ORTIS  Beneflora - 7 x 10g Sachets

  A combination of Acidophilus & 5 other friendly bacteria, plus Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) For all the Family   

BENEFLORA  is a probiotic supplement that contains a concentration of friendly bacteria & Fruto-oligosaccharides (FOS) which act as a food source for the bacteria. (these are sometimes called prebiotics and allow the bacteria to colonise afetr ingestion).  

One of the main requirements for a healthy gut is a balanced intestinal flora - the combination of good and bad bacteria that live side by side in our intestines and help to break down food. However, this delicate bacterial balance can be easily disrupted by antibiotics, aspirin, bacterial or viral infections, poor diet, stress or sudden lifestyle changes such as holidays.  

Including probiotics in our diet helps to sustain the good bacteria helping to ensure a continued healthy balance. A supplement like  BENEFLORA may be a useful addition to the diet.  

Instructions for use . BENEFLORA is a flavourless powder that can be eaten directly from the sachet or mixed with a cold drink or your favourite cold foods (it is especially good mixed into yoghurt or sprinkled onto breakfast cereal) turning your everyday food into functional food. Take one sachet per day for 7 consecutive days each month. However it is recommended that if you have been on a course of antibiotics you take  BENEFLORA for 35 days without interruption. Due to the presence of FOS, flatulence may ocur, which should disappear after a few days.  

BENEFLORA  is suitable for adults and children (age 6 and above). However children under 12 years should start with 1 teaspoon for 3-4 days and increase a little bit each day for the next 3 - 4 days until the full dosage is achieved.  This is to reduce the bloating effect that can happen when FOS is first intoduced.  

BENEFLORA does not need to be refrigerated
