Check this out: Keybiotics | Video

Could America possibly sink any lower than this? (well, we know it will at some point, with the end of the world on it's way and all.) What are your thoughts?

i took the time to watch the whole thing. Interesting history there. I recently saw a similar video with an amazing sales pitch like this and have been buying it: Essential Flora-7 (Marine Essentials) which also says it has the 7 special forms of bacteria that everyone needs. It also has a "patented" coating that can get all the way to your intestines.

Needless to say, it didn't do any of these magical things for me, but i've been taking probiotics for nearly 2 solid years faithfully every single day. But this is just part of the puzzle if you also have gluten problems or adrenal fatigue as well, which i might have too. I think i'm going to go back to the cheaper refrigerated probiotics i used to get at the health food store instead. $50 bucks a month is A LOT!!

It is true i don't crave a lot of garbage food though...even when i'm not on a particular "diet," but i think it may be because i don't eat a lot of that type of food anymore anyway. not sure which.

Ahhh... when I saw the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about politicians.

Probiotics exist naturally in yogurt and other fermented foods, so not limited to just America. And I have been taking them for years now (not everyday) and they have helped greatly with digestion, colon issues, and systemic candida.

Wow. I'm still watching the video (I paused because I noticed some bumps on the baby's leg and to order some probiotics), I'm not entirely shocked at what I'm seeing, but then again, I am at the same time.

I always thought that fructose was sugar derived from a plant, not basic junky white sugar.

Does anyone know if getting the organic 100% pure sugar is any different, or just spending more money on the label? Thanks

From what i've been reading, I believe sugar is sugar and your body doesn't know the difference where it comes from. (although high fructose corn surup is much worse, chemically speaking) Even eating too much fruit in one sitting can send your blood sugar soaring.

Pure honey right from the hive is the best.
if you don't have access to this, you can buy
'unfiltered-uncooked' in the grocery stores.

this is also an excellent help for allergies,
especially if you can find a hiver/keeper in your
neighborhood.

it's the best sweetner, a Biblical gift,
also pure fruit juices are good for a
lighter sweetner.

It really isn't probiotics in a pill, and our need for that, it is an entirely new way of thinking. God didn't create out bodies for homogenization, freezers, pressure cookers, steel refineries, refrigerators and all we use to change food. Our bodies are made to work with food that hasn't been adjusted by all those things. Plain milk could sour, not rot. Housewives pounded grain. Vegetables fermented. People used to know how to do those things, I've tried to learn and it is HARD. But those foods and our bodies work together, adjusted food isn't made to work with our bodies.

I like my chicken, for instance, cheap, deboned, frozen, tender with fat, and easy to cook. That is not the chicken God designed my body for, it is only a few years of the world that has had that chicken. I just found out that even having the bones and skin taken out and used elsewhere is ruining the chicken for my body==it needed what was in those things they use for something else. It is a bummer.

Every fall I and my husband made up a crock of sauerkraut, we were so proud of our pioneering spirit When we were done we canned it in the pressure cooker to preserve it. By canning it we destroyed all the probiotics and took all the life giving properties of the sauerkraut away.

Good video...I love watching the artist draw! Of course, it's trying to sell you something at the end. But I do think a good quality probiotic is a very good idea.

It definitely is true that we can't expect 'the experts' to take care of us. Much of their science and intent is profit motivated. Doctors and drug companies don't make money on healthy people. And the food industry makes more money by producing junk foods with cheap and 'modified' ingredients.
