Probion Probiotic
It is well known now that to have a healthy digestive system the natural beneficial bacteria in the gut need to be present in high numbers. As part of our broad approach to controlling IBS we therefore wanted to have an effective probiotic supplement to help support and maintain the natural flora.
We have chosen ProBion® as it has all the characteristics that allow effective delivery of viable bacteria to the lower bowel, where the bacteria need to get to be effective.
Many probiotic products marketed heavily, yoghourt drinks, powders and tablets etc, however most sell themselves on the number of bacteria in the product but do not give any indication of whether live bacteria actually get to where they are needed. A recent study by the UK Government Foods Standards Agency demonstrated that most of the bacteria found in these products did not survive the stomach and bile present in the upper digestive tract and failed to make any impact on the ‘residential microflora’ (natural gut bacteria).
PrioBion® contains viable lactic acid cultures minimum 500 million bacteria per gram of, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Bifidobacterium lactis together with Inulin (often described as a prebiotic) which is a natural sugar (fructooligosaccharides and fructopolysaccharides derived from the Chicory which stimulate the growth of probiotic bacteria.
The bacteria is coated with a layer of Xanthan gum which protects the bacteria while it passes through the stomach acids and once in the correct part of the digestive tract slowly dissolves spreading the bacteria over a large area.
Dosage
Start with 1 tablet a day for a week. Then increase gradually to 1-2 tablets twice daily. When your body needs a little extra support, take a double dose. The tablets are taken best with meals. You can take ProBion® products either temporary or permanently as a supplement. This ensures that you get an adequate amount of beneficial lactic acid cultures.
Does it work?
Yes, there is strong evidence of the high survival rate of the bacteria and of the ability to target deliver the bacteria to the intestine. This work was carried out by The Swedish Institute for Food and Biotechnology using internationally recognised test methods.
