In this video, I'll cover the benefits of probiotics and the top science to determine
rather or not you should be taking them.
Probiotics have been at the forefront of the research and there's good reason behind it.
We'll finding that they are so beneficial for not only our gut health but our entire
body health. You know, if its helping with mental conditions or if it's regulating hormones,
Probiotics are involved in so many areas of our health. And I have so many patients who
come up to me today and they go, “ Is it dangerous if I take Probiotics or should I
be taking these?” And it just shows that in general, most people don't understand what
probiotics are. So that's what we're going to discover in this video. We're going to
talk about the benefits of probiotics and we're also going to talk about the top science
to determine rather or not you should be taking probiotics. So stick around to the end of
this video, but before we get started, I'm Doctor Zyrowski, and welcome to the channel,

Let's go ahead and talk about probiotics now. We're going to talk about kind of the general
education surrounding probiotics. First of all, what are they? So probiotics are live
bacteria. Now these are the bacteria that are living on, in and everywhere on our bodies.
And they outnumber your cells 10:1. Now imagine, we have about 40, 50 trillion cells in our
body, imagine these bacteria outnumbering them 10 to 1. That's incredible, truly incredible!
It's known as the “forgotten organ”. One of the reason it's known as the forgotten
organ is because first of all in science, in general healthcare, nobody was looking
at it forever, nobody was looking at the bacteria, nobody was looking at this micro-biome. And
then essentially, it was forgotten. But then also they realize this is an organ, it participates
so many different functions of the entire body. Micro-Biome is an actual organ because
it has so many important process in the body. Now these probiotics are everywhere in and
around our body like I have mention. So probiotics, live bacteria that are incredibly important
for our overall health. Let's talk about some top benefits that they have to offer. It help
you digest your food, they actually help you transform food into different vitamins, it
could incredibly essential for breaking down different fatty acids, so important for digesting
food. Solve digestive disorders, so many people suffering from these today, we will get more
into that in just a moment. It's going to improve intestinal health, lower cholesterol
if you're having some sort of cardiovascular condition, you have high cholesterol, this
supports your cholesterol levels. It enhances immunity, very important. Supports weight
loss, supports brain health, you know, and also supports many of the hormone imbalance
that people are facing today. So these are some of the top benefits, of course there's
many more. Let's talk about the some of top science that determine if you need probiotics.
Now first of all, if you are someone whose been recently on meds, now all these different
medications out there have proven in somewhere or other slow the growth of good bacteria
within the body or to even just wipe it out entirely right. So if we talk about in terms
of wiping out the bacteria entirely, we're talking about an antibiotic. And so antibiotics,
you know even though they are a blessing in modern society. They're also a huge detriment,
and when we look at many of the different cutting edge scientific journals are talking
about how the over prescription of antibiotics and it is going in causing superbugs in causing
people to have just very poor health because it's wiping out the whole microbiome on their
body, and so if you're somebody's been recently on an antibiotic, it's very important that
you actually have a program to restore the probiotics in your body so if you're wiping
them out you need to get them back. And so that's very important to understand. Now the
other thing is at the antivirals, the anti-inflammatory drugs like any of these actually slow down
the growth or just wipe out bacteria in general. So we have to make sure that if we're on many
of these different meds, we're understanding first of all if they're killing the bacteria
or messing with the micro-biome on our body, and then of course coming up with a plan in
order to restore the healthy bacteria in our system. Now let's go and talk about mental
health problems, like you know, this is something I'm very passionate about all these different
mental health disorders out there today because many people are suffering from them. They
have no answers absolutely no answers, and of course you know they didn't choose to have
them, they literally just, you know, develop them, they woke up with them. You know, so
if you're someone who has anxiety, depression, some other psychiatric disorder, bipolar disorder,
somebody who has autism or even finding bacteria that probiotics are involved in autistic behavior,
so these kids have autism have lack of particular probiotics in your system. Anyway, when we
look at probiotics in general, very powerful for overall mental health in brain function,
or something referred to as the gut-brain axis. This gut-brain Axis will determine basically
how your brain will function based on how your gut is functioning. So we have to make
sure that you have good healthy gut good probiotics in our system. Next is diarrhea, many people
have chronic diarrhea day in and day out. Basically, you know, keeping it real simple,
probiotics, taking them on a regular basis has proven to reverse this problem that many
people face today. So it's very important make sure we're taking probiotic for that.
Now, in today's society we live in an allergy ridden society like no other. And the thing
is, is that you know our genetics have not changed right? You know, some people want
to say, “Oh, we're diagnosing it better , this and that.” Absolutely not! Totally
false. Our genetics, the genetics in the human species has totally remain the same but problems
like allergies have absolutely skyrocketing. So it's the amount of intervention that's
occurring on humans, right. So we look at medical intervention that playing a huge role
in the amount of allergies people are facing, but also lifestyle factors, how you're eating,
how you're living. The chemicals that you're bringing into your home, the chemicals you
have on your body, so we're having autoimmune crisis, allergies is a big one. Anyway, probiotics
really helps with this, we need to make sure we're taking probiotics for someone who has
allergies. Skin conditions is another major problem. To keep it really simple, if you
have a skin condition or if you constantly have skin problems then there's a good chance
you have a very unhealthy gut, and so taking probiotics is going to really help this process.
I mean people that I've seen have issues with skin disorders basically probiotics and it
always helps right. Even if you're someone who has acne breakouts all the time, probiotics
can be incredibly beneficial, for someone who has eczema, if your children have eczema,
you're having rashes show up make sure that you're getting good probiotic ordered to make
sure that you're reversing these different skin condition. Healthy skin equals healthy
gut, vice versa. By the way, when it comes to probiotics you don't want to just get any
probiotics. A lot of them are junk out there, you want to really get the research proven
ones that are considered to be stable and they're not bad and just literally junk by
the time you get them. Because they became destabilize from sitting on a shelf in a store
somewhere, we want to make sure we're getting good quality probiotics. I'll put a link in
the description to the one that I currently am using. Now, digestive disorders is another
big issue okay, rather it's chronic inflammatory bowel disorder, if it's Crohn's disease, ulcerative
colitis, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, I mean I can go on and on with all the different
gut issues that I work with today. But if you're having digestive disorder, you want
to make sure that you're taking probiotic on the regular because it's proven with all
these different digestive disorders that it really helps reverse them.
Next is autoimmune conditions, like I kind of mentioned it in the allergies, but you
know, as far as autoimmune condition go, we are amongst the autoimmune crisis in modern
day society. I mean there's so many people who are suffering from, you know, severe thyroid
disorders to hormone imbalance, to I mean we can go on and on for days when we look
at these things. But anyway, we have to make sure that we're working to balance our immune
system okay? And not only do we have autoimmune condition but we also have a depressed immune
system where people are constantly getting the flu, people constantly getting viruses,
and their bodies are just no able to fight in order to stay healthy. And so of course,
returning to things like the flu shot and all these other foreign substances to our
body in order to try to help keep us healthy. So we actually might just boost your immune
system in order to keep us healthy, take probiotics it helps with that in a huge way. Next is
weight gain. Now a lot of people are suffering from weight gain now you're someone, probably
thinking well you know out of all the things probiotics and is going to help with weight
loss? Absolutely! There is plenty of research showing out there that are showing when people
just start taking probiotics alone, literally no exercise not even working on their diet.
They just start taking probiotics, they start to have weight loss. So it's very very powerful
in the way of weight loss. So if we want to make sure like I said we'll make sure they
were taking a good quality probiotic because like I said a lot of the ones that are on
the store shelves. They're you know, they're de-stabilized, they're junk by the time you
get them in your home. So we don't want probiotics that are in unstable environments that aren't
going to do any good for our bodies, so we got to make sure we're taking high-quality
probiotics particularly ones that are research patented and proven to work correctly. I put
a link in the description below give this video a thumbs up share with your friends
and I'll see you in the next video. But before you go, be sure to check out this video over
here that is going to help you reverse gut conditions. Now, when we look at all these
different gut conditions were looking at an inflammatory problem, this video helps with
reversing gut inflammation. The first one I really like uses L-glutamine, the next is
Arabinogalactan, next is licorice root extract and then the last is going to be aloe vera
and these all work very, very well.
