You've taken acidophilus no doubt, or read of it's benefits for healthy intestinal balance. Did you know that one species, called Lactobacillus Plantarum is stronger than any other? Or that it is more stable and multiplies faster than the more commonly used L. Salvarus and other bacterium?

In addition, it is specifically indicated for those who suffer with oral or genital herpes. While herpes is not generally a life-threatening problem, it is damaging to self-image and can be quite painful. If you or someone you know suffers with herpes, this information will be of interest:

It has been know for some time now that supplementation with the amino acid lysine can help to reduce outbreaks of herpes and to shorten duration. Less known is the fact that lysine, present in L. Plantarum, is essential for good intestinal balance, in general. In addition, research performed at the University of Nebraska shows that L. Plantarum synthesizes a large amount of lysine. The balance between lysine and arginine, another amino acid, is critical for healthy immune system function. If the arginine balance is far higher than the lysine, then fungal forms, allergies and viruses like the herpes simplex viruses, are not kept under control by the immune system. On the other hand, keeping lysine levels high helps the immune system control allergies, viruses and fungals.
