Taking Antibiotics? Take Probiotics
Posted by: Brooke | Posted on: May 28th, 2012 | 0 Comments
A recent meta-analysis examined a group of studies concerning the use of probiotics with antibiotics. Researchers found a clear effect in favor of probiotic use. In studies where people used probiotics for at least the duration of the antibiotic treatment, patients had a marked reduction in antibiotic associated diarrhea.
This was true even for patients who were not infected with the dread Clostridium Difficile. C. Difficile is an opportunistic bacteria that can colonize the gastronintestinal tracts of people who have taken antiobitics and is a cause of severe post-antibiotic diarrhea.

Diet and Blood Pressure
Posted by: Nutritionist | Posted on: May 27th, 2012 | 0 Comments
Do you eat protein with every meal? Well if you're concerned about elevated blood pressure, you should take a look at a new study that shows a relationship between them. Researchers took adults with higher than normal blood pressure and had them substitute some of their calories with either protein of carbohydrates.
They were given either three 20 gram protein shakes or 20 gram carbohydrate drinks every day for four weeks. Those who were in the protein group had significantly lower blood pressure than the carbohydrate group at the end of the study.
We here at Sundrops have always stressed the importance of protein at every meal for a variety of health reasons and this study just goes to show how vital it is to our health. Great sources of protein are lean red meats, chicken, fish and eggs. You could also try a high quality whey protein powder to make shakes like the ones in the study as well.
