Much more friendly flora available to the gut. Many people with stomach problems related to no friendly flora have been greatly benefited by it. Most if not all brands of commercially prepared yogurts are very dilute in their bacteria, if they have any at all. They use gelatin to make the yogurt thicker, as they do not want to take the time to let it set up right. I make my own Kombucha and yogurt. Otherwise you can buy expensive probiotics. But since this is something you would need all you life I suggest the less expensive way. Do some web searches, Kombucha is a life giving drink, cheap and easy to make. I know personally a woman who would have died, except someone gave her some of this to drink on her death bed in the hospital, and she fully recovered and is living now at the age of 80, over five years since. > Dear Mary, Kinda like what the old Inuit (Eskimos) lived on, huh?

Somewhere I read that constipation can be linked to being "cantankerous." In other words, it makes one "cranky." Native americans have been noted for their heavy meat consumption, and their war like activities. All the glorification of their wonderful lifestyle aside, I have native american blood in me, and I love the beautiful aspects of their cultures (I read SEVEN ARROWS, and remember, that in any culture the idealists are only about 1-5 percent of the population); the fact remains that Native americans killed each other off better than the invading Europeans could have ever done. Disease did them in pretty bad, and that does not speak well for their immune systems, which could have been affected by their heavy reliance on meat, and the inability for their cultures to sustain a farming lifestyle, due to invading enemies who would kill and rape and pillage those who stayed put in one place long enough to try to plant crops. They HAD to move around to keep their enemies from finding them, and to chase their meat sources. All in all, the europeans succeeded because they had a superior method of keeping the raping and pillaging down to a minimum (they did enough of it though), and a superior method of producing food, clothing, and shelter. I believe a lot of native peoples lived in harsh environments to evade the nasty dispositioned peoples who lived south. AND remember that they ate a lot of organ meats. They knew exactly which organs, the adrenals, on the animals, to divide evenly amongst the members of their groups, which they by necessity had to keep small, to keep from getting scurvy. Sorry to go so off on this subject. Our intestines are designed half way between vegetarian and meat eating. Which way to go? I find that the vegetarians I have known are much more peaceful than the meat eaters I am aquatinted with.
