Probiotics for When Antibiotics Are Necessary

It's been a week since I have been able to post, and I apologize to our readers. I had been suffering from an extremely painful sore throat and ear ache that led to four trips to the emergency room. Eventually, I was diagnosed with an abscess on my tonsil that had to be removed. Throughout all of the treatments, I was given heavy amounts of super antibiotics orally and intravenously. Today, I am slowly on the mend, but antibiotics are part of my life for the next two weeks.

One advice consistent from friends and doctors was to take Probiotics. We chose New Chapter Organics Probiotic All-Flora, Vegetarian Capsules

Probiotic All-Flora contains nine strains of live probiotics cultured together on a non-dairy whole-food medium and then combined with growth-stimulating prebiotic Organic Apples, and Organic Inulin sourced from Organic Jerusalem Artichokes. The live probiotics in Probiotic All-Flora, including revered probiotic strains such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Lactobacillus helveticus, help support optimal digestive and immune system function...

 

Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that occur naturally in the human intestinal tract. Foods "cultured" with beneficial strains of probiotics such as yogurt and kefir have been used throughout history to improve overall health and vitality, and today, there are many studies reinforcing their ability to balance and promote digestive health.* Probiotics also play an important role in modulating the immune system, 70% of which is located in the gut.
