Thompson's Acidophls Plus All vital processes rely largely on a healthy digestive system and normal intestinal activity. Healthy intestines are inhabited by a complex ecosystem of living organisms, which normally exist in a balanced relationship to support digestion and maintain the integrity of the mucous lining in the gut. These friendly microorganisms form natural antibiotic substances that support the immune system and prevent the spread of harmful bacteria. This delicate internal environment is largely preserved by colonies of lactobacillus acidophilus, an important strain of intestinal flora. A healthy intestinal environment is easily disrupted by stress, overseas travel, poor dietary and lifestyle choices, and by the use of medications such as antibiotics, oral contraceptives and steroids. Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus and E-coli are opportunistic organisms that can overgrow and cause chronic gut infections, leaving the body weakened and susceptible to further infection.
Thompson’s Acidophilus Plus provides a safe and effective means of restoring and maintaining a healthy balance of intestinal flora. It is a milk-free formulation of not less than 500 million live organisms of Lactobacillus Acidophilus per capsule in a hypoallergenic base. As yeast infections can be exacerbated by some commonly used tabletting aids, Acidophilus Plus uses psyllium dietary fibre as a base and contains no dairy products. | Lactobacillus Acidophilus | | 500 million organisms |
