In the human gut, both good and bad bacteria coexist, with 85% good bacteria (probiotics) and 15% bad bacteria (harmful bacteria). This ratio ensures a healthy gut microflora and normal digestion, a good immune system (because 70-80% of the immune system is concentrated in the intestinal tract). Therefore, probiotics work to supplement beneficial bacteria that have been shown to bring many health benefits.
Digestion is the process of turning food into substances that can be absorbed through the digestive canal to enter the bloodstream and feed the body. Digestion begins from the mouth to the large intestine. Any cause that alters, hinders and upsets the digestion of food in the digestive tract is called a digestive disorder.
Gastrointestinal disorders are not a pathology, but a consequence of certain causes. If this condition persists and is not treated properly, the person will most likely suffer from gastrointestinal diseases, which can even turn into intestinal cancer.
How do digestive disorders manifest themselves?
Gastrointestinal disorders often have various symptomatic manifestations. It can occur simultaneously in many parts of the digestive system but can also affect only one part.
Common symptoms:
- Feeling bloated: Patients always feel tight stomach, discomfort especially after eating. At that time, food is not fully digested, stagnant in the digestive canal, causing discomfort.
- Feeling of nausea, vomiting: Due to irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, the patient will have a feeling of nausea and vomiting.
- Belching, heartburn: Disorders in the stomach and duodenum cause belching and heartburn.
- Always dull abdominal pain: This is a typical symptom of digestive disorders. The pain can occur in the upper abdomen, stomach area and lower abdomen. The pain is mild at first, then spreads and worsens, especially after eating hot spicy foods, sour foods, or when suffering from food poisoning.
- Patients with abnormal bowel movements: Constipation, diarrhea, defecation several times a day,... due to the elimination dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract. If this condition persists, it will cause the patient fatigue, weakness of the body.
- Loss of appetite: Patients often have a bitter mouth, do not want to eat anything.
What are probiotics?
Probiotics are preparations containing beneficial microorganisms (probiotics), which improve the balance of intestinal flora, prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Probiotics help increase intestinal absorption of vitamins, strengthen the body's immune system, prevent and reduce the severity of acute diarrhea, diarrhea caused by bacterial infections,...
BioSubtilis probiotics with the main component is a strain of Bacillus subtilis bacteria combined with L-lysine.
Bacillus subtilis has the ability to produce many enzymes, but the most important is amylase and protease, which are 2 enzymes in the digestive enzyme system.
Bacillus subtilis exists in the product in a spore state, so that when ingested in the stomach it is not destroyed by acids nor digestive enzymes in gastric juice. In the intestine, spores germinate and develop into an active form that helps balance the beneficial microflora in the intestinal tract, improving the digestive system, especially after prolonged use of antibiotics.
L-lysine is one of the 12 essential amino acids required in daily meals, which enhances calcium absorption and retention, preventing the excretion of this mineral from the body. In addition, L-lysine is also a component of many proteins, which is an important factor in maintaining the immune system, developing digestive enzymes.
