ProBio MAX - 20 billion probiotic bacteria per capsule

The benefits of Probio-Max

Probio-Max, a high-strength multi-strain probiotic, is beneficial for the following symptoms and diseases:

• Bad breath
• Bloated stomach
• Bad body odour
• Candida albicans overgrowth
• Coated tongue
• Coeliac disease
• Crohn's disease
• Ulcerated colitis
• Diarrhoea and digestion problems
• Dysbiosis (unbalanced bowel flora)
• Flatulence / wind - excessive and foul smelling
• Gall stones
• Indigestion and reflux
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
• Leaky gut syndrome

This probiotic contains 8 strains of beneficent gut-friendly bacteria which will help improve intestinal function. The capsules are specially coated so that the bacteria do not get destroyed by the stomach's high pH level (2.5) and travel intact in the gut where the acidity levels are much lower and there are proper conditions for bacteria to grow. By the concentration of live micro-organism in one capsule (20 billion), we could say that it is equivalent to 40 pots of probiotic yoghurt sold in supermarkets and which are also advertised as containing live micro-organisms.

Probiotics — how good they are?

Probiotics are a necessary addition to our daily supplements, as we constantly are under the effects of food additives, medication, stress, bad dietary regimes which disturb the inner balance of friendly gut bacteria. The good bacteria, permanent intestinal residents, are taking part in digestion. Without their work the food we eat would never be digested and we would never get the nutrients from it. It is a symbiosis between our body and millions of bacteria, an unwritten consent to help each another. Sometimes strains of pathogenic "bad bacteria" can take over the warm and abundant intestine. There's a constant battle for who reigns over the gut, this is why it is important to help the good bacteria always win this tiny "war". The symptoms of an intestine which is colonized by wrong strains of bacteria are diarrhoea, bloating, constipation, painful bowel movements, gases, etc. Some of other factors which could disturb the intestinal balance are outlined below:

• After an antibiotic treatment
• Recovering from disease
• Stress. stressful lifestyle
• Traveling abroad, especially in places where food and water is not ideal.
• Frequent need to use the toilet
• Ageing
• Having a poor diet, a poor digestion
• Lack of sleep and rest

About the ingredients

• Lactobacillus bulgaricus
• Lactobacillus casei
• Lactobacillus rhamnosus
• Lactobacillus thermophilus

Heat resistant
These probiotics do not require refrigeration and this makes them perfect for travelling.
Acid resistant
The capsule of this supplement is specially designed to withstand stomach acid enabling them to reach the colon intact and ready to perform. The manufacturer has tested the availability of the bacteria strains after exposing them to 2 hours of acidic pH 2.0 environment an came to the following conclusion

The total viable bacterial counts do not reduce in viability/concentration after contact with acid of pH 2.0 for 2 hours. This means that a high concentration of microorganisms survive, which could reach the small intestine and establish themselves as part of the normal microflora. Laboratory tests are not necessarily a reflection of in vivo conditions, although the experiments were designed to mimic the situation as closely as possible.
