(Medical-NewsWire.com, August 03, 2014 ) Chicago, Illinois -- In their latest blog post MightySupp Vitamin and Mineral Supplements explain the many benefits of one of the main ingredients of their probiotic supplement, Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14.
This strain of lactic acid probiotic is found naturally in the human body as well as in many foods, such as fermented milk drinks, yoghurt, sauerkraut, sour cream and some cheeses. Some brands of juices and energy bars also add it as an ingredient.
‘Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 serves several important functions in the human body,' MightySupp CEO Aaron Parker said. ‘And due to many factors, such as unhealthy lifestyle habits and the stress of modern living, many people don't have enough natural probiotics in their system for good health, so they need supplementation. So we make sure our supplements contain only quality products, which include optimal levels of Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14.'
Most probiotics live in the intestinal tract, where they aid digestion as well as the immune system by helping to fight disease. One of the most functional qualities of Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 is that it's able to withstand high levels of stomach acid and bile salts in the small intestine, which destroy many other strains of probiotics.
Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 has also shown that it can adhere well to the wall of the intestine, which prolongs its time there and therefore its efficiency. This also means it can prevent harmful bacteria from colonizing the intestine. Probiotics help to fight off harmful bacteria in a variety of ways, from crowding them out and starving them of nutrition to producing the antibody immunoglobulin A.
Different strains of probiotics are good at different methods of protection, which is why it's essential that probiotic supplements contain a variety of strains. Studies have shown that Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 excels at repelling Salmonella typhimurium (food poisoning bacteria) and Staphylococcus aureus (which causes many Staph infections).
Another benefit of Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 is its ability to inhibit high levels of oxalic acid. An accumulation of oxalic acid in the body can result in many serious kidney conditions, such as hyperoxaluria, kidney stones and renal failure as well as cardiomyopathy (chronic heart disease). Furthermore, it's also been shown that Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 helps to correct the imbalance of probiotics caused by taking antibiotics and this is especially beneficial in cases of diarrhea caused by antibiotics.
Mr Parker recommends gaining the maximum benefit from Lactobacillus Acidophilus La-14 by taking a daily probiotic supplement as well as eating foods rich in this probiotic as often as possible. ‘Your supplement should contain a good mix of the two main strains of probiotics - Lactobacillus, which should include the Acidophilus La-14 strain, and Bifidobacteria. If you're taking probiotics to maintain good health, each dose should contain 5 to 15 billion CFU (colony forming units). If you have a medical condition, your supplement needs to have 20 to 50 billion CFU to begin with, then you can reduce the levels as your condition improves.'
Mr Parker said that probiotic supplements should never replace medication and that people should always check with their doctor or health professional that the supplements will not react negatively with their medication.
