Regular use is said to support vaginal health and help with general discomfort and dryness. The supplement has been rated five stars online from many relieved women, with some stating that it was “the only remedy that worked” when suffering from recurrent thrush and/or UTIs. Atunci când anumite bacterii patogene, virusuri sau ciuperci sunt distruse, acestea eliberează toxine, care pot fi absorbite în sânge. Acest lucru pune presiune pe ficat pentru a descompune aceste produse secundare pregătite pentru a fi eliminate prin mișcări intestinale regulate, sănătoase. În cazul în care există o creștere excesivă care este eliminată brusc sau corpul se luptă să detoxifice sau să elimine aceste toxine, acumularea ar putea duce temporar la simptomele menționate mai sus. Tulpinile bacteriene individuale au cerințe diferite pentru a ajuta în cultură și în tractul gastrointestinal uman. Bio-Kult nu este comercializat ca o „cultură inițială” pentru fabricarea iaurtului sau a laptelui acru, iar tulpinile din Bio-Kult nu au fost alese pentru capacitatea lor de a fermenta laptele (și anume speciile Lactobacillus bulgaricus și Streptococcus thermophilus). Produsele Bio-Kult® conțin o concentrație mare de bacterii vii. În cazul în care există o supraîncărcare patogenă în intestinul dumneavoastră și începeți cu o doză mare, timp de câteva zile, un număr mic de persoane pot prezenta o reacție autolimitantă cum ar fi balonarea.

Fiecare capsulă conține: 2 miliarde de bacterii vii (2 x 10 9 UFC), viabile pe toată perioada de valabilitate, echivalent cu mai mult de 10 miliarde per gram (>1 x 10 9 UFC). Another interesting finding in the BDA review was that studies which used multi-strain probiotics seemed to produce better clinical results than single-strain probiotics in terms of global symptoms (14 of 35 studies reported statistically significant benefit and 65% of these used multi-strain probiotics), abdominal pain (8 of 35 studies reported statistically significant benefit and 63% of these used multi-strain probiotics) and QoL (only 2 of 16 studies that measured QoL reported statistically significant benefit, and both of these studies used multi-strain probiotics) [ 41]. Research teams at our institution (BSMMU) have also seen variable responses dependent upon the bacterial strains used as probiotic. Results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of the effects of a single strain probiotic, S. boulardii, in IBS-D patients were not very promising [ 32]. However, a follow-up study with a multi-strain probiotic yielded a beneficial outcome which was significant both clinically and statistically [ 33]. A number of studies have shown a decrease in the microbial diversity of IBS patients compared to healthy controls [ 42], and specifically in relation to Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli spp. [ 12, 43]. The 14-strain probiotic used in this current study (including 7 Lactobacilli and 4 Bifidobacteria spp.) may have provided clinical benefits by increasing the microbial diversity in these patients, and may also help explain why single-strain probiotic studies have not been as successful in reducing symptoms in IBS patients. Key features – Active ingredients: Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium BB-12 , Type: Chewable tablets; Size: 60 capsules, 1 per dayFood supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. *If you are taking any medication or have any medical condition please consult your doctor before taking any food supplement

Probiotics are live bacteria and yeasts that are of benefit to your digestive system. Found naturally in fermented foods such as yoghurt, kefir, kombucha, miso, kimchi, sourdough bread and some cheese, they can also be taken in supplement form. To boost both gut and vagina wellbeing, Garden of Life’s dedicated probiotic is created with Bulgarian yoghurt concentrate, wild European kefir grains, scobies and 38 clinically studied microbiome strains, including Bifidobacterium lactis and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Key details – Active ingredients: 14 strains of live bacteria, including Lactobacillus casei PXN 37, Lactobacillus plantarum PXN 47, Lactobacillus rhamnosus PXN 54, Bacillus subtilis PXN 21, Bifidobacterium bifidum PXN 23; Type: Capsules; Size: 30 capsules, 1–2 per day There are many things that can upset the gentle natural balance of “friendly” bacteria in the gut. For example, changes to your diet or the use of antibiotics can affect gut flora. Ever more of us are now choosing to take a probiotic supplement to increase our intake of these microscopic helpers.Grapefruit juice can interact with a range of different classes of medicines, potentially resulting in impaired drug metabolism and increased concentrations of the drug in the body. The most well-studied mechanism by which grapefruit interacts with drugs is through interference with the activity of certain enzymes in the liver (cytochrome P450). The chemicals in grapefruit responsible for this interaction are called furanocoumarins. A single serving of grapefruit juice contains approximately 1800-fold more furanocoumarins than a daily dose of Bio-Kult Candéa. Data on file* suggests that the quantity of furanocoumarins present in the grapefruit extract within the daily dose of Bio-Kult Candéa is highly unlikely to alter the absorption of medications metabolised through the cytochrome P450 pathway. However, if you are taking any medications or have any medical conditions, we always recommend consulting your doctor before taking any food supplements. Ingredients: Magnesium citrate, vegetable capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), °live bacteria ( milk, soya), vitamin B₆ (pyridoxine hydrochloride). Key features – Active ingredients: Seven bacteria strains including 5 billion powerful saccharomyces boulardii cultures; Type: Capsules; Size: 30 capsules, 1 per day If you are taking antibiotics: Take 4 capsules daily, ideally at a different time of the day from the antibiotics. Continue taking for at least 2 weeks after completion of the antibiotic course For travellers: 2 weeks before travel follow guidelines for general use. During travel take 4 capsules daily. Continue to take for at least 2 weeks following the end of travel. Cleverly, the one-a-day capsules use time-release technology to ensure they’re far more likely to reach the gut and help your microbiome restore and, ultimately, thrive. They’re definitely not the cheapest here, but they’re a sure-fire winner for all those who suffer digestive discomfort.

Health claims – “Currently, there are no authorised health claims relating to probiotics/live bacteria supplements,” says Burton. “This isn’t necessarily related to the efficacy of such supplements, but is more a reflection of the complexity of the field of microbiology, which does not easily fit into the current linear regulatory landscape. For example, probiotic effects are often strain-specific, and different species/strains may have different benefits in different conditions and/or patient populations.” While many customers opt to regularly top up their gut bacteria, this formulation is also designed for shorter-term use. For example, Bio-Kult Everyday Advanced Multi-Strain Formula can be taken alongside a dose of antibiotics to limit the damage that such medications can do to gut flora.Ingredients: Bulking agent: microcrystalline cellulose, live bacteria° ( milk, soya), vegetable capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose).
