I'd like to introduce you to the most important part of
your anatomy. And no, it's not that!
The most important part of your anatomy that determines
whether you'll enjoy vibrant health and energy into your
golden years, or be saddled with crippling pain and
disease, taking handfuls of daily medication is...
...Your gut...otherwise known as your intestinal tract.
In size alone it's amazing...
Your intestinal lining --opened up and spread out-- would
cover the same square area as a tennis court!
Here are a few more fascinating facts about those long,
snake-like tubes inside you:
===================================
Protection and nourishment from head to toe
===================================
1- When your gut is healthy and in working order, it
filters out and eliminates pathogens like infection-causing
bacteria, viruses, chemicals, carcinogens from food,
poisons and other toxins, and prevents them from being
absorbed into your bloodstream.
This is vital because if toxins are allowed to get into
your bloodstream (and into your lymph system), they can
literally go anywhere in your body. This can lead to
inflammation, pain and eventually diseases like cancer,
arthritis and fibromyalgia, to name a few.
2- At the same time, your intestinal lining absorbs vital
nutrients from your foods, puts them into the bloodstream
and helps distribute them all over your body where and when
you need them.
This is why your gut pretty much controls how you feel
from head to toe.
===================
The brain-gut connection
===================
Scientists have learned that there is a network of
chemical and electrical signals that pass continuously
between your brain and your gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Your brain sends signals and instructions to your gut, and
your gut carries out the instructions and answers the brain
about the "state of the body."
This pathway of exchange is called the "brain-gut axis"
and is the reason why many experts call the gut your second
brain.
==========================
The oh so important elimination game
==========================
Everyone knows that the colon (large intestine) is the
home stretch of digestion.
And along with the unusable remains of your food, the
colon is the main pathway for bad bacteria, medication
residues, parasites and toxins to leave your body. It's
vital that these toxic materials exit your body quickly--
otherwise they breed disease.
But the processed, low-fiber standard western diet that so
many people have, has caused slow or inefficient bowel
habits, resulting in wastes (stools) that become hardened
and crusted along the colon wall.
Some people retain waste build-up for months and even
years! I'm not joking.
Not only does this make you a perfect candidate for
polyps, colon cancer, diverticulosis (and diverticulitis)
and Crohn's disease, but your body's good bacteria doesn't
stand a chance against all the bad stuff swarming around in
there.
Plus the nutrients in your foods can't be absorbed as well
when there's "poop build-up" blocking up your colon wall.
Talk about a recipe for disaster.
With such an important role to play, it's essential to
keep your intestinal tract in top-notch shape and your
digestion running smoothly.
Super Shield's 13 research-grade probiotic strains will
help keep your digestion running efficiently and beef up
your population of beneficial bacteria.
Here are just a few highlights of Super Shield's
powerhouse formula:
Bifidobacteria Lactis BB-12
===================
BB-12 is widely used in clinical studies because it has
been shown to have the highest adhesion to human mucus of
all Bifidobacteria tested.
Since it colonizes so well in your colon it can help bring
about intestinal flora balance faster.
B. Lactis can help with constipation and diarrhea and
improve the overall intestinal environment. It excels at
destroying unfriendly bacteria in the gut because it is a
big producer of hydrogen peroxide, which is an excellent
natural antibacterial agent.
This is considered by many experts to be THE most potent
strain of the B. bifidum family. It colonizes in the large
intestine, and helps destroy harmful bacteria and other
pathogens.
B. Bifidum is also helpful for diarrhea and constipation,
and is often recommended for support during and after the
use of antibiotics, steroids or chemotherapy.
It produces B vitamins and assists in the absorption of
calcium, and it also releases lactic and acetic acid that
stop pathogen growth.
Bifidobacteria Breve BR-03
==================
B. Breve is a bacteria that colonizes the colon in infancy
and aids digestive and immune system health for a lifetime.
It helps stop rotavirus-induced diarrhea and IBS symptoms.
It also helps keep the colon intestinal pH at a health-
optimizing level and plays an important role in nutrition
absorption as well.
Lactobacillus Casei Shirota
======================
L. casei Shirota is one of the most studied probiotics in
existence. It helps replenish the levels of good bacteria
depleted by antibiotics, stress, natural aging, and diet.
It has been shown to complement the growth of L.
acidophilus in the small intestines, improve digestion,
regulate bowel movements, and reduce lactose intolerance.
These and Super Shield's 9 other superstar strains will
make sure your "life center"--your intestinal tract--helps
keep YOU healthy for all your years to come.
PS: A healthy GI tract also means eating a nutritious
diet of fiber-rich, alkaline foods. Let me show you how
simple and tasty it can be to get healthy.
