The gut flora, which consists of over 400 species of bacteria, can be altered by antibiotic use, aging, premature birth, or C-section. The intestines are essential barriers that selectively allow the assimilation or promote the excretion of dangerous compounds, and their function depends on a healthy bacterial balance. The most commonly used probiotics are lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, which are safe for both adults and children. They effectively colonize the intestines. However, once their ingestion is stopped, their numbers decrease or disappear. Probiotics promote the presence of beneficial bacteria by competing with pathogens for colonization of the digestive tract. In addition to decreasing the survival of pathogenic bacteria by lowering pH, probiotics strengthen the epithelial barrier. They control permeability by monitoring the integrity of tight junctions and they prevent pathogen adherence to epithelial cells by increasing the release of mucins on the intestinal surface. Probiotics promote the growth of bacteria that already live in the colon and they improve the growth and survival of probiotic strains taken as a supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unytii - Suppléments et Produits Naturels","offers":[{"title":"75g","offer_id":45076143210549,"sku":"hmf-powder-genestra-brands-75g","price":47.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/4865\/3365\/files\/8098717794357-1.webp?v=1783974385","url":"https:\/\/www.ocanova.ca\/products\/hmf-powder","provider":"Ocanova Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
