Provella™ Probiotics for Women #Giveaway (5 Winners)

Apr 062013
 

As a busy mom, a good portion of my time is spent ensuring that my family is happy and healthy.  Being the primary chef and chief lunch maker in our home, I can make sure that we all eat healthy and of course, in addition to my workout routine, I try hard to keep the kids active as well.  I figure that if we’re all healthy, that’s going to help keep us all happy, right?

Although I generally practice healthy eating habits, sometimes my digestive system goes a little wacky. I’ve been hearing all sorts of buzz recently surrounding probiotics, but I wasn’t exactly sure what probiotics were.  Here’s a little bit about them:

Probiotics are not drugs or vitamins. Rather, they are live microorganisms, usually bacteria, which may benefit human health. Probiotics are referred to as friendly or good bacteria. The human body, and particularly the lower gastrointestinal tract, contains a complex and diverse community of bacteria. Although we sometimes think of bacteria as germs, many actually help the body work properly. More than one hundred years ago, a Nobel laureate named Elie Metchnikoff first suggested that consuming these good bacteria, or “probiotics,” could have substantial health benefits.
