take your probiotics!

Probiotics are healthy bacteria that help maintain the delicate balance of bacteria in your digestive tract. They improve digestion & nutrient absorption, support immunity by scavenging free radicals, reduce gas & bloat, and promote regular bowel movements. You can get some probiotics from yogurt and other fermented foods like sauerkraut, kim chee and kefir. I personally recommend that people take a probiotic supplement every day first thing in the morning before breakfast. An excellent (and easy to find) brand is Enzymatic Therapy's enteric-coated acidophilus pearls, which unlike other brands, make it through the stomach's acidic environment and land in the intestines, where you need it. Probiotics are the supplement of choice for anyone who needs a little boost to their digestive system. I personally take them every morning as a means of maintaining my digestive health.
