THE FACTORY

It’s always fascinating when the entire class at school is taken to a factory to observe the assembly line work wonders together rolling the finished product off the line.

But there is one factory that is invisible and no one is able to observe the wonderful things these factories produce. Diagrams of these important life-saving productions can be found in text books. According to a medical study by Duke University the important job done by this small appendage called appendix has saved many lives. These interior Probiotic Factories are kept very busy protecting the healthy bacteria that populates the human digestive system.

A regular lube job is required daily to keep the factory in good working order to keep the wheels rolling smoothly. Olive oil and flax oil are both excellent oils to do this job. Trans-fats are hard for the system to handle and can create problems. This health promoting bacteria is cultivated in the appendix and used as a scavenger to remove toxins and putrefactive materials from the intestinal tract. It promotes proper immune function and efficient assimilation and synthesis of nutrients including the important B-complex vitamins. According to Simone Gabbay, RNCP, a nutritionist in Toronto, “The regular ingestion of cultured and fermented dairy products such as yogurt and buttermilk, help to recolonize health-promoting lactic-acid bacteria in the gut. Many vegetables including cabbage (available as sauerkraut) can be lactic-acid fermented. “If you no longer have your appendix, adding probiotic components to your diet becomes even more important. Appendix in or out – with probiotics, your health will win!” says Simone Gabbay, author of ‘Visionary Medicine: Real Hope for Total Healing.’ Her web site is: holistic-nutrition.com.
