Abdominal bloating is usually associated with over-eating,
food intolerances, constipation, intestinal gas, PMS (or PMT) and menstruation
when the abdomen feels uncomfortable, full and tight. When digestion is poor,
waste materials and the gases they produce can remain in the gut for long
periods of time - often at high temperatures and pressures - and stretch the gut
walls beyond their comfortable limits.
Imbalances of bad pathogenic bacteria over friendly probiotic bacteria in the
intestines can result in poor digestive health, production of smelly and
uncomfortable gases and sluggish bowel function. A one-week course of AntiBloat
re-balances the good bacteria in the small and large (colon) intestines to
support healthy digestion and good intestinal passage for a comfortably flat
stomach |

Bifidobacterium bifidum Rosell-71: naturally resident in the
colonic (large intestine)
microflora, B.bifidum
supports the production
of antibodies, promotes
detoxification and maintains
resistance to undesirable
pathogenic and putrefactive
bacteria. In the colon,
B.bifidum flourishes
well with fructooligosaccharides
(prebiotics – see below)
where it supports the
intestines to assist
transit, promote comfort
and optimise a healthy
frequency and regularity
of bowel movements.
Prebiotics: The non-digestible
FOS (fructooligosaccharides)
safely make their way
to the large intestine
(colon) where they act
as a food source to
stimulate abundant growth
of bifidobacteria. The
symbiotic relationship
between bifidobacteria
and prebiotics in the
colon has a great impact
on supporting intestinal
health and wellbeing.
Lactobacillus casei
Rosell-215: an extensively
studied species naturally
resident to the intestinal
flora; this strain has
been researched in its
ability to resist gastric
acidity and bile salts
in the harsh stomach
environment in order
to reach the small and
large intestines alive
where it exerts its
probiotic benefits.
L. casei has been shown
to modulate the composition
and growth of bifidobacteria
in the colon and to
support regularity.
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Rosell-52 – a natural
resident of the intestinal
microflora; this strain
has been well studied
to survive the gastric
acids and bile salts
expected at mealtimes
and to reach the intestines
without damage. In addition,
L. acidophilus can adhere
to the cell wall lining
of the intestines where
it exerts it beneficial
effects in terms of
inhibiting intestinal
pathogens and supporting
immune cells.
Lactococcus lactis Rosell-1058:
This strain is obtained
from the kefir culture
and is renowned for
antimicrobial benefits
in supporting the body
against undesirable
harmful bacteria and
some fungi.

Did you know that each of us has around 100,000,000,000,000
bacteria in our intestines? That is 10 times the number of cells in our body,
and can weigh around 1.5 kg! This microflora consists of both friendly probiotic
bacteria and bad pathogenic bacteria that co-exist in a complex ecosystem.
Having a healthy balance of probiotics over pathogens plays an important role in
digestion and immunity.
Friendly bacteria support digestion in several capacities. A healthy balance of
friendly bacteria in the intestines provides specific enzymes needed in the
digestion of particular substances, produces B complex vitamins and vitamin K,
and improves the absorption and uptake of minerals and nutrients in the diet.
A healthy balance of friendly bacteria also helps maintain overall immunity as
up to two-thirds of the body’s immunity is managed in the intestines. Where
there is a healthy balance of friendly bacteria in the intestines, acidity is
high which hinders the growth and survival of bad bacteria, and enables the
growth of friendly bacteria to multiply and exclude the bad bacteria.
However, the balance of bacteria in the gut is fragile and can easily be
disrupted by several factors such as antibiotics, ageing, diet, environment and
the menstrual cycle.
AntiBloat is an advanced formulation of unique probiotic strains and prebiotics
that helps maintain a healthy balance of friendly bacteria in the intestines
throughout the month to support digestive health, aid transit and promote a
comfortably flat stomach. |
