Lamberts Acidophilus Extra 10
10 billion friendly bacteria per capsule
Our digestive system is colonised by
billions of bacteria and most of them are harmless. However, during
times of stress, travel, illness, changes in the diet, and taking antibiotics,
the unfriendly, pathogenic bacteria sometimes overwhelm the friendly
bacteria. In these situations, practitioners frequently recommend the
use of probiotics (capsules containing beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus
acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum).
Researchers estimate that more than
400 species of bacteria inhabit the digestive tract. Some of these are
the pathogenic, or disease-producing, bacteria. But other species are
considered “friendly” bacteria. To a large degree, digestive tract health
depends on the condition of the friendly bacteria and the control they
exert over the less friendly, pathogenic variety.
Friendly bacteria produce acetic, lactic and formic acids which lower
the pH in the intestine, thereby inhibiting growth of undesirable bacteria
and enhancing the nutritional status by helping to digest food and manufacture
essential vitamins.
Lamberts use the beneficial Lactobacillus acidophilus La-5 and Bifidobacterium
Bb12 strains of bacteria. The bacteria are freeze dried with an acid
stable polysaccharide matrix that helps protect them from stomach acid
by up to 50 times!
And whilst this Lamberts product is stable at room temperature, to ensure
maximum potency, it is stored in refrigerated conditions until despatch.
A desiccant sachet is also included in every pot to avoid moisture spoiling
viability.
Probiotics are suggested for people
whose gut flora is unbalanced due to:
- Taking oral antibiotics
- Stress
- Candida 'yeast infection'
- Illness
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Increasing age
- Before, during and after travelling
overseas

Lamberts
Lamberts is the UK's leading
supplier of food supplements to health professionals. All Lamberts product
formulations are based on an in-depth understanding of the latest nutritional
research. Their strategy is to develop only those products that are
supported by a valid scientific rationale and this has led health professionals
to rely on Lamberts for nutritional and herbal supplements that provide
relevant levels of active ingredients. Lamberts products are produced
in their own factory which is one of the most modern and technically
advanced in Europe and which operates to stringent pharmaceutical standards
of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and is approved by the UK Department
of Health, Medicines Control Agency. Each product manufactured by Lamberts
is subjected to a series of rigorous tests ranging from analysis of
the raw materials through to tests on the product whilst it is being
made as well as the finished product itself to ensure they meet the
specifications given on the label. Lamberts work in conjunction with
several research departments at Universities through the UK to conduct
studies on a number of topics ranging from the use of magnesium in asthma
through to anthocyanidins and fluid retention. Many of Lamberts products
are of a higher potency than you would normally find in retail products.
The reason for this is that the active ingredients in their products
are included at relevant levels as opposed to just token levels.
