Res-Q ProBiotic may help maintain a healthy bowel

A healthy balance of good bacteria is beneficial. In a clinical study on patients with Chrohn’s disease, Bifidobacteria numbers were significantly reduced in patients with Chrohn’s disease when compared with healthy controls. Res-Q ProBiotic provides probiotics from both the Bifidobacterium, and Lactobacillus genus to help replenish lost beneficial microscopic “life, the good bacteria, that has a long history of use for the health of the digestive tract. The good probiotics provide good life which helps compete for space with other types of bacteria, and provides a helpful intestinal barrier to help ward off harmful bacteria. Harmful bacteria that pass through this area provoke inflammation which is known to make bad intestinal situations worse. Clinical studies on Colitis show that that the type of bacteria can either provoke or not provoke inflammation. Many good types of bacteria (probiotics) were shown to help offset the bacteria related inflammation response. Maintaining a healthy balance of microbiotia can help balance the inflammatory response and help maintain good health and a healthy digestive system. Probiotics help maintain a favorable balance of microflora in the colon. Supplementing the diet with probiotics can change the intestinal balance of microflora. Maintaining a healthy microbiotia, a healthy balance of good bacteria, promotes intestinal health.
