Vital Re-Life LactoPLUS

Vital Re-Life LactoPLUS (HC005)
It contains 5 different species of beneficial bacteria, namely Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Lactobacillus Casei, Lactobacillus Bulgarious, Streptococcus Thermophilus, and Bifidobacterium Longum, FOS, Plant Enzyme ( Papain and dragon fruit) and natural fiber ( Isomalt and Acacia gum) with 2.5 billion cells per sachet of 3gm.

Functions of Ingredients

Lactobacillus Acidophilus
This is the most prominent microorganism found in the small intestine. This organism performs many functions including inhibition of disease (pathogenic) organisms. Studies have shown that L. acidophilus produces natural antibiotics such as lactocidin and acidophilin, which enhance immunity to infection.

Bifidobacterium Longum
This is found in the large intestine and plays a role in preventing the colonization of invading pathogenic bacteria by attaching to the intestinal wall and crowding out unfriendly bacteria and yeast. Bifidobacterium and L. acidophilus produce substantial amounts of lactic and acetic acid that lower the intestinal pH further keeping undesirable bacteria at bay. In clinical studies, during antibiotic treatment, B. longum has been found to reduce gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, nausea, etc. The B. longum strain also produces B vitamins which are important for the release of energy and nourishment for the central nervous system. Strain B is noted for intestinal colonization helps with frequency of bowel movements and fecal characteristics, while promoting better regularity. All this helps improve the intestinal environment, thereby promoting health. Strain M may provide protection against colon cancer and demonstrate other anti-tumor effects.

Acacia Gum
Fibregum is an excellent source of soluble dietary fiber (90%).

Fibregum, a prebiotic shown to enhance digestive health, provides functional benefits as well. Reduces glycemic and insulin index of food. High digestive tolerance, Strong prebiotic.

Isomalt
Lower Caloric Value: Isomalt's lower caloric value is partly due to the fact that intestinal enzymes are not able to easily hydrolyze its more stable disaccharide bond. Less of it is digested and, therefore, less absorbed from the small intestine into the blood, and this happens slowly.

Supports Gut Health: Daily intake of 30g isomalt was demonstrated to promote an increase of the “good” bacteria in the large intestine, the bifidobacteria, demonstrating the prebiotic effect of isomalt. The water-binding property of isomalt may influence the structure of the content of the gut, making it softer. If the consistency of the feces is too soft, it can be regulated by cutting down intake and allowing some time for adaptation. Like dietary fibers, isomalt is broken down by the gut bacteria to so called short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and gases. SCFA have the advantage of decreasing acidity in the large intestine and some SCFA are discussed as being beneficial for a healthy epithelium in the large intestine.

Less Dental Caries Risk: Isomalt is anti-cariogenic and does not promote dental caries, because oral bacteria cannot readily convert it into decay causing acids. Therefore, the acidic conditions that lead to tooth demineralization do not develop after consuming isomalt, as occurs after eating sugar and other fermentable carbohydrates. Furthermore, isomalt cannot be converted by oral bacteria into polyglucan, the substance from which dental plaque is synthesized.
Isomalt can help repair early dental caries lesions. Its sweet taste stimulates the production of saliva, thus reducing acidity and increasing calcium levels on the tooth surface. These changes facilitate remineralization of areas previously damaged by acidic conditions in the mouth due to fermentable carbohydrate consumption.

Very low blood glucose and insulin response: Due to the metabolism described above, isomalt hardly influences blood glucose or insulin after intake as demonstrated in a number of studies, thus isomalt is very low glycemic. Isomalt is an ingredient, a useful tool within the total diet, that can contribute to providing low glycemic products to consumers interested in this health benefit. In particular those consumers are addressed that are interested in a healthy lifestyle (management and prevention of obesity, diabetes etc., being on a ‘low carb diet’). There is a growing body of evidence that shows that a low glycemic diet can help in the management and prevention of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Benefits of LactoPLUS:

• Detoxifies and creates a healthy colon
  When consumed, the friendly bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium Longum) become active and begin to multiply into large colonies along the intestinal tract. It helps to maintain and replenish the balance of microflora in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

 

• Encourages healthy digestion and maximum nutrient absorption
  Allows nutrients from food and supplements to be maximally absorbed. This effect, dramatically increases overall nutrition.

 

• Promotes proper immune response and restores health function
  The development of an immune response toward foreign antigens of microbial and vial origin provides an essentially systematic way through which potentially pathogenic organisms are recognized and controlled.

 

• Prevents infection by pathogenic bacteria
  Lactobacillus spp may help to slow bacterial growth by producing antimicrobial substances, inhibiting the adherence and invasion of pathogenic organisms to the cells and mucosal surfaces of the host. Hence, reduces the risk of infectious, allergic or inflammatory diseases.

 

• Produces and regulates vitamins needed by our body
  Friendly bacteria may synthesize some of the B-vitamins including niacin (B3), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid and biotin, which are helpful in metabolism and energy-boosting.

 

• Helps to normalize cholesterol levels
  Cholesterol molecule is partially made out of carbon atoms, bacteria view carbon as an energy source which they ingest for nourishment breaking down the cholesterol.

 

• Prebiotics (Acacia Gum) to stimulate better growth of friendly bacteria
  Acacia gum is food for friendly bacteria, which are able to serve as source of energy to sustain the good strain bacteria such as Lactobacillus spp and thermophilus spp in colon, providing a boost for their growth.
