As we grow, our bodies need a variety of nutrients, such as lysine, an essential amino acid, and we also need probiotics. So do we have a comprehensive understanding of these two nutrients? I think this is what many people want to know!
The role of lysine
1. Improve intelligence, promote growth, and enhance physical fitness.
2. Increase appetite and improve malnutrition.
3. Improve insomnia and improve memory.
4. Helps produce antibodies, hormones and enzymes, improve immunity and increase hemoglobin.
5. Helps calcium absorption, treatment and prevention of osteoporosis
6. Reduce blood triglyceride levels to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
The role of probiotics
Probiotics are a class of active microorganisms that are beneficial to the host. They are a general term for active beneficial microorganisms that are colonized in the human intestine and reproductive system and can produce exact health effects to improve the host's microecological balance and play a beneficial role.
Specific function
- Prevent or improve diarrhea: Poor eating habits or taking antibiotics can disrupt the balance of intestinal flora, which can lead to diarrhea. Supplementing with probiotics can help balance intestinal flora and restore normal intestinal pH, relieving diarrhea symptoms.
- Relieve symptoms of lactose intolerance: Lactobacillus can help the body break down lactose, relieve diarrhea, flatulence and other uncomfortable symptoms, and can be eaten with milk.
- Prevention of vaginal infections: Lactobacillus acidophilus in yogurt inhibits the growth of Candida albicans in the vagina. This was confirmed in a double-blind controlled trial in Europe. Female patients received 150 ml of yogurt containing a large amount of probiotics orally every day, resulting in a significantly lower incidence of vaginal infections than women in the placebo group.
- Boost human immunity: There is a very developed immune system in the gut. Probiotics can regulate low or high immune activity to a normal state by stimulating immune function in the gut. This immunomodulatory effect of probiotics is also believed to help fight cancer and suppress allergic diseases.
- Promotes intestinal digestive health: Probiotics can inhibit the reproduction of harmful bacteria in the intestines, reduce toxins, and promote intestinal peristalsis, thereby improving intestinal function and defecation.
- Reduce serum cholesterol: Europe's Caucasus mountains and Mediterranean coast are famous for their longevity. Locals often drink homemade yogurt and rarely suffer from diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity. A large number of scientific studies have confirmed that this is related to the rich probiotics in yogurt. These probiotics can reduce serum cholesterol levels. In addition, long-term supplementation of probiotics can also help prevent bone loss and prevent osteoporosis.
We all know the functions and roles of lysine and probiotics. Both have the function of improving immunity. Probiotics can promote intestinal absorption, and lysine can increase appetite and improve malnutrition. Therefore, the combination of lysine and probiotics works better.
