Today's leading health experts recommend putting lots of good bacteria in our gut in the form of probiotic foods like yogurt and kimchi. They also advise consuming pre-biotic fiber, like vegetables to help keep the bacteria thriving. Finally, they warn against taking antibiotics and eating processed foods, which can reduce the good bacteria in our intestines.

A growing number of doctors tell their patients by following this plan, they can prevent our scariest diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's as well as our everyday aches and pains like bloating and diarrhea. 

Bacteria: The Master Key to Our Cells

Medical researchers spend countless hours and dollars discovering all kinds of secrets to a longer, better life. Dr. Raphael Kellman is among an increasingly large group of physicians who say the microbiome stands at the top of this list.

"The most important message that has come from science in the last decade, even less, maybe seven years, the most important message from all of the scientific research is this: the microbiome is essential and key to our health," he told CBN News.

In his book The Microbiome Breakthrough, Dr. Kellman explains why he feels everyone should do what they can to increase the amount and type of living bacteria in our gut.

"In my opinion, it's the most important way to prevent disease including cancer," he said.

Dr. Heidi Nelson, a Mayo Clinic microbiome researcher, agrees. She told CBN News the tiny ecosystem in our intestines demands balance.

"If you have a buildup of certain bad nutrients, let's take for example hydrogen sulfide, we know that some bacteria produce hydrogen sulfide and others remove it and use it," she said, "But if you have too much hydrogen sulfide that could, in some people, be the cause of the break of DNA that starts the chain reaction of colon cancer from developing."

Getting the right mix of bacteria in our gut also reduces one of the greatest causes of cardiovascular problems: inflammation.

"And that can cause high blood pressure that can affect the vessels in the body and that's all related to heart disease," Dr. Kellman said.

A healthy gut can also prevent bloating, gas and diarrhea. These problems make everyday life miserable for far too many people who don't realize they could end their suffering by improving their gut health.
