Why I Love #NuCulture Probiotics – It’s a Gut Feeling!

June 24, 2016 By Debra Pearlstein 19 Comments

This post was made possible by iConnect and AlternaScript. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.

In life, it’s all about balance — whether we are balancing family and work, balancing mind body and spirit, balancing in the yoga tree pose or balancing our digestive systems.

Our gut is a delicate balance of microorganisms that can be out of balance due to diet, stress, environment and medication. This balance affects our health, mood, and quality of life.

While most of these microorganisms are helpful, when the bad bacteria outnumber the good, we can get unwanted side effects including decreased energy, bloating and digestive issues.

This is where Probiotics or friendly bacteria fit in. To help rebalance the digestive system, supplements like NuCulture by Alternascript reintroduce specific bacteria strains into your gut to crowd out the problematic ones. NuCulture is the new kid on the block, launched on June 6th, 2016. NuCulture also contains prebiotics which are food for the probiotics.

NuCulture is the probiotic of the future, containing 5 probiotic strains, extensively studied clinically and formulated to effective amounts of colony forming units (CFU) per dose. It combines its probiotic strains with powerful prebiotic strains in a patented, delayed-release capsule. Unlike some others, NuCulture survives passing through the acidic environment of the stomach and arrives intact in your GI tract to optimize its effectiveness.

Recent research has called the gut the “second brain” because it houses over 100 million neurons, more than is found in your spinal cord! These neurons influence neural, immune and endocrine function. In fact, there are over 30 neurotransmitters found in your gut as well. I find that utterly fascinating. No wonder when my stomach is upset, I’m upset! It really casts a pall over all my activities and influences my mood.

I recently tried NuCulture for a few weeks. I am a big proponent of Probiotics and have been for over 10 years. They are a major part of my wellness routine.

The NuCulture capsules are small and easy to swallow. You only need one a day. My experience has been very pleasant. No digestive issues and my tummy which occasionally has a tendency to bloat has been quiet and flat (which is great for summer especially). My energy is consistent throughout the day without any sugar cravings or major ebbs, and I feel a sense of balance overall.  I’ve had no sinus issues and my immune system is strong.

Now, of course, I can’t attribute all of this to NuCulture, but, I do believe that the gut influences the entire ecosystem of the bodymind. I also believe that the occasional digestive issues I’d been having are now calm.

I’m really glad that Probiotics have become so popular. I’ve studied holistic health for many years and was always suggesting them to family and friends, especially when they were taking antibiotics or had stomach issues, gas or nausea.

What I find particularly wonderful about Alternascript, the healthcare company behind NuCulture is their genuine care for the customer. In May 2013, Lucas Siegel and Matthew Piskorz founded the company with one simple purpose: “to specifically design products that actually work and are accessible to everyone.” Lucas and Matthew wanted a change from often overpriced supplements that didn’t work, so they found an alternative — an AlternaScript.

So, would you like to try NuCulture for yourself? NuCulture, along with all AlternaScript products, can only be purchased through a subscription through the AlternaScript website. They do also offer free trials of their products. You can check it out here.

Probiotics are found in yogurt, sauerkraut,  miso soup, kefir and other foods, so you are not introducing anything foreign into your body with Probiotic supplements. They enhance and support the beneficial bacteria that line your digestive system and improve the absorption of essential nutrients in foods optimizing overall health.

I have had no side effects from taking Probiotics, except energy and calm. I love Probiotics and, if I could, I’d shout it to the world.

It’s a gut feeling!

Culturelle – ProBiotics for a healthy digestive and immune system

August 19, 2012 By Debra Pearlstein 11 Comments

Bacteria are interesting organisms. Our bodies depend upon bacteria, and, for a healthy body and digestive system, it’s important to have the proper balance of both good and bad bacteria. If the balance becomes disturbed, that’s when illness can occur. This can happen from taking too many antibiotics or from stress as well as many other reasons.

To increase the good bacteria which help our gut and our immune system with a healthy balance, it’s great to take Lactobacillus acidophilus (found in yogurt and also in Culturelle).

Good bacteria protect our skin, while keeping germs and bad bacteria out. They also help protect our immune and digestive systems.

This is where boosting the good bacteria comes into play with probiotics. Yogurt and tablets or capsules can be used to change or improve the intestinal bacterial balance to improve health.

I learned this long ago when trying to boost my immune system and keep any stomach issues at bay. Way back when, I started using Culturelle and had great results. I had more energy, less colds and flu and definitely less stomach issues. I’ve taken it daily ever since and try to always have a backup package on hand so I won’t run out. I can tell the difference if I don’t have it.

I love taking something that is so natural, really makes sense to me, and works so well.

Now with the kids going back to school, supporting their immune systems is even more important.

Tips I’ve found include: Vitamin C from orange juice, getting enough sleep, washing hands – especially before eating, getting exercise, and eating more healthy foods. Another wonderful supplemental idea is Kids’ Culturelle.

Culturelle® Kids Probiotic Chewables is the #1 pediatrician recommended brand of probiotic supplements for children. It’s the only probiotic supplement brand in the U.S. containing 100% Lactobacillus GG, one of the most scientifically studied probiotic strains for digestive health and immune support specifically for growing children.

It helps restore the natural balance of good bacteria in the digestive tract to help alleviate occasional digestive upset as well as support a child’s own natural defenses.

 Culturelle Kids Probiotic Chewables is for children weighing 50 to 100 pounds and comes in a great tasting sugar-free berry flavor.

Another great product is Culturelle® Kids Probiotic Packets. Culturelle Kids Probiotic Packets contain an easy-to-mix powder which you can simply add to cool liquids or foods like applesauce or pudding with no unpleasant taste.

It’s perfect for children weighing 25 to 50 pounds. Culturelle Kids Packets are easy to take, flavorless, and 100% dairy & gluten free.

And, of course, for adults, or kids over 100 lbs. there is regular Culturelle.

You can find Culturelle online at Amazon and at many other sites and also at most drugstores, health food stores and markets. Just check the easy online locator.

I’ve used this product for years for myself and my family and it gets a 5 star rating from me. I wouldn’t be without it.

Check out Culturelle’s website for special offers and product coupons.
