Nightly
Essense ~ Probiotic Bacteria Overview
“If they be not inhabited, what a waste of
space!”
When
we were born our intestinal tracts were void or empty
of any bacteria. Breast-feeding during the first few
weeks establishes a base of friendly bacteria that coats
the entire tract. This good bacteria will fight off
and act as a defense against any harmful pathogens.
Studies have revealed that the mortality rates of infants
that do not breast feed are significantly higher. By
the time we reach adulthood, we will have approximately
3 ½ pounds of bacteria (this includes both good
and bad) in our intestines. Generally speaking when
the colon is slightly acidic (pH below 7.0) and no harmful
bacteria will proliferate or gain a foothold. If the
colon goes alkaline (pH above 7.0) the friendly bacteria
will no longer be able to protect your health. There
are a number of benefits that go along with these friendly
bacteria:
• Vitamin production specifically B2, B5, B6,
B12, folic acid, biotin and niacin.
• Decrease in lactose intolerance because of the
enzyme lactase.
• Lower cholesterol levels
• Defense against food poisoning
• Inhibition of candida, yeast and other fungal
forms
• Healthier looking and feeling skin
• Better absorption of foods because of the enzymes
they produce
• Increase in paristalsis (wave of contraction
that moves food through the colon). Normalizes bowel
movements.
• Increase in immunity through the secretion of
acids and natural antibiotics.
• Help maintain a good hormonal balance.
As we age the levels of friendly bacteria will lessen.
This is also true of your body’s production of
hydrochloric acid (HCl) which helps maintain a low pH
in the colon. As your body produces less HCl, the friendly
bacteria will have to compensate for that. There are
also a number of things that we can do to help preserve
the good bacteria:
• Avoid antibiotics at all costs (prescription
as well as those found in non-organic store bought meats)
• Stop drinking chlorinated water
• Do not use antacids or anti-inflammatory drugs
• Lower your stress level
• Don’t subject yourself to radiation or
chemotherapy
• Consume less alcohol and smoke less tobacco
• Eat more raw, enzyme-rich foods
Remember, that a properly functioning intestinal tract
is one of your body’s main defenses against illness.
Nightly Essense ~ Probiotic Bacteria Recommendations
Commitment:
"It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism.”
All
of the following ingredients are found in the Nightly
Essense product.
Bifidobacterium
bifidum- 3.0 billion CFU (Colony Forming Units).
These bacteria live predominately in the large intestine
and will consume old fecal matter, produce important
B vitamins, lower the pH (more acidic) in the colon,
protect and support the liver and stop the formation
of cancer-causing agents. pH range 4-7.
Bifidobacterium breve- 5.2 billion
CFU. Same functions as bifidum.
Bifidobacterium infantis- 7.2 billion
CFU. Same functions as bifidum.
Bifidobacterium longum- 1.2 billion
CFU. Same functions as bifidum.
Lactobacillus acidophilus- 7.2 Billion
CFU (Colony Forming Units).
These friendly flora live mainly in the small intestine
and will produce B-complex vitamins, digest milk sugars
(lactose), produce enzymes that will digest foods, create
natural acids and antibiotics (lactic acid, acidolin,
acidophilin, lactocidin, bacteriocin), reduce yeast
infections, reduce cholesterol levels, help lessen yeasts
such as Candida and prevent bad breath. pH range 4-7.
Lactobacillus brevis- 900 million CFU.
Same functions as acidophilus.
Lactobacillus bulgaricus- 900 million
CFU. Same functions as acidophilus.
Lactobacillus casei- 900 million CFU.
It is stable in acid and bile. It produces an antimicrobial
substance that inhibits pathogens like C. difficile
diarrhea in a pH of 4-7.
Lactobacillus helveticus- 300 million
CFU. Same functions as acidophilus.
Lactobacillus lactis- 300 million CFU.
Same functions as acidophilus.
Lactobacillus plantarum- 900 million
CFU. Originally found in foods such as sauerkraut and
sourdough. Works in the small intestine and eliminates
dozens of harmful pathogens such as E. coli in a pH
range 4-7.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus- 900 million
CFU. These bacteria are very powerful immune stimulators
and will boost the immune system’s effectiveness
by up to 300% in killing off foreign invaders. They
inhibit uropathogenic bacteria and thereby help prevent
recurrent urinary tract infections. pH range of 4-7.
Lactobacillus salivarius- 300 million
CFU. Dramatically increases energy levels by breaking
down proteins and its byproducts and making nutrients
more available. Its effectiveness against pathogenic
microorganisms is so powerful that symptoms of food
poisoning have been relieved within 30-60 minutes after
ingestion in a pH of 4-7
Streptococcus thermophilus- 900 million
CFU. It produces lactase enzymes, and lowers oxidation/reduction
potential in the intestine in a pH range 4-7.
Other
Recommendations
•
Eat more raw, organic enzyme-rich foods. This will greatly
assist the intestinal tract in facilitating proper absorption
and elimination of the some 50,000 tons of food that
will pass through it during an average life span.
• Eat more fiber like ground, organic flaxseed
meal. Put in juice or a shake.

Nightly Essense ~ Systemic Enzyme Overview
“Do not look back in anger or forward in fear
but around in awareness.”
Emerson
In order to receive the maximum benefits of enzymes
they should also be taken on an empty stomach (between
meals, bed time, etc.). Some of the benefits include:
• Increased circulation and energy levels
• Boosting the immune system (white blood cells-
WBC)
• Decreasing food and airborne allergies
• Removal of Circulating Immune Complexes (CIC)
• Revitalization of major organs (liver, kidneys,
colon, heart)
• Reduction of inflammation or swelling
• Speeds up recovery time from sickness or injuries
Let’s explain this in a little more detail. When
we eat cooked, processed foods over long periods of
time, proteins and fats are only partially digested
when they are absorbed into the bloodstream. Once in
the bloodstream, specific white blood cells recognize
them as foreign invaders and produce antibodies. These
are referred to as Circulating Immune Complexes (CIC).
Normally our white blood cells (WBC’s) are able
to engulf and break them down enzymatically. Because
of the excessive amounts of CIC’s the body is
unable to dispose of it fast enough, so it stores them.
These may end up as plaque attached to the inside of
the arteries, uric acid crystals in the joints or as
allergic reactions in the tissues or lungs. What happens
is that the most important part of our immune systems
(WBC’s) are pulled away from their job of protecting
us from real pathogens and used for the digestion of
our meals. This was conclusively proven by studies conducted
by Dr. Keutchakoff in 1930. He showed that there was
a dramatic increase in WBC’s after eating a cooked
food meal while there was no substantial increase in
WBC’s after a raw food meal. Another interesting
study showed that taking proteolytic (protease) enzymes
on an empty stomach actually increased white blood cell
activity between 700 and 1,300 percent. This also explains
why the body’s temperature will rise slightly
during an infection or injury to approximately 104 degrees.
Enzymes do their absolute best work at these temperatures.
This is why the body produces more white blood cells
which contain the highest concentration of enzymes in
order to get the job accomplished in the shortest period
of time. Taking aspirin or a similar product actually
impedes this process by bringing the temperature down
and prolonging the healing time. Enzymes are the workforce
in the body. Give them the support they need and they
will serve you without fail.
