Probiotics Line

The gut microflora has been defined as ‘the collection of microorganisms that inhabit the intestinal lumen and contribute to the host’s state of health.’ The intestinal microbiota is essential for the development and full maturation of the immune system.

Stress, excessive, insufficient or unbalanced nutrition, and the indiscriminate use of medications can all lead to intestinal dysbiosis. Maintaining the balance of the bacterial ecosystem in the gastrointestinal tract is key to supporting overall health. This can be achieved through proper hygiene, a healthy diet, and the use of live lactic acid bacteria (probiotics). The term ‘lactic acid bacteria’ refers to their ability to produce lactic acid from carbohydrates through enzymatic fermentation. Today, experts agree that taking probiotics is an ideal complement to the diet, as it helps keep the intestinal microenvironment functional.

Taking lactic acid bacteria is beneficial not only when there is, or may be, an imbalance in the gut microbiota (such as during antibiotic use or travel to tropical regions), but it can also provide excellent results in individuals experiencing typical symptoms of excessive gas production, such as bloating, abdominal distension, and flatulence. Gas production is influenced not only by the type of diet but also by the composition of the gut flora.

Physiological effects of probiotics:
– Regulate nutrient absorption
– Boost immune defenses
– Reduce lactose intolerance
– Lower serum cholesterol levels
– Help prevent diarrhea
– Improve intestinal transit
– Synthesize B vitamins, including B12
– Maintain the integrity of the intestinal lining, protecting it from pathogenic aggression
– Support the synthesis of essential fatty acids

Our probiotics stand out not only for their high quality and high concentration of live lactic acid bacteria, but also for the freshness of the products, ensured by the frequent production of small batches. Humidity levels are constantly monitored to guarantee long-term stability.
Ongoing research and the development of innovative technologies have led to the creation of probiotics such as ACTICOLON and ACTICOLON 0/12, formulated with gastroprotected live lactic acid bacteria.
