Probiotics

Live microorganisms called probiotics have a variety of positive health impacts. Their benefits include improving mental health as well as gastrointestinal health, which includes the ability to prevent and treat ulcers.

Probiotics appear to increase the production of mucus, which protects the stomach lining. They might also encourage the growth of new blood vessels, which eases the transport of healing compounds to the ulcer site and speed the healing process. Probiotics may also directly contribute to the prevention of H. pylori infections. Furthermore, these helpful bacteria seem to increase the effectiveness of traditional treatments by about 150%, all while lowering diarrhea and other antibiotic-related side effects by as much as 47%. Research is still continuing to determine the dosage necessary for the greatest advantages. However, the majority of the studies mentioned show positive results after consuming 200 million to 2 billion colony-forming units (CFU) for 2 to 16 weeks.
