Different strains of probiotics are useful for different reasons. Below are the strains that we should look out for in a probiotic and why. All these strains are found in our Gut Love alongside some additional strains for further gut support.
Lactobacillus acidophilus: Balances potentially harmful bacteria that can otherwise grow in your gut due to illness or antibiotics.
Lactobacillus fermentum: Strengthens your immune system and protects against gastrointestinal and upper respiratory bugs.
Lactobacillus casei: Can ease hypersensitive bowel symptoms – a common problem that causes cramping, abdominal discomfort, bloating, gas, and unhealthy stools.
Lactobacillus plantarum: Stimulates your digestive system, protects from unhealthy bacteria.
Lactobacillus reuteri: Supports your heart health by balancing cholesterol levels. It also protects the gut lining and supports female urinary tract and vaginal health.
Lactobacillus Bulgaricus: This is a common bacteria used in the production of yoghurt. It supports good digestion, prevents loose stools and helps relieve symptoms of sensitive bowel.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus: It can help relieve sensitive bowel symptoms and loose stools, enhance your gut health, and protect your teeth against decay.
Bifidobacterium Longum: This strain of bacteria can help protect against gut bugs.
Bifidobacterium Infantis: To treat bowel problems, dry and sensitive skin, vaginal yeast problems, lactose intolerance and urinary tract problems.
Bifidobacterium bifidum: Helps manage your digestive system, reduce gut sensitivity symptoms, and support your immune system.
Bifidobacterium Lactis: Helps break down food, absorb nutrients, and fight off "bad" bacteria.
What’s more, you won’t find any nasties in our supplements – no unnecessary additives, bulking agents or synthetic ingredients. Just pure plant power.
