Properties
The dietary supplement Yogulact Forte helps normalize intestinal microflora, including in cases of severe dysbiosis.
Changes in intestinal microflora (intestinal dysbiosis) occur during antibiotic therapy, irrational nutrition, stressful situations, chronic gastrointestinal diseases, food allergies, helminthiasis, infectious diseases, unfavorable ecology, malabsorption (impaired absorption of nutrients, vitamins and microelements in the small intestine), and other conditions.
Manifestations of intestinal dysbiosis include: diarrhea, dyspepsia (digestive disorders), constipation, flatulence (bloating), nausea, belching, vomiting, abdominal pain, and possible allergic skin reactions.
The bacteria included in the Yogulact Forte dietary supplement have great biochemical significance for the body: – regulate the quantitative and qualitative composition of normal intestinal flora; – actively participate in digestion and absorption of nutrients; – promote the formation of lactic acid in the intestine, thereby shifting the pH factor to the acidic side.
An acidic environment inhibits the growth of pathogenic and opportunistic bacteria and ensures optimal action of digestive enzymes; – participate in the synthesis of B vitamins, K, ascorbic acid, folic and nicotinic acids, thereby increasing the body’s resistance to unfavorable environmental factors; – promote the synthesis of essential amino acids, better absorption of calcium salts, vitamin D; – participate in the metabolism of bile pigments and bile acids, protein and mineral metabolism, improve the processes of absorption and hydrolysis of fats; – prevent the proliferation of pathogenic, putrefactive and gas-forming intestinal microflora.
They synthesize substances with antimicrobial activity (lysozyme, hydrogen peroxide, bacteriocins (lactacins)); – stimulate the body’s immune system; – have anti-allergic properties.
Bifidobacterium breve – bifidobacteria, which are representatives of normal human microflora. They are resistant to a number of antibacterial drugs.
Bifidobacteria play an important role in normalizing intestinal microbiocenosis, maintaining the body’s nonspecific resistance, improving metabolic processes, and synthesizing biologically active substances, including vitamins.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus – bacteria with high probiotic activity, which are representatives of normal human microflora. They have high antibiotic resistance.
They prevent the development and help relieve atopic diseases (allergic rhinitis, bronchial asthma, atopic dermatitis and others).
Lactobacillus acidophilus – bacteria, which are representatives of normal human microflora, are used as stimulators of the growth of lactoflora and bifidoflora in the intestine.
They have high resistance to antibiotics and prevent the development or quickly relieve manifestations of dysbiosis associated with the use of antibacterial agents. They stimulate various parts of the immune response.
They have a pronounced antiviral effect due to the production of highly active hydrogen peroxide. Yogurt culture: Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp.Bulgaricus – bacteria that represent a component that stimulates the growth and development of normal microflora.
They have an antimicrobial effect against pathogenic microorganisms because they are antigens: in response to their intake into the body, activation of the nonspecific immune response occurs.
