I think u are missing my point. CS is an Anti- biotic. Anti bacterial. The large intestine has natural flora.( pro biotic ) to sustain good fuctioning of the large intestine. If you have no good flora in he intestine. Then MOST LIKELY you'll have what is called "leaky guy" That means that your intestine is leaking undigested protein into the blood. The good flora is what keeps this in check. Means healthy walls to prevent leakage but allow water to be absorbed back in.( To put things crudly).I had no idea I had it I would say I'm pretty healthy. I had a blood Microscopy done to indentify my condition. If you want to talk about substantiation.I don't believe there is anything to substantiate the use of CS either. Even though Silver therapy Has been used for thousands of years. I had stomach flu about a week ago..I took the pro biotic..and u guessed it. It was gone within 24 hours. Now I was experiencing flu symptoms for about 3 days before realizing I had it. I was told to do this so it wasn't phychosomatic. I couldn't believe it. It worked..So substantiation or not. My body is enough proof to me that it got rid of whatever nasty bacteria was in my intestine. I can only speak from my experience and from what homeopathic and nutritionist have shared with me. I would think their credibility is enough substantiation and my body as proof to validate this.

Human digestion is NOT bacteria dependent, period. The so-called "good flora" in the colon perform beneficial functions, I am certain, but those functions have NOTHING to do with digestion. The only thing absorbed from the colon back into the body is water. Links can be found in a previous email. In any case I cannot find any substantiation of whether or not probiotic bacteria ingested survive to the colon. Nor can I find any substantiation that common probiotic bacteria (L. acidophilus, B. coagulans, and many others) are or would be normal colon inhabitants of a truly natural, non-interfered with human colon. But if one wanted to populate the colon with these, a probiotic enema would probably do the trick, better than any input from the other end. I did find some sources that say that B. Coagulans will colonize the small intestine even. Since the human small intestine does not normally or naturally contain bacteria, harmful or "beneficial" at all, I don't know whether colonizing it with any bacteria is a very good idea. So far as I can find out to date, dumping "beneficial" "probiotic" bacteria into the human gut does not seem to be harmful, but that isn't quite the same thing as saying it is entirely harmless either. I drink a lot of CS from itme to time, and have been known to eat yogurt, and even to take a probiotic now and then. I seem to have come to no harm from either, but that is not definitive. sol Judydownmaine wrote: > I learned years ago on this list that to avoid damaging flora you > simply drink the CS on an "empty stomach" which seemed to be about a > half-hour before eating.
