Why Choose Ultra Probioplex™ Duo?

Ultra Probioplex™ Duo is a unique duo combination of Saccharomyces boulardii and live bacteria that has superior stability. This formula contains 8.5 billion extensively researched live bacteria strains and 6 billion Saccharomyces boulardii. It is ideal for those taking antibiotics, because Saccharomyces boulardii, as a yeast, is not inhibited or killed off by antibiotics; and it helps to support a healthy balance of microflora following antibiotic use with a combination of 4 different live bacteria strains. The bacterial strains are L. acidophilus NCFM®, L. paracasei Lpc-37, B. lactis Bi-07® and Bi-04. Ultra Probioplex™ Duo also contains vitamin D which contributes to the normal function of the immune system. This formula features ProtectAir™ technology which guarantees the number of live bacteria and their quality without refrigeration until the expiry date, making it ideal for travelling.

 

What is ProtectAir™ Technology?

ProtectAir™ is a triple action moisture defence system that protects the live probiotic bacteria so they can stay alive and at full strength at room temperature (30°C).

  •  75% less moisture from the capsule itself.
  • 50% less moisture from the air inside the bottle.
  • 75% less moisture activity in the probiotic.

How Are Bacteria Classified?

Bacteria names include their genus, species and strains. Using the example of Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM® the bacteria genus is Lactobacillus, the species is acidophilus and the strain is NCFM®. It is important to understand this as not all probiotics are created equal, and some strains may have little research compared to others. Therefore when choosing a live bacteria supplement you should choose one that includes strains that have been studied and can be guaranteed to survive the acidic conditions of the stomach.

 

What is Saccharomyces boulardii?

Saccharomyces boulardii is a non-pathogenic yeast strain isolated from the skins of tropical fruits. Each capsule of Ultra Probioplex™ Duo contains 6 billion Saccharomyces boulardii live organisms. It is resistant to antibiotics, meaning it can support gut function during antibiotic use. It also supports healthy bowel movements and is suitable for use by those who are travelling.

 

Why are blackberry fruit and leaf included?

Blackberries (Rubus fructicosus L.) have a long history of traditional use, where they are known to support normal bowel movements. Dark-coloured berries, such as blackberries are rich in phenolic compounds including anthocyanins and ellagitannins, which may have positive health benefits.

 

What's The Difference Between Time Of Expiry Vs Time Of Manufacture Guarantees?

As bacteria are living organisms it is the nature of every live bacteria supplement that as the product ages, some of the bacteria will die. Some live bacteria supplements advertise the number of bacteria present at the date of manufacture which does not guarantee that as time passes, the same amount will be present when the product is actually taken. UltraProbioplex™ Duo offers a guarantee that at least 8.5 billion live bacteria and 6 billion Saccharomyces boulardii will be contained in each capsule up until the date of expiry as given on the label of the product.

 

Has Ultra Probioplex™ Duo been used in any clinical trials?

The combination of the 4 strains of live bacteria used in Ultra Probioplex™ Duo have previously been demonstrated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study to help restore the levels of good bacteria in the gut following antibiotic use. The addition of Saccharomyces boulardii means this product is suitable for use both during and after antibiotic therapy.

Antibiotics are often prescribed to fight an infection caused by pathogenic bacteria. But as well as the harmful bacteria, they can also damage the ‘good’ bacteria in the gut, leading to digestive concerns such as diarrhoea. We have chosen to use Saccharomyces boulardii in UltraFlora® Duo because it is resistant to antibiotics, meaning it can support gut function during antibiotic use.

Even if you have taken a probiotic designed to be taken alongside your antibiotic medication, it is recommended to take a high quality probiotic after your course of antibiotics has finished to replenish and maintain healthy gut microflora.

Are there any side effects from taking probiotics?
