Indications & Uses
This Probiotic Combination is the original multi-strain probiotic with 14 strains, made for everyday use. It's a multispecies supplement, so it carries 14 different strains of beneficial bacteria. Because of this, it can deliver high concentrations of these bacteria to the colonisation sites in the gut, and so it may help with a more diverse range of digestive disorders. The bacteria are cryoprotected during freeze drying, and this gives two main benefits. First, they are protected from the harsh acid of the stomach, so they can colonise the full length of the gastrointestinal tract. Second, the product can be stored at room temperature without refrigeration. You can take this probiotic on a continuous basis or for a short period only, for example while you are taking antibiotics. It contains soya and milk, which are used in the fermentation process. The amount of milk is at a level that would not affect people with lactose intolerance.
