UltraFlora® Regular 60 Capsules (Prev Bactiol® Regular)

Formerly called Bactiol® Regular, UltraFlora® Regular features the clinically proven Bifidobacterium animalis ssp lactis HN019 strain, backed by over 40 clinical trials for its efficacy in supporting daily bowel regularity and microbiome balance.

This formula also includes vitamin D3 for immune support and beta-carotene (vitamin A) to maintain healthy mucous membranes in the gut. The resilient HN019 strain survives stomach acidity and adheres well to the gut lining, making it highly effective.

Safe for use by pregnant and breastfeeding individuals, as well as children, UltraFlora® Regular is a reliable choice for promoting gut and immune health.

The UltraFlora® range is a live bacteria range at heart of the Metagenics® brand, featuring science backed strains that have been clinically tested to stay in the gut for 24hrs. “Ultra” denotes the power of the brand with strong doses to match clinical research, and “Flora” denotes friendly bacteria which are known as gut flora and together make up your gut microbiome.

UltraFlora® Regular is particularly beneficial for those looking for support with regular bowel movements. Older individuals may find UltraFlora® Regular particularly helpful because as we age, we become more susceptible to decreased gut motility which can lead to infrequent bowel movements. The strain of bacteria, Bifidobacterium lactis HN019, has a long history of safe use and UltraFlora® Regular is safe to take in all ages from infancy to seniors.

UltraFlora® Regular features a probiotic strain called Bifidobacterium animalis ssp lactis HN019, also known as Bifidobacterium lactis HN019. This strain is known to survive the harsh conditions of the GI tract, has high stability and is acid and bile resistant unlike some other bacterial strains that may die before they have an effect. It has also excellent epithelial adhesion and has been well-studied for its efficacy in regulating intestinal motility and maintaining healthy microbiome balance.

Studies on the Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 strain show that after just 14 days, bowel regularity could be significantly enhanced and gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain and flatulence reduced ¹.

Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 improves microbiome balance through a number of actions including enhancing integrity of the gut barrier to help stop harmful pathogens entering the gut, and creating an optimal intestinal pH.

A number of factors including illness, medication, stress, or poor diet can cause the gentle balance of the bacteria in our gut to become out of whack. Taking a daily probiotic supplement could support your general well-being from the inside out by helping to maintain a balanced gut microbiome, which is essential for proper digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune health.

Probiotics support immune health by nurturing a balanced gut microbiome, increasing immune cell activity, supporting healthy inflammation, strengthening the gut barrier, and producing antimicrobial substances. UltraFlora® Regular features added vitamin D3 for extra immune support.
