Our bodies are surrounded by various microorganisms, including bacteria. People tend to have a negative view of bacteria and often associate bacteria with various diseases. This bias has limited the growth of knowledge about bacteria. In fact, most bacteria are harmless to humans and are our best friends.
Humans have been using bacteria that are beneficial to humans since ancient times, although humans at that time did not understand the underlying principles. Such as winemaking and dough making. The bean curd and stinky tofu that Chinese people love to eat, the natto that the Japanese eat, the kimchi that Koreans eat, and the yogurt that Europeans eat are actually the result of bacterial fermentation. When people eat these foods, they also eat bacteria and bacterial metabolites that are good for the body. These foods and bacteria can improve human health, which has been clearly recorded in historical documents and has also been supported by modern scientific research.
Scientists from various countries do not completely agree on how to define "probiotics". But in general, bacteria that are beneficial to the body can be called probiotics. The biological food chain cannot lack probiotics. The transformation, decomposition, absorption, and excretion of all organic and inorganic substances are carried out in the world of probiotics.
Probiotics include Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Enterococcus, Streptococcus, and other bacteria that often live in the human intestinal mucosal tissue, forming a force against the invasion of harmful substances into the human body. Scientists have discovered that probiotics can coexist with the body's immune system. Probiotics have the ability to maintain the normal function of the human immune system. The importance of probiotics to the human body is self-evident.
Lactobacilli are part of probiotics. In a broad and narrow sense, probiotics are a general term, and lactic acid bacteria are specifically represented.
Functional probiotics are bacteria that can prevent or even treat certain diseases. With the development of medicine, scientists have discovered that in addition to their basic intestinal health effects, probiotics can also deal with some diseases. Jingyue Biotechnology has been researching in this area for more than 20 years and has successfully discovered and cultivated more than 30 types of functional probiotics. for example
- Antiallergic AAP-1, AAP-2 Lactobacillus paracasei
- GMNL-263 Lactobacillus reuteri that lowers blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids
- GM-020 Lactobacillus rhamnosus for weight loss
- ADP-1 Lactobacillus paracasei for oral care and tooth protection
- VGA compound probiotics for female reproductive system care
Wait, these are outstanding representatives of functional probiotics.
In the near future, people will have a deeper understanding and application of probiotics. If the concept of medicine is treatment, then probiotics are health care. Probiotics are gradually replacing drugs in some functions and reducing the side effects of drugs. Using health care to achieve good health and reduce dependence and demand on medicine is just around the corner.
