Acidophilus is renowned to be of use for the balance of good and bad bacteria in the bowel. It can be used to return the intestinal flora to normal, healthy levels (natural flora levels may be affected by fungus or antibiotics). Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum form part of the body’s normal micro-flora and encourage a healthy intestinal environment, promoting proper digestion and immune function and supporting the body’s natural defences.

The addition of FOS (fructooligosaccharides – short chain fatty acids), which act as fuel for the growth and maintenance of beneficial gut flora, makes this formula especially useful in cases of intestinal disorders due to bad bacteria, fungal overgrowth, or following antibiotic use. FOS have been shown to help improve calcium and magnesium absorption, balance gut Ph, improve lipid profiles, and strengthen the intestinal barrier.
