    Ultra Flora Immune Control 30 VegeCaps in New Zealand

    An Exclusive Probiotic Combination For Healthy Immune System Function.

    Probiotic strains in Ultra Flora Immune Control have been shown to help:

    • Maintain healthy immune system regulation.
    • Reduce occurrence of, and manage, allergy symptoms.
    • Combination of two immune modulating, anti-inflammatory probiotic strains.

     

    Clinical Benefits:

    • Regulate the immune system: Lactobacillus rhamnosus LGG® and lactobacillus paracasei (LP-33®) help to promote immune regulation by interacting with dendritic cells within the gut associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) stimulating the production of regulatory T cells and increasing production of regulatory cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-beta.5 LGG® also promotes a shift towards an enhanced anti-inflammatory response by a heightened secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines and decreased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
    • LGG® has bidirectional immunomodulatory effects - stimulatory when an increased response is needed and down-regulatory when attenuation is appropriate. 20 billion CFU of LGG® daily has been shown to reduce immune hyper-reactivity by strengthening gut mucosal barrier integrity.
    • LP-33® modulates inflammation and immune reactions by interacting with these cells and, together with LGG®, inducing development of regulatory T cells which can down regulate IgE, a Th2 cytokine involved in allergy. A double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial on 425 subjects with allergic rhinitis compared the effects of LP-33TM or placebo over a five week period. The LP-33® group demonstrated significant improvements in their Rhinitis Quality Of Life (RQLQ) score, nasal and ocular symptoms (Figure One).

    As a precaution: Safety has not been conclusively established during pregnancy. Practitioner discretion is advised when prescribing for use in pregnancy due to the following cautions:

    Pre-eclampsia: A meta-analysis of four clinical trials shows that taking probiotics during pregnancy increases the relative risk of pre-eclampsia.

    The specific effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG®) are unclear from this analysis.
