Ingredients explained
Bifidobacterium lactis
Bifidobacterium lactis colonizes the gut and produces metabolites like short-chain acids that may support a balanced microbiome and healthy digestion.
Caution: Start with the suggested serving to gauge tolerance, as some people may experience temporary gas or bloating when introducing probiotics.
NutraFlora SCFOS (short-chain fructooligosaccharides)
SCFOS are fermentable fibers that serve as food for beneficial gut bacteria, which may increase their numbers and produce short-chain fatty acids that support gut environment.
Caution: May cause gas or bloating at first because rapid fermentation increases intestinal gas; take with water and consider consistent use.
How they work together
The probiotic Bifidobacterium lactis supplies live beneficial bacteria, while SCFOS prebiotic fiber feeds these microbes to help them thrive. Together they support a favorable gut environment by combining live cultures with a fermentable fuel source.
Safety and tips
