hi guys dr. Burke here in this short

video I want to talk about the ten

benefits of something called lactic acid

okay now what is lactic acid lactic acid

is a waste product from a microbe it’s

probably one of the most friendly

microbes that you have living in your

body right now okay it’s called a

lactobacillus microbe and what this

lactic acid will do is it activates

enzymes in your colon to help you digest

it actually stabilizes blood sugars

that’s why people that are diabetics do

very well when they consume foods that

have are high in lactic acid also it

helps correct the pH of the colon and

the entire body without the pH correct

you’re not going to absorb mineral so

you’re not going to break things down

you can’t activate the enzymes so pH is

very very important also moving food

through the body as well increase the

digestion of food in general so 90% of

all of your digestion happens with these

friendly bacteria and if you don’t have

the right lactic acid or enough of that

lactic acid in your colon things don’t

break down unfortunately because they

don’t get activated so supports flora

what does flora flora is a friendly

group of microbes living in your gut

that actually give you benefit and you

support them in that you provide housing

you provide where they live now number

six immune support so the lactic acid

kills off and makes it very unfriendly

for the unfriendly bacteria so it helps

defend you against unfriendly microbes

okay

supports leaky gut so the this if you

have little holes in your digestive

system that are damaged this is very

very important healing that whole system

in supporting that

so these microbes will help heal that

leaky gut number eight

increasing metabolism in general if you

all have a slow metabolism and you have

poor digestion you’re not going to lose

weight so it just so happens that these

microbes actually do stimulate your

metabolism which is very very cool I’ll

have people that will start to eat

certain

foods that help their digestion and

start losing weight all the time from a

digestive angle not to stimulate the

glands but from a digestive point of

view also decrease unfriendly bacteria

and yeast so what happens is you have

unfriendly microbes mold yeast bacteria

in your gut well if you have enough

lactic acid you can actually counter

that and then it will increase your mood

and decrease anxiety why because there’s

a huge connection between the digestive

system in your brain and there’s several

inputs one is neurological which is

called a enteric system and the other is

just basically your your ability to

digest food and turn into like

neurotransmitters like acetylcholine

serotonin a lot of the serotonin in your

body is made by your gut and that helps

your mood helps depression anxiety so

there’s a huge connection with digestion

and mood and the three foods that I

recommend that you eat to actually start

supporting this lactic acid are kimchi

which is a fermented spicy cabbage from

Korea and there’s also and there’s other

countries also but pickles very very

beneficial in the lactic acid and

sauerkraut so it’s this is basically a

very inexpensive probiotic I think that

these foods are actually much more

powerful than taking a probiotic in a

pill so I would keep these in your

fridge in as much as you can start

including them in the diet and you will

start to build up the flora now there is

another one called kefir but I’m going

to create a separate video just on that

one product okay alright so if you have

any digestive problems bloating

constipation anything going on down here

these are the foods that you want to eat

and to get the benefit of the lactic

acid thanks for watching hey guys thank
