Probiotics is a general name for the entirety of \u2018good\u2019 bacteria that constantly reside in various areas of our body. Every such area is called a flora, whereas the greatest and richest flora is found in the gut. These flora areas are ecosystems consisting of \u2018families\u2019 of bacteria that coexist with their host (us) and actively assist its proper functioning. While most of us don\u2019t make the connection between probiotic bacteria and the throat, it\u2019s important to know that the activity of such bacteria isn\u2019t limited to the digestive system alone, since there\u2019s a rich bacterial flora in the oral cavity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blis is a probiotic that colonizes the oral cavity and the throat, thus creating a positive balance against pathogens, delaying their growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blis K-12\u2122 is a well-researched probiotic strain that had been discovered in New Zealand. For years, a research team directed by Professor John Tagg, had studied and analyzed children\u2019s saliva samples in order to find differences between them. They reached a breakthrough when the researchers had succeeded in isolating the specific strain from a healthy child, who hasn\u2019t had a sore throat for 6 years in a row. This special probiotic strain can be found in all of our mouths as part of the healthy oral flora, but it\u2019s only found in a high enough concentration in a small percentage of the population. According to research, its presence in the saliva contributes to the strengthening of the natural defense against disease-causing pathogens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During seasonal changes, there seems to be an uptake in illnesses causing a sore throat. Catching a sore throat is very easy; many infections are airborne and can pass from one person to another via respiratory droplets, such as a cough or a sneeze, from a sick person at home or in school. In kindergarten or school, it\u2019s enough to have one sick child that can infect everyone around them. There are individuals who are more prone to develop throat infections more often, and so their natural oral flora is highly important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most common bacteria in the oral cavity of both children and adults is Streptococcus Pyogenes (Strep A). This bacterium usually causes pharyngitis or tonsillitis, but in some rare cases can become violent and lethal. Failing to treat a bacterial throat infection can lead to complications, including heart valve damage. Usually, treatment consists of antibiotics, which harm the pathogens, but also the \u2018good\u2019 bacteria in the flora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The unique strain Blis K-12 is also a part of the Streptococcus group, but is a friendly and desired probiotic bacterium. It inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria, especially those from the Streptococcus group, which is known to cause tonsillitis, ear infections, bad breath, and cavities. Taking a nutritional supplement containing this specific and well-researched probiotic Blis K-12\u2122 can help strengthen the natural flora in the oral cavity, and can be used either at the end of an antibiotic treatment, or as a routine preventative treatment for the strengthening of the natural defense against pathogens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blis K-12 has received FDA approval as GRAS and is completely safe to use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
