By now, most of us have heard of probiotics. They
are microorganisms that live on and in us, and
that help serve a number of functions in the
body, all of which are positive (hence the prefix
pro) and some of which we need in order to stay
alive. What you might not realise, however, is
that there are many interesting things to learn
about probiotics many thousands of things, in
fact. Many of these interesting titbits, were
not aware of yet the research is ongoing.
However, below, you will find 6 facts that were
certain you'll find incredibly. 1.Probiotics
help us to stay alive. If we didnt have
probiotics, wed die. They help us do a number of
things that we cant do on our own. For
example, some probiotics fight off dangerous
bacteria. Without those probiotics, wed be
riddled with infections. Other probiotics help us
to digestive food. Without these probiotics, wed
be unable to extract all the nutrients, vitamins,
and minerals that we need from our food.

2.According to The Wageningen Center for Food
Sciences, who are based in the Netherlands,
there are more than 1000 different types of
probiotic that live on and in humans. Were
crawling with these little bacteria and fungi
yes, thats what probiotics are microorganisms
mostly consisting of bacteria and fungi. When
you hear the term friendly bacteria, thats
simply different terminology for probiotics.
Bizarrely (perhaps), we dont call them friendly
fungi or fun-guy, even though some of them are
indeed fungi. From latero flora to acidophilus,
there are 1000s of probiotics and they help us
carry out a number of functions. 3.Researchers
at the Center for Genome Sciences at Washington
Universitys School of Medicine have calculated
that there are more than 100,000,000,000,000
(thats 100-trillion) probiotics living on each
human body!

Thats more stars than the Milky Way (Theres
only 100-billion stars!), more trees than there
are on earth (only 3-trillion trees on earth
although thats probably a shock too. Most people
assume there are fewer), but more grains of sand
on earth than probiotics on our bodies (there are
a quintillion grains of sand on earthwhatever a
quintillion is!). 4.The probiotics in your guts
affect your mood. Thats right. Scientists have
established a relationship between depression and
probiotics in a persons guts. Those ancient
sayings, I can feel it in my guts turn out to
be true.Scientists at The Department of
Nutritional Sciences, University of Toronto,
have shown a relationship between probiotics and
emotional states in general. Probiotics may have
a role to play in a persons moods! Thats
fascinating. 5.According to scientists at
Switzerland's Centre Hospitalier, University of
Vaudois, having a healthy collection of
probiotics, including latero flora, acidophilus,
and all the common strains we see in health
foods, contributes to a healthy and functioning
immune system.
