What are probiotics?
Probiotics are live micro-organisms often referred to as "friendly bacteria" or "good bacteria," which are similar to the usual members of normal human microflora communities, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. Probiotics help to restore and replenish the good, natural bacteria in the digestive system and reduce the growth of harmful organisms.
The benefits of probiotics
Stress, alcohol consumption, certain medications and eating poorly can throw out your gut’s balance of good versus bad bacteria and may lead to
dysbiosis (a change in the microflora). Probiotics help to restore balance of good bacteria to help support general health. Having a balance of the ‘good’ gut bacteria also helps to support digestive health, skin health, and immune system and bowel health.
Why choose Blackmores Probiotics+?
Blackmores Probiotics+ are a range of fridge free probiotics based on scientific evidence containing clinically trialled probiotic strains. The products help keep your gut healthy and running smoothly and are developed using a specialised formulation process and packaging technology to keep the good bacteria alive.
Fridge free
Blackmores Probiotics+ range uses measures in the manufacturing process and packaging that ensures the preservation of the probiotics without the need to refrigerate, so they are delivered in the digestive system alive where they are required. Whilst it is well known that high temperatures can affect the viability of probiotics, moisture is as big a threat to their survival.
The Blackmores Probiotics+ range is shelf stable because we use a sophisticated formulation process and packaging techniques to help prevent moisture from harming the good bacteria. Because our probiotics contain such low levels of moisture, heat isn’t such a worry and you don’t need to store them in the fridge.
