The Primal Defense Garden of Life is the leading whole food priobiotic that contains the Homeostatic® Soil Organisms (HSOs) commonly found in food that come from soil untreated by chemicals. This product contains an HSO Probiotic Blend that helps maintain a healthy and balanced internal body system. The 12 types of microorganisms contained in the blend help replenish probiotics removed during food's pasteurization, disinfection, and irradiation processes.

Probiotics are the 'good' bacteria in the intestines and they are essential to maintaining good health. These bacteria deprive undesired microorganisms of space and nutrients because they synthesize fatty acids and vitamins in order to support a healthy intestinal lining. The healthy intestinal tract will contain a ratio of 85 percent good organisms to the 15 percent of those that are potentially harmful.

Due to lifestyle and toxins from the environment, even people who appear healthy may have a poor ratio. Doing things such as drinking chlorinated water or taking antibiotics can change the body's microbial balance. Primal Defense can benefit those whose daily exposure decreases the percent of good bacteria in their intestines.

This supplement will allow the person taking it to experience a balance of both bad and good bacteria in their intestinal tract. There is also the added advantage of improving the overall health of the immune system. People do not realize how influential their intestinal health is to their overall well-being.

Most experts believe that probiotics are most effective when they are used within their natural food source. For this reason, Primal Defense is made from fermented whole foods. Because of the special fermentation process that Garden of Life uses, it enables key nutrients to be available and absorbed into the body when using Primal Defense.

When comparing Primal Defense to isolated probiotics, the competition is over just about as soon as it starts. Isolated probiotics do not contain whole foods and are not nearly as effective in promoting a healthy intestinal tract. There is also the fact that they must usually be refrigerated, which can be an inconvenience for many people and a simple mental mistake can lead to a wasted product.

The product comes in both powder and caplet forms, and both are easy to use. Caplet takers should start with one caplet per day and gradually increase dosage to three caplets per day. Caplets may be ingested with eight ounces of juice or water and should be taken on an empty stomach.. Those preferring the powder form should take one scoop per day for a few days taken with eight ounces of water or juice. Work up to one scoop three times per day and always take on an empty stomach.

It is a well-known fact that the use of herbicides, pesticides, and other chemicals change the balance of bacteria in the soil. Primal Defense probiotics is a product that incorporates an HSO Probiotic Blend to promote the balance and health of the body's internal systems. The beneficial microorganisms in bodybuilding supplements support normal immune system functioning.
