7 Probiotic life hacks [slideshow]
Reduce your risk of breast cancer
Some of the most recent — and most promising — news about probiotics reveals this simple supplement has the power to reduce your risk of developing breast cancer. So if you do just one thing to avoid breast cancer — take a daily probiotic.
That’s because your breasts, like your gut, are colonized by bacteria. And researchers have found that the breast tissue of women with breast cancer contains elevated levels of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis — two types of harmful bacteria that have been found to cause DNA damage that can lead to, you guessed it… cancer development.
The very same research found that Lactobacillus and Streptococcus — two kinds of health-promoting bacteria known to have anticarcinogenic properties — were much more plentiful in healthy, cancer-free breasts than in cancerous ones.
So if you’re not already boosting your gut, bone and even your brain health with a daily probiotic supplement, or probiotic foods like yogurt and sauerkraut — you most definitely should get started right away.
