Floriben

Probiotics – Ferments

Floriben is a natural remedy specific for the re-balancing of the intestinal bacterial flora. A natural supplement made with Lactospore® lactobacillus in micro-encapsulated spores that are heat-resistant, stomach acids-resistant and bile salts-resistant, so they can reach the intestine intact.
LACTOSPORE® is naturally lactose-free, it is not a milk product derived supplement.

Each capsule has 2 billion of active probiotic spores.
It is not necessary to store the product in the fridge.

Floriben regulates the intestinal bacterial flora and helps to restore its physiological balance if it is compromised. It is suitable in case of gastrointestinal diseases such as constipation and diarrhea because it improves the digestibility of food and facilitates the elimination of toxins and of products that may ferment.
It facilitates the absorption of vitamins and minerals. It is advised in case of vitamin deficiency, especially those of B group.

Lactobacillus coagulans or sporogenes (Lactospore®): it is an active spore that produces lactic acid. The intestinal bacterial flora has many important functions, such as the production of vitamins like those of B group, vitamin H, pantothenic acid and folic acid. For many reasons, there can be imbalances between endogenous bacteria that can lead to an alteration of the intestinal functionality, such as diarrhea or constipation. The intake of lactic starters can re-balance the intestinal bacterial flora.
The Lactobacillus sporogenes is made of micro-encapsulated spores, that are heat-resistant, stomach acids-resistant and bile salts-resistant, so they can reach the intestine intact. Here, in about two hours, the spores germinate and turn into living cells.  They are active in the whole intestine.
They contrast the growth of pathogenic bacteria and they have a probiotic action, increasing the production of vitamins and the assimilation of nutrients such as calcium, iron and phosphorus. They improve digestion, also of milk and milkproducts.

For the total absence of unwanted effects, it is suitable also for children.
