The intestine – the super-organ with numerous tasks

The intestinal bacteria have long been known as helpers in the digestive tract. These produce enzymes. The production of these enzymes, which break down fiber into individual parts in order to be better absorbed by our body, are extremely important. Among other things, microbes also act as training partners for our immune system in order to properly develop the body’s defenses. The large number of these bacteria prevent troublesome pathogens from spreading in the digestive tract. An intact intestinal flora is important for the functioning of the intestinal barrier. It controls which substances from the body get into the intestine.

The tasks of the intestine are so diverse that the list of diseases is growing steadily. This list includes primarily inflammatory intestine diseases, diabetes, obesity, multiple sclerosis and depression, however also skin diseases.

In addition to the family disposition and sufficient exercise, a balanced diet is the most important point for a healthy intestinal flora. Take care of your intestines with five small servings of fruits and vegetables, with fiber and enough liquid (at least 1.5l – 2l) in the form of water, tea or juice, because a healthy intestine is less vulnerable to pathogens and strengthens your immune system.

Many doctors and pharmacists suggest RISOMED® to balance your intestinal flora.
