Probiotics - the good bacteria
When you hear about bacteria, it may at first sound worrying or even off‑putting. Bacteria do often have a bad reputation, and that is understandable. However, there are some beneficial bacteria that work in your favour and for your health — probiotics! Probiotics, often described as trusted allies of our gut and immune system, have gained increasing importance in recent years as science has recognised their potential. Whether they are in the digestive tract, the gut, the vagina or the mouth — probiotics play a significant role in our body.
What are probiotics and what are they used for
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines probiotics as "live microorganisms that, when consumed in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host". These microorganisms naturally occur in the gut, the mouth and the vagina. These bacteria play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the gut flora, regulating the immune system, promoting healthy digestion and much more. Probiotics help the body defend against potential illnesses and infections. Specifically, these microorganisms form a protective barrier against harmful bacteria that try to settle in the body and trigger disorders such as diarrhoea, constipation, inflammation and other illnesses. Therefore they play an indispensable role in the immune system as a whole. Probiotics naturally occur in our bodies, and if there is a deficiency they can be supplemented by taking probiotic dietary supplements in powder or capsule form. In addition, probiotics are also present in certain foods, including: yoghurt, kefir, pickled gherkins, certain types of cheese
