INTESTINAL PROBIOTICS & FIBER

A symbiotic that contains in one formula the unique combination of

Prebiotic Probiotic
(Sunfiber) + (L.Acidophilus and L.Bifidus)

Why Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Lactobacillus Bitidus?

1- Produce lactic acid, which creates acidic media in the upper GI tract. This
environment is favorable for the beneficial bacteria, but it inhibits the growth of
acid sensitive pathogenic bacteria
2- Produce a variety of natural antibiotics in the intestine, such as lactocidin,
lactobacillin,lactobreven and acidolin
3- Produce the enzyme lactase, which aids in the digestion of lactose and milk sugar
4- Prodcuce short chain fatty acids
