Lamberts Probioguard Probiotics 60 capsules

Enzymes are necessary for the digestion of large molecule macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates and fats) into small molecules that may be absorbed. Protease breaks down proteins into absorbable peptides and amino acids. Lipase breaks down triglycerides into absorbable free fatty acids and glyercol. Only monosaccharides can be absorbed by the intestine. Starches and dissacharides must be broken down into single sugar units before being absorbed. Amylase breaks down starch. Maltase, lactase and sucrase break down the dissacharides maltose (malt sugar), lactose (milk sugar) and sucrose (table sugar) into monosaccharides for absorption. Cellulase and phytase break down cellulose and phytates which can bind essential minerals and other nutrients, preventing their absorption. Plant Enzyme Digestive Formula Similase is a highly concentrated plant enzyme digestive formula that is stable and active from the acid environment of the stomach to the alkaline environment of the small intestine (pH2-12). Derived from natural sources, this formula is well tolerated in sensitive conditions and provides balanced support for the digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

The bacteria in Bio-Culture are encapsulated within a stomach resistant gel matrix. The capsule is dissolved by acid in the stomach, but the bacteria remain protected by the gel, which in turn dissolves in the intestine to release the bacteria for maximum benefit. Bacteria are freeze dried and packed into a hermetically sealed aluminium tube which keeps them fresh and prolongs the shelf life once opened.
