About Bacteries
Like everything else in nature, bacteria consume material to grow and multiply. They also produce by-products, or waste. Some of these by-products can benefit the bacteria and their environment. Other by-products are regarded as defense mechanisms. These defense molecules try to protect the bacteria from harm-even if it means destroying their world, which in some cases is us!

Bacteria are everywhere

Consider this: No matter how hard we try to get rid of them, there are more bacteria in and on you than there are people on this earth. The intestines alone have about 100 trillion bacteria, which outnumbered all the cells in the human body 10 to 1.

But don't be too worried. You've been living with them since before you could walk or talk. Most don't stay around that long. It has been estimated that humans excrete a couple of trillion bacteria through feces every day. That's about one-third of our fecal matter.

There are more than 400 species of bacteria, many of which share your internal space every second of every day. It is quite obvious that the sheer number of bacteria can affect us profoundly. They metabolize, reproduce, and colonize just like the cells that make up our bodies. Many produce byproducts and substances that can benefit us. They can mutate or change in response to their environment and bodies and unfortunately, some can produce substances that are not good for us.

However, you will discover that it goes both ways-not only do the bacteria influence us, but we also influence our internal bacterial population. It's only when we ignore them-or ignore that they even exist that we can get into serious trouble.

We may be the underdogs, but we can still conquer the bad bacteria, and keep and enhance the good bacteria.

Yes, the numbers are overwhelming. And yes, the magnitude of bacteria is unfathomable. However, there is no need to throw in the towel. As with most compelling battles, there are good guys and bad guys. The bad bacteria can lead to a variety of illnesses. The good guys are critical for your good health.

 

Symptoms or signs indicating Gut/Bacteria Issues

Digestive Issues
	Gas Bloating Heartburn/acid reflux Diarrhea Constipation Irritable Bowel Syndrome Irritable Bowel Disease (including Crohn’s and Ulcerative colitis)
Mental Issues There might be a link between gut (bad) bacteria and the following issues:
	Depression and anxiety Brain fog OCD (Obsessive-compulsive disorder) Autism
Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies If you are deficient in any of the below (your medical doctor can tell you), you might have an unhealthy gut.
	Vitamin D Vitamin K Vitamin B12 and B7 Magnesium
Antibiotics
	Antibiotics clean out bad bacteria, but they also get rid of many of the good bacteria in the gut and those are essential for your health. Antibiotics are unable to discriminate between both good and bad bacteria.
Chronic, Unmanaged Stress
	Unmanaged stress raises cortisol levels, which can stop the gut from working properly. If you have been stressed for the past few months (or years, or decades) but have not acted to manage your stress, you are more likely to have an unhealthy gut.
Skin Conditions It is now a known fact that many skin conditions have a lot to do with an unhealthy gut. Balancing your gut bacteria might help solve such skin issues.
	Acne Rosacea Psoriasis Eczema
Autoimmune Diseases If you have to deal with any of the health issues listed below you might be able to make your symptoms go away by simply taking care of your intestinal flora.
	Hashimoto’s Rheumatoid arthritis Inflammatory bowel disease
