Probiotics, valuable allies for boosting our immune defences !
Intestinal flora harbour thousands of different kinds of bacteria. The cells of the immune system are normally responsible for sorting the good bacteria from the bad. But sometimes our immune system can become weak.
Probiotics, for prevention before debility
What if you could learn to listen to your body ? Doing this would in fact reveal some early warning signs : do you feel tired, have a runny nose or a headache... ? Your body is probably susceptible. You therefore need to take care ! Likewise, if your child is returning to nursery or school, he/she risks exposure to germs and can exhibit signs of fatigue. In these two cases, the use of probiotics can prove beneficial : by strengthening the natural “barrier effect” of intestinal flora, probiotics help to maintain good health.
Probiotics, for strengthening immune defences
If you are already feeling under the weather, it’s not too late to take probiotics as these can help you to recover more quickly. It is worth noting that probiotics stimulate the body’s immune defences : as your body becomes more resistant, it can then regain its equilibrium more rapidly ! What’s more, probiotics enhance the absorption of vitamins and minerals.
Probiotics, for better tolerance of antibiotic treatmen
Are you taking antibiotics ? In 5% to 30% of cases, undesirable effects are experienced (irregular bowel function..). As a complement to antibiotic treatment, you can also take probiotics to protect your intestinal flora and protect yourself against these disorders.
Probiotics, for restoring the balance of flora after a course of medication
By restoring the balance in intestinal flora, probiotics can also speed up recovery once a flu vaccine or a course of medication has been administered.
