Enhances immune function. Around 500 species of bacteria, as well as many species of yeast and other organisms, inhabit the human gastrointestinal tract and make up the "gut flora". In an average adult the bacteria weigh about 1kg and the number of individual organisms easily outnumbers the total number of cells in the human body. Luckily for us a large number of these organisms don't cause disease, as it would be easy to assume, in fact, they help protect us from disease. The gut flora perform many functions that contribute to the health of the human host; "friendly bacteria" mostly have names beginning with 'Lactobacillus' or 'Bifidobacteria' which denotes the genus they belong to. Suggested Use: 1 capsule, with meals, three times daily for 4 or 5 days, then once daily, or as recommended by your health care professional.
