Kefir Grain Your stomach is not just a waste disposal system or plumbing that flows to your colon and out of your body. Your stomach and intestines are like a garden. They grow good bacteria and bad bacteria. Like a garden you want healthy plants (good bacteria)  and few weeds (bad bacteria). Fermented foods are a rich source of probiotics, like kefir, yogurt,  fermented bread, pickles, and the ginger bug all will provide your system probiotics to keep you healthy.

Probiotics are the good bacteria in your system, if your immune system is strong and you are eating properly the good bacteria or probiotics will thrive but that's not always the case.

So if you take probiotics on a regular basis to replenish your system there will  be more of them in your system. Just like if you are planting plants in the garden there will be no room for the weeds to take hold. Your probiotics also need food just like the plants in your garden to grow strong and healthy. Prebiotics are food for the probiotics in your system, think of them as fertilizer  for your system.  Prebiotics are whole grains, whole fruits and vegetables.

Now if you are taking antibiotics it will wipe out all bacteria in your system much like if you put Round-Up on your garden. Nothing will be living in your system. So if you have taken antibiotics you need to replant your digestive system with good probiotics to keep your system healthy.
