Yogurt, acidophilus & bifidis cultures – Christian Hansen’s Lab Inc., 9015 W. Maple St, Milwaukee, WI
In all mucous membranes of the body there are friendly bacterial flora. Lactobacillus acidophilus is
one of the most important ones that live in the large and small intestines. It is much more beneficial
bacteria than lactobacillus bulgaricus which is bacteria which is used in combination with lactic
streptococcus to make yogurt. At one time there was a great deal of importance attached to yogurt
as a therapeutic product. This was based on the hypothesis that the bacteria in yogurt could be
established in the lower intestine. It has been found that the yogurt bacterias cannot be implanted in
the intestines, but that the intestines are the natural habitat of the closely related Acidophilus organism.
L. acidophilus keeps the digestive process in efficient working order. Specifically the growth of L.
acidophilus produces conditions that are unfavorable to the growth of putrefactive bacteria, which are
harmful bacteria. Acidophilus also helps in the synthesis of folic acid, one of the B complex vitamins and
vitamin K. Acidophilus aids in the breakdown of food particles in the lower intestines. It destroys toxins
resulting from the accumulation of waste in the lower intestine. It also synthesizes acids which aid in
the utilizations of minerals. A super food! Think about your intestines. They are probably almost shot
by now since you’ve been ingesting chemicals into your body since birth. (Monosodium Glutamate is in
some canned baby goods, ad nauseum. A note about baby foods: Why feed your live baby dead food
from a can? But a blender or food grander and prepare fresh foods for your baby instead. Too much
work, you say? That depends on how much you value your baby’s health.) Better start learningaobut
and taking care of your body. Whatever you put into your body becomes you within 24 hours. Think
about it. Self-estrangement is a destructive, anti-life force that can only result in living death, that is,
dulled thinking, misery, confusion, meuroses, depression, tensions, drug abuse, vile tempers, irritabilities,
listlessness, lethargy, fatigue – to name a few. Sound like anybody you know? Thank about it. Start
