AntiBloat Probiotic and Prebiotic 7 SachetsQty: 7 Sachets
Abdominal bloating is usually associated with over-eating, food intolerances, constipation, intestinal gas, PMS (or PMT) and menstruation when the abdomen feels uncomfortable, full and tight. When digestion is poor, waste materials and the gases they produce can remain in the gut for long periods of time - often at high temperatures and pressures - and stretch the gut walls beyond their comfortable limits.
Imbalances of bad pathogenic bacteria over friendly probiotic bacteria in the intestines can result in poor digestive health, production of smelly and uncomfortable gases and sluggish bowel function. A one-week course of AntiBloat re-balances the good bacteria in the small and large (colon) intestines to support healthy digestion and good intestinal passage for a comfortably flat stomach
How does AntiBloat work?
Bifidobacterium bifidum Rosell-71: naturally resident in the colonic (large intestine) microflora, B.bifidum supports the production of antibodies, promotes detoxification and maintains resistance to undesirable pathogenic and putrefactive bacteria. In the colon, B.bifidum flourishes well with fructooligosaccharides (prebiotics – see below) where it supports the intestines to assist transit, promote comfort and optimise a healthy frequency and regularity of bowel movements.
Prebiotics: The non-digestible FOS (fructooligosaccharides) safely make their way to the large intestine (colon) where they act as a food source to stimulate abundant growth of bifidobacteria. The symbiotic relationship between bifidobacteria and prebiotics in the colon has a great impact on supporting intestinal health and wellbeing.
Lactobacillus casei Rosell-215: an extensively studied species naturally resident to the intestinal flora; this strain has been researched in its ability to resist gastric acidity and bile salts in the harsh stomach environment in order to reach the small and large intestines alive where it exerts its probiotic benefits. L. casei has been shown to modulate the composition and growth of bifidobacteria in the colon and to support regularity.
Lactobacillus acidophilus Rosell-52 – a natural resident of the intestinal microflora; this strain has been well studied to survive the gastric acids and bile salts expected at mealtimes and to reach the intestines without damage. In addition, L. acidophilus can adhere to the cell wall lining of the intestines where it exerts it beneficial effects in terms of inhibiting intestinal pathogens and supporting immune cells.
Lactococcus lactis Rosell-1058: This strain is obtained from the kefir culture and is renowned for antimicrobial benefits in supporting the body against undesirable harmful bacteria and some fungi.
DTECTA guarantees 5 billion live micro-organisms per AntiBloat sachet until the best before date.
Background Information
Did you know that each of us has around 100,000,000,000,000 bacteria in our intestines? That is 10 times the number of cells in our body, and can weigh around 1.5 kg! This microflora consists of both friendly probiotic bacteria and bad pathogenic bacteria that co-exist in a complex ecosystem. Having a healthy balance of probiotics over pathogens plays an important role in digestion and immunity.
Friendly bacteria support digestion in several capacities. A healthy balance of friendly bacteria in the intestines provides specific enzymes needed in the digestion of particular substances, produces B complex vitamins and vitamin K, and improves the absorption and uptake of minerals and nutrients in the diet.
A healthy balance of friendly bacteria also helps maintain overall immunity as up to two-thirds of the body’s immunity is managed in the intestines. Where there is a healthy balance of friendly bacteria in the intestines, acidity is high which hinders the growth and survival of bad bacteria, and enables the growth of friendly bacteria to multiply and exclude the bad bacteria.
However, the balance of bacteria in the gut is fragile and can easily be disrupted by several factors such as antibiotics, ageing, diet, environment and the menstrual cycle.
AntiBloat is an advanced formulation of unique probiotic strains and prebiotics that helps maintain a healthy balance of friendly bacteria in the intestines throughout the month to support digestive health, aid transit and promote a comfortably flat stomach.
For best results when mixing:
1. Pour an inch of cold water into a tall glass, shake sachet and gently sprinkle in the powder.
2. Leave powder to settle on the surface of the water - it will dissolve naturally
3. Swirl the water around in the glass
4. If necessary, mix with a teaspoon to disperse any remaining powder.
