we learned so much from you!!  I think I remember you talking about something natural, I’m pretty sure it was an herb, that works really well for diarrhea, perhaps it was a Nature’s Sunshine product, but I can’t recall what it was. As my son is preparing for a trip to Cuba next week, taking with him herbs for digestion and parasites, I was hoping you might be able to help me come up with something he could take with him, just in case. I truly appreciate any help at all you can give me, Lorene!!

Warm regards, Lila

 

ANSWER:
Three natural products we always take when traveling are Slippery Elm, Psyllium Hulls Combination and Activated Charcoal. The Slippery Elm and Psyllium Hulls Combination will work for both diarrhea and constipation, depending on how much water you take them with. They are healing and soothing to the intestinal tract, and help absorb excess liquid.
The Activated Charcoal, which is only available in the US and Mexico, is highly absorbent, so has been used for ages to help with chemical poisoning (as in drug overdoses), severe diarrhea, food poisoning and for severe gas, cramping or  bloating.
Both Slippery Elm and Charcoal may also be used topically as a poultice to help pull the meanness out of insect and spider bites.
