Advanced Acidophilus Vegetable Capsules is a non-dairy formulation containing 1 strain of specially cultured strain of L. acidophilus (LA-5®). Each capsule provides 500 million specially cultured strains of L. acidophilus, beneficial microorganisms that survive stomach acidity and naturally reside in the lower digestive tract.
All of Solgar’s Advanced Probiotics utilise a polysaccharide matrix technology which protects the live bacteria from being destroyed by stomach acid before it reaches the gut. This matrix is comprised of a specially formulated blend that offers protection as well as provides food for the organisms and enhances the shelf stability, meaning these products do not need to be refrigerated and protected from destruction by stomach acid.
The digestive system is home to trillions of bacteria and they support the gut to be healthy, as well as aiding the immune system. Eating fermented foods such as yoghurt, tempeh, cheese and sauerkraut, can help top up the level of friendly bacteria. A lot of commercial yoghurt products have added sugar, which feeds not only the good bacteria in your gut but also the bad ones. If your diet doesn’t contain fermented foods, you might want to consider taking a supplement.
