The human gastrointestinal tract is colonized with a diverse population of microbes (microbial flora). This microbial flora not only has digestive function but also contributes in the homeostasis of intestinal epithelium and innate immunity. This microflora’s change is effective in the pathogenesis of various diseases, such as infections, inflammations, allergies and immunologic disorders. Recognition of the importance of intestinal microflora has increased the use of probiotics for promoting and maintaining overall health. Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium are the most common probiotic strains. Streptococcus thermophilus and Saccharomyces boulardii are also used as probiotics.
Prebiotics are supplements that are not hydrolyzed and absorbed in the small intestine and are available as food for colon microflora and selectively stimulate the growth and activity of a number of bacterial species of gastrointestinal flora, thus have beneficial effects on the health of the host. The most commonly used prebiotics are carbohydrates with different sizes and of all types of them, fructooligosaccharide and inulin can be mentioned.
FamiLact 2plus® containing high amounts of 8 effective strains of bacteria and FOS prebiotic and a renovated formulation, is the best choice for providing daily probiotic requirements of family members. This product improves gastrointestinal function and adjusts the immune system by remaking digestive normal flora. FamiLact 2plus® is effective in preventing and reducing the duration of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, travelers’ diarrhea and viral diarrhea. It is also effective in improving the symptoms of IBS, IBD and lactose intolerance. The use of enteric-coated capsule shells in this product, can eliminate the chance of damage to probiotic strains and consequently their reduction when passing through the stomach.
