View Full Version : probiotic narcotics
just thought id share my recent health related find...kefir. not the kind you buy at whole foods that has 10 strains of good bacteria i mean the homemade kind with what reported 50-60. i use it as a base for my protein shakes it contains b-vitamins too and the cool thing about it is it's a living thing that just keeps on giving you fresh kefir everyday

Kefir and other probiotics are really good stuff. it really makes my guts to work bit better.
So what exactly does this do for you?
it balances and enhances the micro-flora in your gut leading to better digestion absorption of vitamins and minerals and increases your immune response

metagenics is the best i've ever used. i take it daily.
I can dig it. Sounds like something very beneficial.

Yeah, very good thread started by Iron. Kefir and probiotics in general are very underestimated. I would give higher rating to kefir than to commercial probiotic with overinflated prices. Altough "leaky gut syndrome" is not generaly accepted by mainstream medicine there is a lot of truth in there. Lot of inflammation comes from gut, and unbalanced gut flora causes lot of problem and majority of us have unbalanced gut flora- lot of medications (especially antibiotics) kill gut bacteria- and these bacterias are responsible for digestion/absorbtion of lot of vitamins and minerals.
Also low thyroid and adrenals limit gut bacteria growth, and enzymes as well- so this could possibly have an effect on muscle growth.
Kefir is much more simpler and certainly more human treatment than "fecal transplant".
