Guide To Probiotics For IBS


By Patty Goff


The intestinal colonization by biotics is temporary and ends a few days after cessation of their employment. The benefits described in the various studies are not always to be understood as general effects of probiotics for IBS. Every effect is attributable only to the single strain or individual strains tested in that regard. If a supplement with probiotics has yielded positive results in a study of a particular benefit.

Containing these microorganisms and therefore fresh pro-biotics are yogurt, other fermented milk products, buttermilk and other. One of the benefits of probiotic foods is improving balance. They help to improve symptoms and problems such as fatigue, trouble defenses, breast feeding and strengthening the immune system.

Probiotic bacteria survive passage through the gastrointestinal tract and are implanted in colon or small intestine and help to improve the health of dairy products. Pro-biotics affect less people with impaired lactose. Repeated consumption probiotic yogurt in relatively large amounts has a therapeutic effect against Helicobacteria.

But the two enzymes present in such products do not play a beneficial role in human organisms because they die as soon as they come into contact with the gastric juices. According to FAO / WHO guidelines, good bacteria are defined only those microorganisms that can demonstrate, when ingested in adequate amounts, exert beneficial functions in body.

No type of product containing pro-biotics has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for medical indications. A 2010 study suggests that any positive effects of probiotic therapy in the prevention of secondary infections, a common complication of antibiotic therapy, may result from the fact that the ingestion of foods containing good bacteria helps to keep the immune system called, first, that the helps to counteract the negative effects of the disease and the intake of antibiotics.

It has been speculated that antibiotics can "mitigate" the immune system, while probiotics him back to a state of alert, more ready to react quickly to new infections. Pro biotics are also useful in reducing the effects of infectious diarrhea in children, especially in Western countries where rotavirus infection is the main cause, and shorten the duration of diarrhea for a few hours or an entire day can be significant.

A probiotic strain widely studied in this context is that the Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG was able to reduce the duration of infectious diarrhea supported by rotavirus, common pathogen in children and an important cause of hospitalization. The guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics 2010, as in 2008 the guidelines (Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition) indicate that for the treatment of acute diarrhea the beneficial effect is strain-dependent and that Lactobacillus GG is to date the most effective probiotic, which already if administered at onset of acute diarrhea, is able to reduce the duration of about 1 day.

A probiotic microorganism can you say if it meets the following requirements: is safe for use in humans: a useful reference in this sense can be a list of bacterial species presumptively classified as safe by EFSA (QPS). In any case, the probiotic micro-organisms should not be carriers of antibiotic-resistance acquired and / or transmissible. It should be active and vital in the intestine in sufficient quantity to justify the possible beneficial effects observed in studies of effectiveness. Be able to persist and multiply in human gut. Be able to confer a physiological benefit demonstrated according to the criteria reported in FAO or WHO documents on evaluation of pro-biotics for food use.
