Probiotic Complex (with Bifidus And Fos), 60 Vegetable Capsules. Suitable For Vegetarians

Acidophilus with Bifidus and FOS. In our bodies there are twenty times more bacteria than there are human cells and we all contain more bacteria in our bodies than there have ever been people on the planet. Probiotics are often called our friendly bacteria and are the beneficial bacteria normally present in the digestive tract. The use of these beneficial bacteria dates back thousands of years to nomadic tribes who regularly consumed milk fermented with friendly bacteria. A healthy gut typically contains as much as 4lbs of bacteria, of which 85% are lactobacilli and 15% coliform bacteria. However, the typical colon bacterial count today shows a ratio that can be so distorted that it actually sows these figures in reverse. The friendly bacteria are so important for proper digestion and other useful functions, such as preventing overgrowth of yeasts and other pathogens and the manufacture of vitamin K. Directions: Take 1-2 capsules per day with food.
