Is it healthy/okay to take lactobacillus acidophilus capsules if you don't have health problems?

Is it healthy/okay to take lactobacillus acidophilus capsules if you don't have health problems?I was wondering because I heard lactobacillus acidophilus is only one of the good probiotics in your digestive system, so I don't want to throw anything out of balance. Then, I've also heard that rats given probiotics live a lot longer, but then maybe they get sick easier than us and can't see a doctor.

So I was wondering, if the only health problem that I'm aware of is acid reflux, would I receive any health benefits from taking a daily supplement? Would it cause any problems, or inbalances of other probiotics in my system?

Its good for you and digestion. Never not good especially with the foods we eat time to time. It nautural and its fine.

Taking acidophilus probably won't hurt anything, but it probably won't help anything either, unless you're having a digestive problem that it might help resolve. Taking acidophilus daily might not be a great idea, but I don't see any harm in taking it once a week or so.

Digestive Enzymes- Restore Your Digestive Health

There are more than 3000 digestive enzymes in your body—lipases, proteases, and amylases—to help break down fats, proteins, fibers, and carbohydrates. Prior to the turn of the century, most people got the enzymes they needed for digestion from raw or traditionally canned foods. These enzymes would then work with the enzymes in the body to help digest your food and give your body the nutrients it needs. Since then, modern large-scale canning and food processing methods actually require excessive heat to kill off enzymes in food in order to preserve the foods. Without these needed enzymes from food, the body has to rely entirely on its own enzymes for digestion. Add to that a high-stress lifestyle and the tendency to overeat and eat on the run and you've overwhelmed your digestive system. You may expereince indigestion, constipation, bloating, and acid reflux following meals—clear signs your body isn't digesting food properly or absorbing needed nutrients. Jigsaw Health Essential Blend Digestive Enzymes provide one of the most powerful and comprehensive digestive enzymes on the market today.
