Reset Your Microbiome pH
A stool pH below 6.5 favors healthy microbiome bacteria. At 6.6 and above, pathogenic bacteria, parasites, yeast and fungi grow.
Some pathogens convert the urea naturally present in the large intestine into alkaline ammonia with an enzyme called urease.
By suppressing urease, ammonia is not formed in this manner and the pH of the stool can move in an acidic direction favoring healthy bacteria.
Bifidus Recovery
Bifidus and other lactic acid producing bacteria (LAB) create the lactic acid needed to give the stool an acidic pH and serves as the substrate for other bacteria to create other important short chain fatty acids, such as acetic, butyric and propionic acids.
In addition to lowering ammonia, we must also produce the actual acids themselves for proper stool pH and microbiome health.
By directly feeding Bifidus and the other LAB, we may support this process.
