Maintain Digestive Health And Wellbeing.

• Restore and maintains the levels of healthy gut flora.
• Exclusive blend of NCFM®, LGG® and Bi-07 with oligofructose.
• Powdered probiotic for easy, flexible dosing.

Clinical Benefits:

• May restore and maintain the levels of healthy flora: Ultra Flora Plus is for everyday use and may help increase and maintain the balance of healthy gut flora in the gastrointestinal tract. The specific strains in Ultra Flora Plus are acid, bile and pancreatin resistant for safe transit through the gastrointestinal tract, allowing successful colonisation of healthy flora. The prebiotic oligofructose promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria by providing a fuel source for healthy flora.
• May help maintain a healthy digestive system: The strains in Ultra Flora Plus may assist in maintaining a healthy digestive system via the following mechanisms:
  • Stabilizing tight junctions and inhibiting invasion of human intestinal epithelial cells by enterovirulent bacteria.
  • In vitro, Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria inhibited mucosal adhesion of enteropathogens by competitive exclusion.
  • In a review, lactic acid bacteria produced acetic, lactic and propionic acid, lowering the pH which resulted in inhibition of growth of a wide range of bacteria.
• For dairy protein and lactose intolerant people: Ultra Flora Plus is also available in a dairy-free form as Ultra Flora Plus DF. Ultra Flora Plus DF contains the same concentrations of the probiotic bacteria without colostrum.
• Scientifically proven strains: Ultra Flora Plus contains an exclusive blend of specific probiotic strains; NCFM®, LGG® and Bi-07 that have been extensively studied with proven results.

Evidence for one specific probiotic strain is not transferrable to another.

Different strains have different health benefits. Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM® is exclusive to Metagenics in Australia and New Zealand.
