Biotics Supermix

Whether or not we can maintain or increase body weight is decided by our intestines: micro-organisms live here, which fundamentally influence how many calories we absorb or convert into fat deposits.

Whether we are fat or thin is not only determined by what and how much we eat. Almost as crucial is what happens later inside our bodies with the ingested food and drink. Trillions of microbes in our intestines support much of the intestine as food is digested.

It is no wonder that psyllium husks are so popular. But what's behind all this? Strictly speaking, the miracle product is the seed husks of the so-called Plantago ovata. The plantain species is related, among other things, to ribwort plantain, which is also known in this country as a medicinal plant, as well as beach plantain.

Originally, Plantago ovata comes from India and Pakistan, which is why the seeds are often sold as "Indian flea seeds". The psyllium seeds or their shells get their name from the double capsule with its elliptical seeds, which visually resemble fleas.

Psyllium husks have the property of swelling strongly on contact with water. In this process, the outer layer of long-chain sugar molecules binds a lot of water, causing the shells to multiply their volume. In contrast to whole psyllium, whose volume increases nine times on contact with liquid, the swelling index of the shells is 40.

Furthermore, the fibre content of psyllium husks is significantly higher than that of psyllium seeds. At the same time, a kind of mucus is formed when the husks swell. The latter lies like a protective layer on the mucous membranes of the intestinal wall and can thus prevent irritations.

Due to the unique combination of a high swelling capacity, the high fibre content and the secretion of the protective mucus, psyllium husks are considered a popular household remedy for all kinds of complaints in the gastrointestinal tract. For example, the dietary fibres contained in psyllium husks serve as food for the bacteria contained in the intestines, which can contribute to maintaining a healthy intestinal flora.

In addition, the secreted mucus not only prevents mucous membrane irritation, but is also supposed to help bind harmful substances. Furthermore, the use of psyllium husks can help to strengthen the stool in cases of intestinal complaints such as diarrhoea. In return, psyllium husks are also very popular for constipation. Here, the swelling increases the volume of the stool and can thus help to promote natural intestinal movement.

Since the psyllium swells up a lot, you must drink a lot of fluids throughout the day. Two to three liters should be enough for the seeds to work optimally.

Attention: Use in chronic diseases Before taking flea seed in case of a chronic disease, you should consult your doctor to rule out any interaction with medication.

It is advisable to let the mixed drink rest for 10 minutes before taking it. This will allow the intestinal bacteria to develop optimally.

Many people still associate bacteria with something negative and believe that without exception, all bacteria are harmful. If just these people knew that an average person consists of a collection of about 1.5 kilograms of bacteria, they would probably turn their stomach. These bacteria, which come from a total of 400-500 species, are anything but harmful to us.

Most of these bacteria live in our intestines and are indispensable for our lives. Also known as intestinal flora, they perform numerous important tasks, such as the breakdown of nutritional components. Without our intestinal flora we could only absorb a fraction of nutrients. In addition, the "good" bacteria prevent potentially harmful bacteria from multiplying uncontrollably in the gut.

For this reason, it is important that we always keep our intestinal flora in balance. All the more important is the restoration of a damaged intestinal flora after antibiotic treatment. Finally, the corresponding active ingredients barely make an exception between "beneficial" and "harmful" bacteria. Before we tell you what you should do, you first need to recognize the symptoms of a disturbed intestinal flora.
