$details$
HMF Replete supports healthy intestinal microflora throughout antibiotic use and in adults with IBS.
- The intestines contain more than 400 bacterial species, and bacterial balance needs to be maintained for healthy intestines.1
- Antibiotics alter intestinal microflora, and can result in the proliferation of antibiotic resistant bacteria.2
- Probiotics promote naturally healthy microflora and support normal intestinal microbiota following antibiotic therapy.2
- IBS affects nearly 5 million Canadians and can also result from altered intestinal microflora.2,3This leads to malabsorption of bile acids – which aid in fat digestion – and in turn, increases fluid and mucus secretion into the colon for bile acid dilution.2
- As Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria help reabsorb bile acids, less water enters the colon, decreasing diarrheal occurrence.2
- In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 52 adults with IBS, daily supplementation with CUL-60, CUL-21, CUL-20 and CUL-34 significantly improved quality of life and bowel habit satisfaction scores, and decreased the number of days with pain within 10 weeks.4
