Unbeknownst to many of us, a litany of bacteria is constantly at work in our bodies. This may prompt some people to run to the doctor, but these are your typical bacteria; they are essential for many of our day-to-day bodily processes. In the digestive tract alone, over 400 types of protective bacteria work to combat harmful ones. These food bacteria are referred to as probiotics.

The most common probiotics in the intestinal tract are lactic acid bacteria, which are also the five cultures found in yogurt. Another form of probiotics that most people are familiar with is yeast. Probiotics are commonly used to maintain normal bowel function, but there ability to combat other diseases and disorders is also being explored.
