Don Chisholm, the man behind the probiotics I use in my top bars and powders, has this to say about a recent Four Corners piece on probiotics:
There has been a lot of talk lately about how ineffective Probiotics can be as stated on the ABC Four corners story.
We agree with a lot of what they presented as there are a lot of companies using laboratory bred bacteria, of which many are patented, which means they are no longer a natural bacteria.
To get a patent you must have a unique difference, so therefore these bacteria are no longer a natural Probiotic and may be more prone to being less viable and the question has to be asked, “does your body recognise altered bacteria?”
Nuferm’s Probiotics are food based, not laboratory based and are actually Organic, plus they have been stressed to survive up to 55 degrees heat and temperatures as low as freezing, also will survive 12% alcohol.
We test every batch for pathogens and even test for Gluten free so you can be assured of the highest quality when purchasing from Nuferm probiotic foods.
The show on the ABC Four Corners stated information that relates to laboratory constructed Probiotics.
Laboratory bacteria or Synthetic bacteria function differently and are quite often not vital as they are not supported by a Prebiotic.
Nuferms probiotics are supported by Prebiotics so the lifespan of the product has been proven to last over 7 years.
As Scientist Rob Knight suggests we are more bacterial DNA than our own Human DNA, we are actually hosts for our bacteria.
That being said they must play a significant role to be a majority not a minority in our lives.
Bacteria are the only components our bodies cannot manufacture.
Therefore replacing your gut flora daily is vitally important to maintain immune, mental and overall health.

One of my wonderful clients writes:
Hello Tom,
Thank you for your newsletters!
I wanted to share with you some information, you may already be aware of it, but I thought it was exciting news.
I came across an article describing that scientists have known for some time that we have a code within our cells which has been inactive since birth. This code is important to our ‘immortality’ (increasing our life span to 200 years) – science believes that this code can be switched on again and that experimental treatments have taken place in humans (the Elite who can afford such treatment) that have been successful. The purpose of this code is to keep the length of our telomeres, which were described as the edges of the DNA structure; like the plastic on the end of shoelaces, from shortening or to even grow them back. The shorter the telomeres the more aging and degeneration takes place. The article described that disease would be eliminated from the body if the telomeres were intact. This is the original article I read: http://www.alsearsmd.com/Landing/MB_CC_Penicillin_Hospital_LP.html
The original article makes an offer to purchase the ‘secret’ and says the cost is significantly less than the original treatments as they want to make it available to the ‘average’ person. So I went further to look and see if anyone else was offering information on how to activate this important code.
I came across this article: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/05/09/the-nutrients-most-likely-to-let-you-live-to-be-much-older-than-100.aspx
This article suggest certain vitamins, minerals and amino acids that will activate this code in our cells and can regenerate, heal and significantly slow aging.
I made a list of the requirements from the article:
Astaxanthin (derived from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis)
Vitamin D (get out in the sun)
CoQ10 – Coenzyme Q10
Fermented foods & probiotics
Omega 3 Krill oil
Vitamin K2 is present in fermented foods, particularly cheese and the Japanese food natto, which is by far the richest source of K2.
Magnesium
Polyphenols:
-Resveratrol is found in grapes, and there are numerous products on the market containing resveratrol. I recommend looking for one made from Muscadine grapes, and that uses WHOLE grape skins and seeds, as this is where many of the benefits are concentrated.
-Cacao
-Green tea -preferably matcha green tea
Folate (aka Vitamin B9, or Folic Acid)
The ideal way to raise your folate levels is to eat plenty of fresh, raw, organic leafy green vegetables, and beans.
Please note that it is the natural folate from food that has been found to be beneficial. This may not be true for the supplement folic acid.
Vitamin B12 is found almost exclusively in animal tissues, including foods like beef and beef liver, lamb, snapper, venison, salmon, shrimp, scallops, poultry and eggs.
Curcumin — the active ingredient in the spice turmeric—acts both as an immune booster and potent anti-inflammatory.
Vitamin A
Warmest blessings in good health,
Ursula
Thanks Ursula! And here’s the link to a list of the ingredients in another anti-aging supplement:

And yes, 4 of them are in my top bars and NutriBlast already. Two of the others I have been taking myself and ordered some to put in my next batch that I make.

One reason I add some vitamin D powder to my top food bars and powders is that it boosts the immune system by 300-500%. Watch this video to learn more about it.
