- USP
- Only product on the market to contain 4 varieties of live activated natural probiotic bacteria.
- These 4 species of naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria in Symprove are:
- Lactobacillus casei
- Lactobacillus acidophilus
- Lactobacillus planatarum
- Enterococcus faecium
- How? Bacteria are supplied on an extract of germinated barley using a unique process and patented technology.
- Water-based barley drink.
- Market alternatives: dairy – single bacteria; capsules or sachets – can contain multiple strains of freeze-dried bacteria.
- Symprove is lactose-free – a good alternative for people who suffer dairy intolerance.
- No artificial flavours, sweeteners or colours.
- Wheat-free.
- Bottled product.
- Stored in the fridge for up to 5 months. (much longer shelf life than yoghurts or milk)
- Symprove passes directly to the lower intestine without triggering digestion in the stomach.
- Good bacteria begin to multiply within 20 minutes
- The body treats dairy products and capsules as food prompting early digestion in the stomach. Good bacteria are often destroyed prematurely, never reaching the lower digestive tract where population and colonisation takes place.
- A typical 50 ml serving of Symprove contains over 10 billion healthy active bacteria.
- The numbers of live bacteria after ingestion exceed the most concentrated freeze-dried probiotic food supplements on the market.
- Symprove is equally concerned with the condition of live bacteria and the ability to reach the gut successfully.
