Probiotics for All Kinds of Infections
It has become clear that sometimes you can’t just kill an infection so in those cases we have to fortify the gut and immune system to help as well.
Probiotics are the first line of defense in the gut and there is a surprising amount of research on probiotic good bacteria and yeast against infections of bacteria, candida, and parasitic amoebas and worms. Despite this, it is rarely fully considered by health seekers and practitioners.
Many people have given up probiotics because they don’t work or make one feel worse.
This is a likely result of you are just guessing or trying to match remedies with solutions instead of using some kind of individualized energetic testing for what the body needs.
You don’t need a complete diagnosis of every pathogens (impossible) and even if you had one that does not mean you can derive solution from the existing research.
Energetic testing goes right to what will work—if you have a solution in your set of options.
Here is some general research and the reasons why probiotics could work better that just killing with pharmaceuticals, herbs, etc.
The two overview points are:
- Probiotics fight infection in multifacted fronts.
- Probiotics stay and grow to occupy the space and grow for continuous additional benefits.
- Change to healthy pH environment to acids that kill pathogens
- Form protective biofilms.
- Work to regenerate mucin of gut lining
- Create nutrients for the entire body, immune system and cells of intestines
- Signal to the white blood cells of the immune systems where to attack
Here are some quotes from two research articles.
The Genus Enterococcus: Between Probiotic Potential and Safety Concerns—An Update
This explains some of the ways they work.
“The functional requirements of probiotics include:
- tolerance to human gastric juice and bile,
- adherence to epithelial surfaces,
- persistence in the human gastrointestinal tract (GIT),
- immune stimulation,
- antagonistic activity toward intestinal pathogens (such as Helicobacter pylori, Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, and Clostridium difficile),
- and the capacity to stabilize and modulate the intestinal microbiota.”
“Bacteriocin production is now one of the desirable traits in the selection of a probiotic strain. Strains belonging to the genus Enterococcus produce a wide variety of bacteriocins often called enterocins….
They have been widely studied, mainly because they are active against Gram-positive foodborne pathogens, such as L. monocytogenes. E. faecium and E. faecalis are the main producers of enterocins and to a lesser extent E. mundtii, E. avium, E. hirae, and E. durans. “
BTW, I don’t know of any enterococcous supplements. Post some if you know.
Probiotics for the Control of Helminth Zoonosis Journal of Veterinary Medicine:
“The efficacy of probiotics strains, mainly bacteria in the genera Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, and Bifidobacterium, has been largely evaluated mainly for the control of schistosomiasis, trichinellosis, and toxocariasis….Moreover, the increasing emergence of anthelmintic drug resistance constitutes failures of most disease control strategies, alarming for a quest to new alternative control approaches. Consequently, the use of beneficial microorganisms, probiotics, is becoming interesting for its prophylactic or therapeutic application against several diseases including helminths. Recent studies on probiotics against parasites and the interactions between bacteria, parasites, and the immune system in the gut draw much attention.
However, the effects of these beneficial microorganisms in helminth infections remain largely unexplored.
..…production of antimicrobial substances, modulation of the mucosal immune system, alteration of the intestinal microflora, and enhancement of enzymatic activity. The primary mode of action of probiotics against parasites might be by enhancing the intestinal barrier and modulation of the microflora in the gut. They may augment the number of beneficial microorganisms, like lacto-bacilli and bifidobacteria, which then inhibit growth of harmful pathogens by competing for attachment site in the intestinal mucosa…..The second proposed mechanism may involve secretion of antimicrobial substances, like bacteriocins, and organic acids such as lactic, acetic, and butyric acid, mainly secreted by Lactobacillus species and may have a larvicidal effect on parasites.”
Eat to energize, detoxify & immunize.
