Today and tomorrow Stars and Celebrities will be pampered with an array of earth-friendly health and beauty products including the probiotic brand to watch, Bio-K+. Representatives will be talking about how probiotics help boost the immune system and keep it in “peak performance.” A-listers just might appreciate some support to keep their immune system in top shape with their frenzied lifestyles and long days on location. Bio-K+ representatives will also help clear up some of the confusion about probiotics by explaining how to choose effective ones, why they’re good for you, and what you need to check on labels to ensure their efficacy.

Today, it is generally recognized that probiotics are not only for health issues like IBS, to boost your immune system prior to an operation, or to use after a round of antibiotics. Many studies now show how taking probiotics on a regular basis is good for our overall health. www.biokplus.com.

As you know, probiotics are living microorganisms and must remain so to be effective, so quality control is critical.  You also need to choose probiotics with recognizable strains, and verify if the brand has clinical trials to prove its effectiveness.  You also need to make sure that the clinical trials have been conducted on the finished product as it is sold in stores and not just on the individual strains in the particular probiotic formulation.  Finally, make sure that the bacteria count is guaranteed at the expiry date of the product and not just at the production date.

Screen shot 2012 02 24 at 10.31.41 PM bio k+ is in hollywood for the oscars! & 2 prizesThe effect and efficacy of probiotics can vary depending on the bacterial strains they contain.  Experts agree that the properties and performance of a probiotic product are specific to the strain of bacteria.  Not all probiotic strains are alike.  For example, in Bio-K+, the strains are L. acidophilus CL1285 and L. Casei LBC80R and this combination has been proven to be effective in published clinical trials available on the Bio-K+ website and Pubmed.

About Amanda

I'm Amanda. I started Natural Mommie in 2009 and have been turning mommies from eco-weak to eco-chic ever since! Having an intense addiction to sparkly pink strawberry flavored lipgloss and never claiming to be perfectly green I vowed to not give up my hip mama self once I became a mom and wanted to bring a little more organic into my life. My closet still isn’t full of organic cotton and bamboo, but it’s getting there!
