Residential bacteria form colonies in your
gastrointestinal tract, mouth, and vaginal tract. Transient bacteria are
travellers that are just passing through. Probiotics are another term
for friendly bacteria that live and work in your gastrointestinal tract
every day of your life. Think of them as the "home guard," a mighty
bacterial army that defends your body against dangerous invaders. Having
sufficient numbers of these friendly bacteria in residence can help
prevent a wide range of health problems.

The Secret World Within You: How It Dramatically
Influences Your Health
Just as Earth holds an abundance of life forms - sometimes existing
harmoniously, other times struggling fitfully against each other -- so
too does the human body hold a vast internal ecosystem consisting of
thousands of billions of living microorganisms that co-exist.
This vast internal ecosystem, called by many researchers our "human
intestinal flora," dramatically influences, and to a certain degree even
directs, every individual's personal state of health and well being --
including our physical and mental health, and our metabolism.
Over 400 distinct species of microorganisms inhabit the various regions
of the human digestive tract, making up nearly four pounds of every
individual's total body weight. This vast population of microorganisms
far exceeds the number of tissue cells that make up the human body.
When functioning properly, this vast unseen world:
Helps guard your body against unfriendly bacteria.
Helps in the function of the digestive system.
Maintains your body's vital chemical and hormone balance.
Performs a vast number of needed tasks for maintaining high energy
levels, proper immune function.
The result is that, since early 1989, when this product was introduced
commercially, a continuously growing number of individuals, doctors,
clinics, and health care professionals have praised this product and
recommended it to their friends and patients.

Death Begins in the Colon. Dr Robert Chamberlain March. BS, MsT, RMT, ND
We are exposed to numerous pollutants in our everyday
lives: lead, mercury, cadmium (plus over 4500 toxic heavy metal
by-products), drugs, vaccines and a host of other dangers are wreaking
havoc in our bodies.
As our toxin levels rise, our immune system and other critical processes
in our body become dangerously compromised and begin to fail.
The secret to good health lies in the friendly bacteria in the
intestinal tract.
Lactobacillus bacteria form a significant part of the natural intestinal
flora. Large populations of this, and other lactic acid producing
bacteria, regulate the levels of friendly bacteria and reduce the levels
of toxic pathogens that cause ill health.
Lactic acid producing lactobacilli bacteria alter the pH of the large
intestine, making it inhospitable to undesirable bacteria, moulds, mould
spores and yeast, particularly Candida. Putrefactive bacteria, which are
potentially detrimental to good health and increase foul wind
production, are inhibited by acidic conditions in the colon.
The presence of active bacteria in the gut can aid the digestive process
by helping to break down foods. To attain the health benefits attributed
to Lactobacilli fermented foods, live active bacteria need to be
consumed on a regular basis. It is believed the life span in the human
body of these cells is 3 to 10 days. Only the active forms have the
ability to tolerate the acidity of the stomach and the alkalinity of the
intestine to produce health benefits.
There is a lot of confusion in the marketplace in relation to the
abundance or “count” of bacteria in various probiotic products. Many
companies are claiming that their products have “billions” more bacteria
than other products to gain a marketing edge. This is very misleading
for the consumer and, in reality, is little more than sales hype.
Bacteria live and work in colonies. In scientific terms these colonies
are called, Colony-Forming Units (CFU’s). Some companies intentionally
shake the colonies apart, separating the CFU’s, to increase the bacteria
count of their products, which is misleading to consumers.
Flora Food has:
-
0.8 billion CFU Lactobacillus Acidophilus,
-
0.1billion CFU Bifdobacterium Longum and
-
0.1 billion CFU Bifidobacterium Bifidum.
The reproduction ability of the bacteria in the gut is
the single most important factor in a probiotic product.
The bacteria must be in their natural state and alive so that once they
arrive in the gut they can multiply and produce all the substrains
necessary to maintain a healthy intestinal flora.

The usefulness of probiotics has been known for
thousands of years. In fact, the ability of beneficial bacteria to
transform milk into something with greater keeping ability and dietary
attractiveness was recorded as far back as 6,000 years ago in Sumerian
tablets regarding cheese-making. Throughout most of history, food has
been used as medicine as well as nourishment. The revered Greek
physician Hippocrates said, "Let your food be your medicine and your
medicine your food."
An agriculturalist visiting a remote part of Iceland discovered rich
tasting vegetables produced without chemicals. Returning to the U.S.,
the agriculturalist conducted a series of studies which revealed the
secret of the soil's growing power.
The patented formula is a unique strain of Bacillus Laterosporus (B.O.D.
STRAIN), a naturally occurring bacteria used in Latero-Flora
Transient microorganisms are extremely important to
understand. These include food-borne microorganisms and soil-borne
microorganisms that make their way into the human digestive tract and,
depending upon the characteristics of the specific organism involved,
influence the overall health of the human system.
Transient micro organisms are different from resident microorganisms in
that they do not take up permanent residence in the gastrointestinal
tract. Instead, they establish small colonies for brief periods of time
before dying off or being flushed from the intestinal system via normal
digestive processes, or by peristaltic bowel action. However, in taking
up temporary residence, they contribute to the overall function and
condition of the digestive system. For example, the lives of some of the
most important resident micro-organisms involved in human digestion and
intestinal health depend on by-products produced by the visiting
transients. Therefore, in many cases, these two very different types of
micro-organisms nonetheless enjoy a complex symbiotic relationship that
may dramatically influence the health and well being of your entire
body.
Bacillus Laterosporus (B.O.D.™ strain)
This is one of the most enigmatic of the transient "friendly" micro
organisms found in the human gastrointestinal tract. Bacillus
Laterosporus (B.O.D.™ strain) is a spore bearing bacteria. This enables
the encased spore to survive the stomach acids. Thus, the full benefit
of Bacillus Laterosporus B.O.D.™ will bloom and flourish in the colon
and establish colonies that will enhance your immune system.
What Latero-Flora Does
Latero-Flora™ can help maintain a healthy colon and will
help populate the intestines with beneficial bacteria. Latero Flora™ has
shown significant effectiveness in improving and, in many cases,
eliminating gastrointestinal symptoms and food sensitivities while
enhancing the patient's digestive capacities.
LATERO-FLORA™ (B.O.D. strain) is available only through health
professionals. This product can help maintain a healthy colon and will
help populate the intestines with beneficial bacteria. The result is
that, since early 1989, when this product was introduced commercially, a
continuously growing number of individuals, doctors, clinics, and health
care professionals have praised this product and recommended it to their
friends and patients.
What professionals say about Latero Flora
"I am seeing an epidemic in overgrowth of Candida Albicans... since I
have been using flora balance my clinical results are better.........it
works better than acidophilus does in restoring health and getting
people to say my symptoms are gone".
Dr. Robert C. Atkins M.D. in "Dr. Atkins Health Revolution"
"Bacillus latereosporus BOD has a major impact on restoring the normal
intestinal flora by eliminating the overgrowth of Candida".
Serafina Corsello, M.D. in "Bacillus Laterosporus BOD" The Revolutionary
New Natural Approach to Control Candida and Yeast Infections
"A scientist describes Bacillus Laterosporus BOD as a live organism
which punctures the cell membrane of bacteria and fungi, consuming them
"phagocytically (eating and digesting)."
Gregory O.M.D. in "A Holistic Protocol for The Immune System"
"Latero Flora™ has shown significant effectiveness in improving and, in
many cases, eliminating gastrointestinal symptoms and food sensitivities
while enhancing the patient's digestive capacities....I am convinced
that Latero FloraTM will play a very important role in fighting the
scourge of this century - the suppression of our immune system."
Dr. Luc De Schepper's report in the Townsend Letter for Doctors
Adults-every morning, 20 minutes before eating, take 2
capsules with water. After one to two months, reduce usage by half.
Children-take 1 capsule as described above. Capsules may be opened and
contents dissolved in water. Store at room temperature OR refrigerate.
Shelf life for capsules is two years.
Ingredients:
serving size 2 capsules
Bacillus Laterosporus (BOD strain) 70 mcg.
Total carbohydrate < 1g
Vegetarian Capsules. Contains no diary, yeast, corn, starch, fructose, lactose,
preservatives, artificial coloring or flavoring.
Other Ingredients: Rice flour, magnesium stearate.
Refrigeration:
Latero-Flora has bacillus bacteria which is a spore bearing. This means
it is encapsulated so that the Latero-Flora will make it through the
stomach acid into the gut. There it sets up colonies in the gut. Every
32 minutes the spores colonize. For this reason Latero-Flora does not
need to be refrigerated.
Bacteria like Acidophilus and other forms of probiotic are live so they
do require refrigeration. Like yogurt which has acidophilus.
