Lamberts Acidophilus Extra 10
10 billion friendly bacteria per
capsule
Our digestive system is colonised
by billions of bacteria and most of them are harmless. However,
during times of stress, travel, illness, changes in the diet, and
taking antibiotics, the unfriendly, pathogenic bacteria sometimes
overwhelm the friendly bacteria. In these situations, practitioners
frequently recommend the use of probiotics (capsules containing
beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and
Bifidobacterium bifidum).
Researchers estimate that more than
400 species of bacteria inhabit the digestive tract. Some of these
are the pathogenic, or disease-producing, bacteria. But other
species are considered “friendly” bacteria. To a large degree,
digestive tract health depends on the condition of the friendly
bacteria and the control they exert over the less friendly,
pathogenic variety.
Friendly bacteria produce acetic, lactic and formic acids which
lower the pH in the intestine, thereby inhibiting growth of
undesirable bacteria and enhancing the nutritional status by helping
to digest food and manufacture essential vitamins.
Lamberts use the beneficial Lactobacillus acidophilus La-5 and
Bifidobacterium Bb12 strains of bacteria. The bacteria are freeze
dried with an acid stable polysaccharide matrix that helps protect
them from stomach acid by up to 50 times!
And whilst this Lamberts product is stable at room temperature, to
ensure maximum potency, it is stored in refrigerated conditions
until despatch. A desiccant sachet is also included in every pot to
avoid moisture spoiling viability.
Probiotics are suggested for
people whose gut flora is unbalanced due to:
- Taking oral antibiotics
- Stress
- Candida 'yeast infection'
- Illness
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Increasing age
- Before, during and after
travelling overseas

Lamberts is the UK's
leading supplier of food supplements to health professionals. All
Lamberts product formulations are based on an in-depth understanding
of the latest nutritional research. Their strategy is to develop
only those products that are supported by a valid scientific
rationale and this has led health professionals to rely on Lamberts

of active ingredients. Lamberts products are produced in their own
factory which is one of the most modern and technically advanced in
Europe and which operates to stringent pharmaceutical standards of
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and is approved by the UK
Department of Health, Medicines Control Agency. Each product
manufactured by Lamberts is subjected to a series of rigorous tests
ranging from analysis of the raw materials through to tests on the
product whilst it is being made as well as the finished product
itself to ensure they meet the specifications given on the label.
Lamberts work in conjunction with several research departments at
Universities through the UK to conduct studies on a number of topics
ranging from the use of magnesium in asthma through to
anthocyanidins and fluid retention. Many of Lamberts products are of
a higher potency than you would normally find in retail products.
The reason for this is that the active ingredients in their products
are included at relevant levels as opposed to just token levels.
