Unfortunately, lifestyle factors can cause an unhealthy ratio, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alcohol<\/li>\n<li>Antibiotics<\/li>\n<li>Birth control pills<\/li>\n<li>High sugar and refined food consumption<\/li>\n<li>Pesticides<\/li>\n<li>Steroids<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In order to regain a healthy balance, it is often necessary to begin fighting the unhealthy bacteria with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Caprylic Acid Garlic<\/li>\n<li>Oil of Oregano<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8230;or a host of other bad bacteria fighters while aiding the digestive system with the addition of probiotics or friendly bacteria. It is important to remember to send in the bacteria fighters at opposite times of the day as when supplying beneficial bacteria. For example, if taking the probiotics in the morning, send in the bad bacteria fighters toward the evening.<\/p>\n<p>Consuming yogurt is often associated with restoring friendly bacteria. However, depending on its manufacturing process and length of shelf life, yogurt may not be the best option, especially if it is combined with fruit. Beneficial friendly bacteria can be found in tablets, capsules, powders, and even liquids. With so many forms available, it may be necessary to research or to seek advice of a nutrition professional to discover the type most compatible and beneficial for you.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #339966;\">LSA<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>LSA stands for Linseeds, Sunflower seeds and Almonds<\/p>\n<p>To make it use:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3 cups linseeds (flaxseeds)<\/li>\n<li>2 cups sunflower seeds<\/li>\n<li>1 cup almonds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mix and grind together until fine.
