OT - KOMBUCHA EXPERIENCE / Cocobiotic from BED

[Guest guest]

HI Goran from Sue,

As I understand.. Kombucha is a fermented product.

So are the probiotics Donna Gates has on her www.bodyecology.com.

( Some people don't do well ingesting fermented foods like apple cider vinegar

and Kombucha & Cocobiotic or Kefir---UNTIL ---they have been cleared..

(due to an intolerance or allergy to fermentation in itself )

like I USED to have... (no longer since I cleared it with EFT)...

Even though grains are used ----the Fermentation itself ----actually changes that problem.

Donna Gates addresses that grain question below:

"Yes, it's true, several of our drinks are fermented using grains that contain gluten (Innergy-Biotic is our gluten-free probiotic liquid); HOWEVER,

FERMENTATION RESTRUCTURES this ( GLUTEN ) protein and our probiotic liquids actually HELP your body DIGEST gluten.

Body Ecology's fermented Innergy-Biotic is a gluten free performance drink that gives you powerful probiotics and vegetarian protein for a lasting energy boost. Fermented millet, quinoa, and mung beans make this a drink full of grain loving bacteria to help you digest all of your food more efficiently. Try Innergy-Biotic today!

Here's how:

During fermentation, the microflora in our probiotic liquids are grown upon the grains and actually "digest" these grains during the fermentation process. Research shows that fermentation actually breaks down the toxic peptides in gluten, effectively neutralizing them and making these drinks officially gluten free and safe for celiacs and those with gluten insensitivity.

Think of the microflora in our probiotic liquids as "grain loving," since this is how they grew in the fermentation process. Therefore, when you drink them, the microflora thrive in your intestines, where they can help you digest grains, gluten and other foods.

My goal in creating Body Ecology's line of probiotic liquids was to provide a way to introduce grain-loving bacteria into your intestines, along with key beneficial bacteria and yeast to boost your immunity and overall health.

While our probioitic liquids test within the limits to be LABELED gluten free, I chose to list gluten in our labels as a way to educate the public about recovering digestive health with the help of grain-loving bacteria.

Right now, fermentation is a forgotten art of our ancestors, but it is gaining popularity as Body Ecology, other natural health enthusiasts and mainstream medicine rediscovers probiotics.

In fact, probiotic liquids are a premier way to deliver probiotics into your system and heal your digestion.

Why Do Your Probiotic Liquids Contain Gluten?

Current research suggests that for persons with celiac disease and gluten-sensitivity the maximum safe level of gluten in a finished product is less than 0.02% (200 parts per million) and possibly as little as 0.002% (20 parts per million). Indeed, for a product to be labeled as "Gluten-Free," Codex Standards allow for up to 200 parts per million gluten content.

Although you see wheat and rye lower down in the ingredient lists for Coco-Biotic and Dong Quai, and wheat, rye and oats for BE Wholegrain, NO gluten was detected in laboratory tests for Coco-Biotic, only 6 parts per million was detected in lab tests for Dong Quai, and only 7 parts per million was detected in lab tests for BE Wholegrain (which is all WAY below the rigorous 20 parts per million or less threshold the FDA is pushing for to label a product "Gluten-Free.")

Aside from the fact that there are minimal amounts of these grains in Coco-Biotic, Dong Quai, and BE Wholegrain, the fermentation process actually breaks down the gluten; gluten strains normally bind in the body, but fermentation breaks it down so it won't! That means those with gluten-sensitivities may actually have their digestive systems improved and long-term their gluten-tolerance raised by these products!"4a.
