Los Angeles, CA – December 12, 2018 – The CDC estimates that 1 in 6 Americans, or 48 million people, get sick from foodborne diseases each year. For those who want to protect their digestive system from foodborne pathogens, renowned health and wellness expert, Donna Gates, is excited to announce that Body Ecology has created a phages product designed to help prevent the harmful effects of bacteria overgrowth, like E. coli.
Containing a high quality combination of four of the most well-researched phages, bacteriophages like those in EcoPhage exclusively attack gut pathogens and leave healthy gut flora completely in tact – cleaning up the gut, urinary tract and birth canal to restore order and promote a healthy immune system. In fact, research shows that the genome of the bacteriophage, T4, for example, has the genes to kill pathogenic E. coli.
Phages act quickly, and are effective against antibiotic-sensitive and antibiotic-resistant bacteria and disrupt bacterial biofilms that can disable treatment from occurring. Pioneered in Europe before the advent of antibiotics, bacteriophages like EcoPhage selectively target specific, harmful bacteria while leaving beneficial microbes to flourish. This is one of the most relevant tools to treat bad bacteria since the good bacteria in your gut naturally limits the growth of other harmful bacteria.
Unlike other prebiotics, the phages in EcoPhage work quite differently. As the phages kill the bad bacteria, they leave more room for the good bacteria to remain and colonize, and even encourage the growth of the most important bacteria like bifidus, lactobacillus, and the bacillus bacteria. When the bad bacteria explode, the nutrients inside the cell walls become food for the beneficial bacteria.
The phages travel into the small intestine and immediately recognize any pathogenic bacteria living where they’re not supposed to be, and it attacks. Attaching itself to the cell wall of the bad bacteria, it then punches a hole in its outer membrane, and injects its own DNA right into the bacteria.
The phage virus comes alive at that point, eats some of the nutrients inside the bad bacteria and starts growing trillions of copies of itself. So many copies are reproduced that the bad bacteria swell up, and explode, spilling trillions of new viruses out into the bloodstream. These viruses then find other bad bacteria to infect, destroying them too. There are also no known side effects or cross reactions with other medications when using phages.
“The bacteriophages in EcoPhage have the power to be an absolute game changer for those who suffer from foodborne illnesses and multiple gut health issues to include SIBO, candida, IBS, UTI recovery and leaky gut,” says Donna Gates, Founder of Body Ecology. “Scientists have known about phages for decades, but the widespread use of antibiotics took over. And now because of antibiotic resistance, phages are being taken a bit more seriously.”
Rising in the ranks of Body Ecology’s #1 best selling product, the Probiotic Protein Shake, EcoPhage has been very well received by Body Ecology customers. Bob D. stated, “I feel much better and did almost from the first capsule; digestion is also better! Did not do any testing, just thought I’d try it; glad I did!” And Laura who has suffered from severe intestinal issues for most of her life said, “Adding the right bacteria is great but what about the overgrowths and bad boys that were thriving in my gut? Well, EcoPhage is the solution. I’m sleeping better, eliminating better and there’s overall sense of well being I’m feeling since taking this product. So appreciate this team to find such an amazing solution.”
EcoPhage is available online at www.bodyecology.com/eco-phage, and comes in a bottle of 60 vegetarian capsules for $29.95.
About Donna Gates
Donna Gates, M.Ed., ABAAHP, is the international best-selling author of The Body Ecology Diet: Recovering Your Health and Rebuilding Your Immunity and The Body Ecology Guide to Growing Younger: Anti-Aging Wisdom for Every Generation. For the last 25 years, she has been on a mission to change the way the world eats. Her first book, The Body Ecology Diet, introduced the world to a sugar-free, gluten-free, casein-free, and probiotic-rich diet and a way of life that is now followed by tens of thousands of people around the world. The Diet grew to popularity initially by word of mouth and all these years later, still stands the test of time.
In 1994, Donna introduced a powdered blend of stevia rebaudioside to the US and it has since become the safest and most popular natural sweeter in the world. She pioneered and championed foods like young coconut kefir and coconut oil, and coined the phrase “inner ecosystem” to describe the still undiscovered network of microbes in our gut, now called the “Microbiome.” She also began teaching about the long-forgotten health benefits of fermented foods to provide the diversity needed in a healthy gut.
Over the past 25 years, Donna has become one of the most respected authorities in the field of digestive health, diet, and nutrition. In 2013, she completed an Advanced Fellow with the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Donna’s extensive research and dedication to learning helps her stay ahead of what’s coming in the field of health and nutrition. Her latest passion is nutritional genomics. She will soon launch a training program for practitioners that confirms that Body Ecology is a Gut Smart/Gene Smart way of life. She has a new book coming out in 2019.
