BioCare Bifidobacterium Infantis - Fructooligosaccharide F.O.S. - 60g Powder
Probiotic bacteria favourably alter the intestinal microflora balance, promote good digestion and boost immune function.
Lactobacilli and bifidobacteria maintain a healthy balance of intestinal flora by producing organic compounds, such as lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and acetic acid.
Bifidobacteria are the main friendly intestinal bacteria in breast-fed infants. Bifidobacterium infantis controls gut flora balance in infants up to weaning. Fructooligosaccharides (F.O.S.) when ingested, provide a specific food source for the growth of friendly intestinal bacteria.
Our digestive system is colonised by billions of bacteria and most of them are harmless. However, a favourable balance between the beneficial and the pathogenic bacteria must be kept to maintain a healthy system and its regular nature.
To help safeguard this balance, the use of capsules containing beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum is now an established practice.
