Biotics Supermix

Whether we can maintain our body weight or gain weight also depends on the microorganisms in our gut. These influence how many calories we absorb from food and how this energy is used.

It's not just the quantity and type of food we consume that determines our weight. Equally important is what happens to the food later in the body. Trillions of microbes in our gut play a crucial role in digesting food.

• Biotics Supermix should always be taken separately from food, preferably in the morning, after getting up, on an empty stomach.
• After taking it, you should wait at least 30 minutes until the next meal.
• An alternative intake window to the morning is the intake before sleeping. Here it should be noted that the last meal should already be 2 - 3 hours ago.
• Observe the activation time of 10 minutes (see above for details).

It is no wonder that psyllium husks are so popular. But what is behind it? In fact, they are the seed husks of the so-called Plantago ovata. This plantain species is related to, among others, the ribwort plantain and the sea plantain, which are well-known in this country.

Originally, the Plantago ovata They originate from India and Pakistan, which is why the seeds are often sold as "Indian psyllium seeds". The psyllium seeds, or rather their husks, get their name from the two-chambered capsule containing elliptical seeds that 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 hulls to multiply their volume. In contrast to whole psyllium seeds, whose volume increases ninefold on contact with liquid, the swelling index of the hulls is 40.

In addition, the fiber content of psyllium husks is significantly higher than that of psyllium seeds. At the same time, a kind of mucilage is formed when the husks swell. The latter forms a protective layer on the mucous membranes of the intestinal wall and can thus prevent irritation, among other things.

Due to the combination of swelling capacity, fiber content and mucus formation, psyllium husks can support the general well-being of the gastrointestinal tract. For example, the fiber they contain serves as food for the bacteria in the intestines, which can contribute to maintaining the health of the intestinal flora.

In addition, the secreted mucus not only prevents mucosal irritation, but is also said to help bind harmful substances. Moreover, the use of psyllium husks in intestinal complaints such as diarrhea can help to firm the stool. In turn, psyllium husks are also very popular for constipation. Here, the swelling increases the volume of the stool and can thus help to promote the natural movement of the bowels.

Since the psyllium seeds swell up strongly, you need to drink a lot of liquid throughout the day. It should be two to three liters so that the seeds can develop their effect.

Note: In case of chronic diseases, it is advisable to consult a doctor before taking psyllium to clarify possible interactions with medications.

It is advisable to let the mixed drink rest for 10 minutes before taking it. Thus, the contained intestinal bacteria can develop optimally.

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

A large proportion 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 breaking down food components. Without our intestinal flora, we would only be able to absorb a fraction of nutrients. In addition, the "good" bacteria keep potentially harmful bacteria from multiplying uncontrollably in the intestine.

For this reason, it is important that we always keep our intestinal flora in balance. This also makes the restoration of a damaged intestinal flora after antibiotic treatment all the more important. After all, the corresponding agents hardly make an exception between "beneficial" and "harmful" bacteria. But before we tell you what you should do, you must first recognize the symptoms of a disturbed intestinal flora.
