Probiotics Make For a Happy Gut and Improve Health

Nourishing Your Gut Bacteria Is Critical for Health and Mental Well-Being

March 13, 2016

For the CHers who have not stayed in tune with my posts on the need for taking a probiotic if you've been prescribed an antibiotic... because antibiotics kill off the ecosystem of friendly colonies of biota living in our GI tract called the microbiome, the following may be of interest.

To give you an idea on the state of medical science on the use of probiotics and health of the microbiome...  There are 728 studies registered in clinicaltrials.gov listing probiotics as the intervention.  438 of these studies are listed as complete. The first study of this type was registered in 2004.  There have been 109 such studies registered in 2016 alone.

Regarding the microbiome...  there are 357 studies registered in cinicaltrials.gov containing the term microbiome.  The first of these studies was registered in 2007...  143 of these studies were registered in 2016.

What does all this mean?  For starters, unless your PCP or neurologist completed residency within the last few years... or has stayed abreast of continued medical education (CME) courses in nutrition and the human immune system... they are going to be clueless when you ask about a probiotic to go with any prescribed antibiotic...

Remember... a happy gut is a healthy gut...  and a healthy gut supports the immune system...

Tale care,

V/R Batch

Thanks Batch,

I was on a week's course of antibiotics last week and had intended to get probiotics today when I was shopping....of course, I forgot.

Thanks for the reminder.

Peter.

Hi Peter,
this is one of the best probiotic on the island,

there's a discount code on the page for an extra 10% off until tuesday.

that crowd usually delivers next day and offers the best price for supplements in ireland, though there are other suppliers.
Once you have the bottle, keep it in the fridge.
It's the one i use.

All th best

Thanks Thierry,

I'll order them now. Presumably I should take the whole 30 over the coming month????

Hi Peter,
After an antibiotic, it's probably good to take 1 capsule twice/day until the bottle is finished.
I take 1/day all the time.

Take care

Yo Batch,

Thank you for this post! It's important information.

Previous illness and medical treatment for me resulted in a severely out of whack immune system. Allergies to foods, pollens, dust, multiple other environmentals...absolutely miserable... no one could help until I ran into a medical professional with direct experience with my situation... and an open mind (unfortunately rather rare). Her eyes twinkled and she immediately advised probiotics... even gave me a coupon!

Within 2-3 weeks I would estimate a 75% improvement...and it wasn't placebo. While I had heard of the gut/immune connection...I had no expectations. Now, my bottles of Zyrtec and Benadryl sometimes get misplaced.

As even further confirmation... I unintentionally did a "Batch challenge"...like when you stop the D3 to see what happens (Yikes!).   A couple weeks ago I found myself unexpectedly in a medical facility without the probiotics. Actually slipped my mind as I had other concerns...by the 4th day the doc noticed... "you seem congested" (sneezing and coughing too). And BAM..it hit me...no pros! When I told her she smiled and nodded...she gets it too. Went home the same day...FIRST thing I did was back on the pros!

Best

Jon
