Probiotic
Probiotic products are manufactured items containing organisms that are alive and that are believed to have beneficial aspects to the consumer. In most of the developed countries, probiotic products take the form of foods or dietary supplements. Only a few of these products are marketed as medical products. In the past, the only renowned probiotic products were fermented dairy products such as yogurt and kefir. These products were known to provide beneficial cultures. Over the years, more research and discoveries have led to the exponential growth in the subject, to include other dietary products such as cereal, juice, frozen yoghurt, granola and candy bars. However, the authenticity of the claims on the probiotic delivered by the given product cannot be ascertained by just looking at the product. Great care is to be taken in ascertaining whether a given product can indeed provide the adequate amounts of efficacious probiotic strains.
One of the probiotic containing products is the original fermented milk manufactured by BioKPLUS. One of the claims made for this product is an enhanced immune system. The probiotic microbes present in this product are the Lactobacillus bulgaricus and bifidobacteria. Research does indeed show the immense benefits the probiotic microbes have on the immune system. The immune system is made up of a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs, inclusive of the intestines. It serves to protect the human body against diseases. The intestines are the organs most functional in the immune system, with up to seventy percent of the response originating here. The intestines are highly endowed with antibody-producing lymphocytes because of their proximal contact with disease causing organisms, which are scientifically known as pathogens. The lymphocytes are located below the intestinal mucus membrane. The human body is also endowed with its own bacterial flora. This plays a crucial role in the immune response and acts as a source of energy. This energy is utilized by the epithelial cells located in the lining of the intestines to reproduce, in order to avoid diminishing.
Scientific research shows that probiotics present in BioKPLUS play a major role in the human body by strengthening the immune system. They strengthen the immunity of the intestinal mucous membrane. The human immune system is known to contain both the innate and acquired responses. The ingested probiotics enhance the production of more T & B lymphocytes. These in turn produce antibodies that include IgM, IgA and IgG, responsible for organizing the response of the immune system and the direct attack of infected cells. Additionally, the antibodies assist in the response to the pathogens in mitigating the possible harm by the pathogens. The body reacts to pathogenic infections through inflammation. During this process, the white blood cells seek, identify and destroy pathogenic organisms. Phagocytes are the distinct white blood cells responsible for this. The presence of lactobacillus in the body enhances the stimulation of phagocytic activity.
Based on the scientific evidence discussed above, I would take BioKPLUS and go to the extent of advocating the product to other persons. The health benefits accompanying the consumption of this probiotic-containing product are numerous. The cost incurred in purchasing this product is not comparable to the health risks faced due to having a weak immune system. Studies indeed show the human body has microorganisms in the system that helps in the efficient coordination of the bodies organs. Intake of Probiotics would therefore enhance the performance of the some of the body’s functions. BioKPLUS is an approved company whose quality products have been proven over the years. The legitimacy of the company and the long history the company has in the field also vouches on the need to take this product from this company.
