Who Else Is Lying To Us About The Benefits Of Probiotics?
Is there a quick way to solve health problems using probiotic pills? Most think all probiotics work, but are there reasons why your probiotic pills fail?
The effectiveness of probiotics depends more on choosing the right type of probiotic pill. There are definitely numerous reasons why you might want to begin taking probiotics if you have digestive issues or are looking to improve your gut health, but as much as the media touts their benefits, there are even some negatives (albeit only a few) as to why you might not want to begin taking them or incorporating them into your wellness regimen.

If you've followed this blog for a while, you know that I strongly believe there is a connection our microbiome has in fighting seasonal and chronic allergies. Now, it's important to note that food allergies have ballooned by over 45% in kids since the mid-nineties. There are numerous theories, and I have tried to hypothesize why. The one gaining the foremost traction stems from the drastic modified food choices kids face today. This change (and not for the better) in modified feeding habits has altered the microbiome composition of a majority of teens. 
Antibiotics Don't Work On Viruses
A large reason why I enjoy and have a passion for gut health is because for many, it is a new frontier to look at how to become healthy. Looking at your digestion and microbiome is something "out-of-the-ordinary" and not your typical, "eat broccoli, exercise, get sleep" mantra that you see all over social media. This different approach compelled me to talk about antibiotics. ⠀
Let's start out by saying you're a mayor of a small town, enjoying life and everything is going great. Then let's pretend there are a rash of burglaries at some resident's homes. How would you react and what would you do as mayor? The first step would be get the police to investigate and talk to neighbors that might have seen something, the key word being "investigate".

Digestive Enzymes Help You Lose Weight
What are probiotics and what are enzymes and why are they important for you? Are there any side effects of taking digestive enzymes? Is there a way you can tell if you need digestive enzymes?
If you picture the way that you eat in your digestive system, picture it just as one long tube. On the inside of that tube are these little like toothbrush type bristles that line all of inside of the tube. Now, those are the probiotics and as you eat foods, what happens is the food travels down that tube and those little villi, those probiotics, secrete enzymes which, then, in turn, helps to break down the food so that you can use the vitamins and minerals and nutrients from those foods.
