| such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidus bacteria, provide important nutritional support for everyone, especially those who have taken antibiotics. No matter what your state of health, you can probably improve it by taking acidophilus/bifidus bacteria supplements. Because arthritis is so closely linked to diet, nutrition and digestion, it makes sense to improve the body's assimilation of nutrients by adding friendly bacteria to the daily diet. |
| In addition to increasing the population of friendly bacteria in their digestive tracts, many arthritics can relieve their symptoms and improve their digestion with hydrochloric acid, or HCl. We are so conditioned by the advertising campaigns of antacid products that most Americans assume their indigestion is caused by too much, not too little, HCl, but medical research indicates that 10 to 15 percent of the general population has this problem. Among those in poor health, the percentage is higher, and an estimated 50 percent of those over age 60 have insufficient hydrochloric acid. |
