Health benefits of taking probiotics
What are the benefits of taking
probiotics? Bacteria have a reputation for causing disease, so the idea of tossing
down a few billion a day for your health might seem — literally and figuratively —
hard to swallow. But a growing body of scientific evidence suggests that you can treat
and even prevent some illnesses with foods and supplements containing certain kinds of
live bacteria. Northern Europeans consume a lot of these beneficial microorganisms,
called probiotics (from pro and biota, meaning "for life"), because of their
tradition of eating foods fermented with bacteria, such as yogurt. Probiotic-laced
beverages are also big business in Japan.
Some digestive disease specialists are recommending probiotic supplements for
disorders that frustrate conventional medicine, such as irritable bowel syndrome. Since
the mid-1990s, clinical studies suggest that probiotic therapy can help treat several
gastrointestinal ills, delay the development of allergies in children, and treat and
prevent vaginal and urinary infections in women.
Self-dosing with bacteria isn't as outlandish as it might seem. An estimated 100
trillion microorganisms representing more than 500 different species inhabit every
normal, healthy bowel. These microorganisms (or microflora) generally don't make us
sick; most are helpful. Gut-dwelling bacteria keep pathogens (harmful microorganisms) in
check, aid digestion and nutrient absorption, and contribute to immune function.
Not all probiotics are the same. Different strains of the bacteria have different
effects. For example, one strain may fight against cavity-causing organisms in our
mouths and don't need to survive a trip through our guts.
Uses of Lactobacillus Powder:
It is used to keep the normal balance of bacteria in the gastrointestinal (GI)
tract.
What do I need to tell my doctor BEFORE I take Lactobacillus Powder?
If you have an allergy to Lactobacillus or any other part of
lactobacillus
powder.
If you are allergic to lactobacillus powder; any part of lactobacillus powder; or

you had.
This medicine may interact with other drugs or health problems.
Tell your doctor and pharmacist about all of your drugs (prescription or OTC,
natural products, vitamins) and health problems. You must check to make sure that it is
safe for you to take lactobacillus powder with all of your drugs and health problems. Do
not start, stop, or change the dose of any drug without checking with your doctor.
What are some things I need to know or do while I take Lactobacillus Powder?
Tell all of your health care providers that you take lactobacillus powder. This
includes your doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and dentists.

If it is close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to
your normal time.
Do not take 2 doses at the same time or extra doses.
The Difference Between Animal Protein and Plant Protein
Animal proteins are complete proteins. That means they contain all the essential
amino acids that you need in your diet. Plant proteins are often, but not always,
incomplete sources of protein, There are benefits and concerns with both types of
protein. But diets that rely mostly on plants for protein have been linked to a lower
risk of stroke, heart disease, and early death.
Amino Acids in Protein
What you actually need from protein are the amino acids. You need 20
different ones. Your body makes some of them, but you must get nine from your diet.
These are called essential amino acids.
Complete proteins provide all nine essential amino acids. Sources of
complete protein include:
Dairy products
Poultry
Beef
Pork
Eggs
Quinoa
Whole sources of soy such as tofu, edamame, and tempeh
Most plant sources of protein are incomplete. However, you can get all the
essential amino acids you need from plant foods, as long as you eat a variety of them.
Sources of plant
protein are:
Nuts
Seeds
Whole grains
Legumes such as beans, peas, and lentils
Vegetables
Benefits of Plant Protein
The type of protein you eat may be more important than the amount. Plant-
based protein provides plenty of nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants that can improve
your overall health. The benefits of plant-based diet may include:
Protection against heart disease. A review of eight studies found that
people who followed a vegan or vegetarian diet were 30% less likely to die from ischemic
heart disease than people who ate meat. Plant-based diets are lower in saturated fats,
iron, and hormones.
Protection against cancer. Eating a diet rich in plant foods decreases your
risk of cancer. Phytochemicals are substances found in plants that may help prevent
cancer. Diets high in fiber can also help you control your weight and protect your gut
health. Obesity is a risk factor for many diseases.
Collagen powder
can also give you the same protect.
Health Benefits of Collagen
Collagen is a protein responsible for healthy joints and skin elasticity, or
stretchiness. It’s in your bones, muscles, and blood, comprising three quarters of your
skin and a third of the protein in your body.
As you age, your existing collagen breaks down, and it gets harder for your body
to produce more. As a result, many people turn to collagen supplements. These
supplements are usually powders, though there are also capsules and liquid supplements
available.
Collagen is also produced naturally in the body by combining amino acids, the
building blocks of proteins found in food. To produce collagen, your body needs:
Proline: found in egg whites, dairy, cabbage, mushrooms, and asparagus
Glycine: found in pork skin, chicken skin, and gelatin, and a variety of other
protein-rich foods
Vitamin C: found in citrus fruits and bell peppers
Zinc: found in beef, lamb, pork, shellfish, chickpeas, lentils, beans, milk,
cheese, and various nuts and seeds
Copper: found in organ meats, cocoa powder, cashews, sesame seeds, and lentils
Nutrition Information
Fourteen grams of collagen peptide (supplement) contains:
Calories: 50
Protein: 12 grams
Fat: 0 grams
Carbohydrates: 0 grams
Fiber: 0 grams
Sugar: 0 grams
The same amount of collagen peptide also contains 29 milligrams of calcium,
44.9 milligrams of sodium, and 0.98 milligrams of potassium.
Potential Health Benefits of Collagen Supplements
Because it makes up so many critical parts of our bodies, collagen is not
only beneficial but essential to maintaining good health. However, the benefits of
collagen supplements are still debated. While there is reasonable evidence that they
help maintain hydrated skin and relieve osteoarthritis pain, more research is needed
into less well-understood benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and blood sugar
levels.
Functional powder
In Japan, vegetable-based functional foods are not uncommon, with
food products such as FANCL’s kale drink,
Kyusai’s (Q’sai) kale supplement, Ito En’s green juice powder, and AFC’s chlorella
supplement.
On the other hand, duckweed is a less widely used ingredient, but is gradually
gaining attention for its ideal nutrition profile.
Hinoman’s Mankai ingredient contains more than 60 nutrients including iron,
magnesium, folic acid, vitamin B12, omega-3, amino acids, polyphenols and dietary fiber.
Mankai has been studied in several human and animal models. In a randomised
controlled human trial, people who drank a shake containing Mankai for two weeks showed
lower glucose rise immediately after eating and lower morning fasting glucose levels,
compared to those who drank a yoghurt shake.
According to Masami Kaneko, direct marketing manager at Ajinomoto, Mankai’s amino
acid composition is close to that of eggs.
Combined with its higher protein digestibility compared to soy flour, pea and
lentils, it makes Mankai a good substitute for animal protein and an ideal plant-based
source.
Each sachet of Ajinomoto’s
functional powder
is said to contribute one-third of the daily recommended vegetable intake which is
equivalent to about 117g of the 350g target recommended by the Ministry of Health, Labor
and Welfare of Japan.
Ajinomoto recommends taking one to three sachets a day, which can be dissolved in
water or milk.
According to Kaneko, this product is targeted at vegetarian or vegans, consumers who
are conscious of the environmental impact of their foods, and those who are concerned
about the lack of vegetables and protein in their diet.
Shell Powder
Shell powder is
finely ground oyster shell powder that is used for painting designs on a ground
material. It is used in some forms of Japanese embroidery.
Mother of pearl: The power of pearl powder
Pearl powder
has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine, as well as in
cosmetics and as health food supplements in China and Taiwan. Because of its dense
protein and mineral composition, it has been used to treat several skin and bone
disorders, as well as palpitations, insomnia, and epilepsy. The pearl-farming industry
itself was established in Japan and has existed for more than a century; today, pearls
are cultured globally and continue to receive attention for conferring health
benefits.Calcium carbonate is the primary component of mollusk shells (roughly 95%),
with the remainder an organic matrix including proteins, glycoproteins, and
polysaccharides. Pearl powder is known to have exhibited antiaging, antioxidant,
antiradiative, and tonic activities; in recent years, it has been incorporated into
health foods for such properties and used in the clinical setting to treat ulcers
(aphthous, gastric, and duodenal).Consisting of multiple active proteins, pearl powder
is thought to be conducive to skin cell growth and effective for wound repair. This
column focuses on recent research into the dermatologic potential of the powder derived
from mother of pearl.
