Helps maintain a natural, healthy intestinal flora. Provides 10 billion CFU per dose. Combines four patented, research-based strains of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. Fructooligosaccharide (FOS)-free. HMF® capsules provide four patented probiotic strains that temporarily modify the intestinal flora in adults and children. The composition of the intestinal microflora is relatively stable, although it can be altered by diet, stress, age, and medications. Probiotics promote the presence of beneficial bacteria that help maintain a healthy intestine. In addition to decreasing pathogen survival by increasing the release of antimicrobial peptides from host cells, probiotics also strengthen the epithelial barrier. They support the integrity of tight junctions, which control permeability, and increase the release of mucins, which prevent pathogens from adhering to cells on the intestinal surface. HMF® capsules contain research-derived strains of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria to promote colonization of the small and large intestines.
