Vitakruid Symflora Original Pre- and Probiotics 8 strains 90 Vegetarian capsules

Vitakruid Symflora Original Pre- and Probiotics 8 strains
High-quality pre- and probiotics in user-friendly capsules
Do you find the hassle with powder from sachets inconvenient? Then you can now choose our probiotics in capsule form where 3 capsules equal one sachet of the product Symflora® Basis from Vitakruid.

With eight different probiotic strains
In our well-known – and widely applicable – Symflora® formula, we combine no less than eight different bacterial strains. Scientific research shows that this combination of different bacterial strains is more effective than a single strain. Think of it like a football team where players with different qualities help and complement each other. With ten attackers, no one becomes world champion, right?

Prebiotics
In addition to Symflora® Original, we have added prebiotics, the dietary fibers for the bacteria in our intestines. We find prebiotics in vegetables, fruits, and grains. These indigestible dietary fibers stimulate the growth of bacterial strains. As a result, the bacteria have a higher survival and metabolic activity in our body.

High survival rate in the digestive system
The quality of a probiotic is determined, among other things, by the amount of live bacteria that ultimately reach your intestines. When passing through our gastrointestinal tract, the bacterial strains are exposed to digestive juices such as stomach acid and bile. Some probiotics do not survive the acidity of the stomach, resulting in a low survival rate. In contrast, Symflora® has a high chance of survival.

Probiotic activity more important than the number of colonies
The colony forming units per gram (cfu/g) in Symflora® remain relatively stable after passing through the gastrointestinal tract. This is evidenced by a study from Winclove probiotics in collaboration with Maastricht University. This means that the bacterial strains largely pass through the digestive system unharmed and the activity remains intact. The probiotics therefore have a high chance of survival and metabolic activity.

The survival rate and metabolic activity are therefore relevant metrics for selecting good probiotics. It is often claimed that the number (cfu/g) is important for a high-quality probiotic, but this is not entirely true. It is much more important that bacteria actually survive our stomach acid and reach the intestines.

The abbreviation (cfu/g) comes from the English abbreviation (cfu/g), which means colony forming units per gram. In Dutch, we have created the term kolonievormende eenheden per gram. The germ count or the colony forming units per gram represent the number of probiotic colonies present in one gram of the product. One capsule of Symflora® Original contains 6.7 x 10^8 (cfu/g), which amounts to 670 million colony forming units. Three capsules equal 2 billion probiotic colonies.

With ProbioAct® technology
The ProBioact® technology guarantees the stability, survival, and metabolic activity of the probiotics. Bacteria are indeed vulnerable. The technology contains nutrients specifically chosen to ensure that the probiotics survive the various digestive juices in the gastrointestinal tract and that they are stable at room temperature.
