BAM

Hello everyone,

I just received my order of beneficial-active micro organisms from the hawaiiorganics.net site advertised in the Dot Connector. I really would like to get my wife and I started on a daily dose, but I can't seem to find any information telling me how much to take, how often, do you just drink it as is, should it be kept refrigerated, etc. The site only talks about the benefits and describes what they are, and the literature that came with the order is simply a copy of what's on the site.

Does anyone know anything about these issues, or where I could find this info?

Thanks.
 
Hi mocachapeau,

BAM was discussed [link removed].

Note that the link is to the members section of the FOTCM and therefore it will not work for non members. :(
 
Hi Vulcan,

I tried the link but it didn't work for me. I am a FOTCM member so I'm kind of curious why it wouldn't work. If there are still areas of the members section that are off limits to me, where can I find out what the criteria are, and if I may be neglecting something?
 
Hi mocachapeau,

My apologies. :-[ That topic was started for a specific reason. I've posted the relevant information that you might need below.

Using BAM or "Beneficial Active Micro-Organisms" can help re¬balance and rebuild the Gastro-Intestinal tract system, which is one of the key elements of establishing a healthier metabolism and prolong your life. Many traditional and alternative doctors declare that; "death starts in the colon". If this is true, then the prolonging of your life starts when you rebalance and rebuild your colon.

The cure would be Bam, not antibiotic chemical medicines. What if given the chance to "fortify" your immune system to help ward off detrimental viruses, germs and bacteria, would you participate? What if you could rebuild your digestive tract into th~ efficient system it was meant to be and keep every organ in your body operating in tip top condition? What if you could substantially increase the nourishment you get from the foods you eat? What if you could do all this, reduce the incident of diseases and add more useful and valuable years to your life. Would you want to participate?

Research indicates that all the above what ifs are possible and that your system can be guided back through a "natural/organic cure" or a Pro¬Life. Using anti-biotic and chemical cures, which destroy friendly bacteria, literally meaning regressive life.

The average adult has approximately 4 pounds of bacteria in the colon. Over 400 species of micro-organisms make up these 4 pounds, of which the human gastro-intestinal tract contains about 850/0 good bacteria and 15% bad bacteria. Today, most of us have exactly the opposite ratio of "good" versus "bad" bacteria. What happens when the bad bacteria overwhelms the good? The answer is, putrefaction. Most people have this "putrefaction" lining their colon. This sludge like rotting condition is a layer of undigested food that's the perfect home for many dangerous pathogens such as yeast, molds, fungi, parasites and viruses. This rotting "sludge" is not only a breeding ground for dangerous pathogens, but it also prevents good nutrients and positive nutritional values from entering the blood stream. If it is possible, to promote and increase good bacteria to a better balanced ratio within the system, you can gain better health and greater resistance to illness and disease for life. Problems will definitely occur when "bad pathogenic bacteria" overruns the friendly organisms.

The food that we eat first enters the stomach and then enters a long coiled tube called the small intestine, where 90% of what you eat is processed by your digestive system using various enzymes and hydro acid to break down your food so it can be absorbed into the bloodstream the time it reaches the small intestine, your food has been reduced to a mash known as "Chyme". Bile salts produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder, help to break down proteins and fatty acids. Lining the small intestine are finger-like structures called "villi". The molecular particles of the digested food pass into the cells lining the villi and are taken up by tiny blood capillaries, transferred to the hepatic portal vei carried into the liver. Digested food substances are delivered to other cells in the body to support life giving cellular activities.

Within 8-10 hours of eating, the food has passed through the small intestine and is mostly digested. It then enters the large intestine and for the final digestive phase and eventual (hopefully) elimination or" movement". Through the "ileocecal valve", chyme is passed into the colon from the small intestine. The chyme consist of; indigestible food substances, secretions from the liver, pancreas and small intestine and water. A constant sloshing effect finishes the digestive process of the chyme.

Under mass peristalsis or contraction the feces is pushed toward the rectum where it is eventually eliminated by the body. When the colon is healthy, it is swarming with billions of friendly micro-flora. These "friendly" bacteria help digest portions of the fecal mass and throw off valuable nutrients like vitamin K and B. The time it takes for chyme to turn into feces and travel to the rectum would depend on the amount of roughage and water content. Bulkier feces travel faster.

Where people experience trouble with their bowel movement is when they eat too much processed foods. These types of food lack in fiber and bulk and tend to be sticky like glue. The result of eating too much of processed, canned or foods heavy in preservatives, is that they do not easily and make a quick transit to the bowel. Instead, these foods tend to accumulate and start to rot and ferment within the colon walls and cal staggering range of direct and indirect health related problems. Your digestive system needs to be able to break down and absorb your food efficiently and effectively. Once you are able to accomplish this, your elimination (bowel movement) will also improve and you will enjoy the benefits of 2-3 bowel movements everyday or one per meal.

Because American diets’ consists of lots of processed and fatty foods, constipation is the number one digestive disorder. The undigested food in the colon simply never gets eliminated and keeps accumulating and rotting. More food is then consumed before the cycle of elimination has been fully and adequately engaged. Therefore, the plumbing gets backed up and the use of laxatives to "blast open" the pipes never fully resolves the problem because the undigested, rotting food is already caked on to the walls of the small and large intestines as well as the colon. Harmful bacteria, candida, parasites and other dangerous pathogens will breed in this toxic sludge buildup. Layer upon layer will continue to build up and become very thick, as to leak out of the intestinal walls and pollute the blood and lymph glands, which feed the body and major organs.

The typical adult American diet leads to the sluggish bowel function that causes accumulation of partially digested and over fermented food residues in the intestine, especially in the colon. For many people, after years of poor diets the results are; chronic and/or intermittent constipation or a mixed symptom of alternating diarrhea and constipation. Abnormal pockets called "diverticula" develop in the wall of the colon as well. These diverticula can become impacted with toxic fecal residues and can lead to an inflammatory condition known as diverticulitis, a painful and sometimes life threatening illness. Many people who develop diverticulitis with abscess formation will require partial or subtotal removal of their colons.

A body that is burdened with toxic substances loses the ability to ward off toxins. As the colon becomes increasingly "toxic", proper oxidation cannot take place in the tissues. Without proper oxygenation, we lack the energy and a tired body continues the downward spiral, so to speak. People with poor digestion are routinely and literally "sick & tired".

Taking all the antacids for heartburn or all the laxatives you want for constipation, none of these "temporary" remedies will actually cure or solve chronic digestion problems. In fact, they will only further complicate the problem and make it worst. The only remedy to radically improve any digestive disorder is to increase the quantity and quality of the good microorganisms and reduce the quantity of the bad bacteria and pathogens.

(BAM) "Beneficial Active Micro-organisms"

It is essential to understand that the human body contains billions of good and bad bacteria (micro-organisms) and that consuming billions of good bacteria or BAM can be beneficial to the body. Why is this? Because only "good bacteria" can help you break down, absorb and ultimately eliminate old, fermenting/rotting food called putrefaction. Friendly microflora will alter the environment in which :'bad bacteria" thrive. This "change" is to restrict the bad bacteria's receptor sites so they cannot reestablish themselves. BAM function's in three key ways to ensure your good health:

1) The prevention, penetration and growth of harmful bacteria, yeast, viruses, molds and other parasites.

2) Promote better immunity system and better immune response.

3) Stimulate the function of the entire digestive system.

Other important health benefits of BAM are:

- Improve the body's ability to digest by producing the enzyme, lactase.

- Improve the body's ability to digest and absorb nutrients from food.

- Improve the bowel function and decrease transit time.

- Detoxify the gastro-intestinal tract and help to prevent colon cell damage
.
- Decrease the level of cholesterol and reduce the threat to the circulatory system.

- To manufacture some of the essential B vitamins including B-3, B-6, folic acid and biotin.

- Maintain control over potentially toxic yeast.

- Produce lactic acid, which enhances the digestion of food as well as improving the environment for friendly bacteria and making it unsuitable for invading bacteria.

- Attack bad bacteria and replace with good bacteria involved in "infections and infectious diseases" causing natural healing process.

As far as dosages go it's recommended for normal use as a probiotic drink about 2 ounces a day, if you have more serious problems such as IBS you can drink 2 ounces 3 times a day preferably not on a empty stomach. It can be purchased in any size you would like, the small spay bottles I carry with me when traveling never know when your going to encounter those pesky germs. :mad:
 
Thanks Vulcan, I appreciate it.

Is there anything I need to know about why some things are off limit to me? Or is there nothing for me to be concerned about?

I know I haven't been participating as much as usual, lately, and I don't want to be neglecting or abusing anything.
