Doctors’ standings on micro flora (microbial ecosystem) damage from over-washing hands and surfaces. Washing our hands without replenishing the good micro flora on our body can result in our skin being vulnerable to pathogenic infections. It’s just basic microbiology. There are good micro-organisms and bad micro-organisms and, we need them both to have a balanced microbial ecosystem, otherwise the imbalance can cause devastating results, as these doctors explain.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that each year roughly 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die, all of food-borne diseases. Germs is the common term which refers to bacteria and viruses. Germs can live on every surface and therefore it can also be moved from surface to surface such as from a farm worker through a production
Only 1 out of 3 people clean their car interiors once a year. That leaves 66% of the car driving population with dirty car interiors. How many of those cars actually cleaned are truly clean, like disinfected clean? That’s a pretty sad statistic for something we spend so much time in, second to our home or work. As a matter of fact, AAA conducted a study which reveals that the
Finally, a scientific thread connecting bacteria and romantic love. Bacteria, especially probiotic (good) bacteria is our passion here at Team Prōtëkt but, it will always only stand in the shadow of our passion for love. Today is the day you discover that the two work together. These microscopic cupids or deal-breakers may be what’s turning you on or off. “We’ve found that microbes actually drive the majority of our how

Taking internal probiotics is really good for you, especially if you are a first timer. Your intestines are filled with trillions of bacteria of which there are some that are bad (pathogens) and the rest that are good which are called probiotics. The good bacteria is good and essential for your digestion. With the traditional American diet being so poor, most people often have poor bacteria in their guts (intestines).
Public restrooms bring shivers down our spines. They’re not always well-kept and they’re used by a lot of strangers throughout the course of a day, so, naturally they’re full of bacteria and germs. But what if you learned that germs like Salmonella, Staphylococcus, and E.coli are closer to you every day, right in your own home, in your back pocket, and under your purse? There are germs and viruses lurking
Washing Our Hands – We Are Doing It All Wrong It’s not that we are washing our hands right or wrong but we are not replenishing the good bacteria back onto our hands and anywhere else we clean. Stripping off all microbes, Good and Bad causes an ecological imbalance on the surface of anything we wash using chemical cleaners such as bleach, ammonia, harsh soaps and alcohol based antibacterials. The
We always say, “If I only had that when I was little.” Well, we here at Protekt external probiotics say just that about the latest kid-pop sensation to come from Scooter Braun, the 37-year-old pop svengali behind Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande. We were personal fans and friends of the genius behind the BeatBuds long before they were formed and I’ll be the first to say on the record that
Many people hear the word ‘dirt’ and think of something bad. Well, yes, we should remain hygienic minded, but in the grand scheme of things, dirt is exactly what we need to keep healthy and protected from bad pathogens. This is not just our opinion, it’s Mother Nature’s microbial principle just like the Law of Gravity. You see, dirt is full of bacteria just like our very own bodies. The
