Who drinks Symprove and Why?

A wide variety of people of all ages have a serving of probiotic Symprove on a daily basis to look after their digestive health. They drink Symprove to support healthy digestive functions which drive all sorts of activities in the body. Because we are all unique and the way that we are made, is governed by our genes, we each have our own health blueprint – and some fair better than others.

Many people think Symprove is the best probiotic for them because it is lactose free and gluten free. People with dietary intolerances often want a fast-acting multi strain probiotic but find it difficult to achieve this through freeze-dried capsules, or single strain dairy, if they are lactose tolerant. These became very clear messages when Symprove attended this year’s Allergy & Gluten Free Show in London. People also wanted to hear how Symprove scientists manage to make a barley based product gluten free. Symprove probiotic bacteria are naturally occurring and grown on an extract of germinated barley (the substrate) to activate the bacteria. The sterilisation process for this substrate denatures gluten to an undetectable level and this has been tested extensively in an independent laboratory.

Following extensive scientific research around the world, we know that certain bacteria (or living microorganisms) are essential to human health and these are called commensal bacteria. As a result, people realise these bacteria are now largely missing in the western diet and can also be affected by food production, the environment and modern day stress. Consequently, a lot of people know it’s important to include a probiotic supplement in their diet to support healthy digestive functions.

A lot of people also know that it’s essential to select a probiotic where the quality and condition of the bacteria are as important as high numbers of colony forming units (CFUs/ml). Scientists have worked hard to ensure the probiotic bacteria in Symprove work to optimum levels and have the best chance of reaching your gut. To achieve these advantages the following conditions need to occur:

• The probiotic bacteria are activated and ready to multiply from the time you swallow the drink. This allows rapid establishment and multiplication.
• The promised number of probiotic bacteria reaches your gut where they need to be in order to multiply.
• The specific daily amount or CFU per serving (colony-forming unit) is still viable at time of use. It is important that the bacteria have not deteriorated since manufacture and pass directly through the stomach without triggering digestion, reaching the lower gut without being compromised or harmed.

Our next generation probiotic Symprove achieves all these objectives giving you the best possible chance of topping up your gut with good bacteria.

Look after yourself. People choose Symprove because it actively helps to maintain healthy digestion. They also know what it specifically does for them. Read what we’d really like to say here.

Whilst most people can drink Symprove is it important to be aware that it is a probiotic food supplement and not a medicine. If you’re not sure whether you should drink Symprove, your doctor will be able to advise you.
