Product description

Live Cultures+ Lab4 Probiotics restores the gut microbiota, protects the gut lining and supports the production of digestive enzymes*

Comprehensive gut health support from a unique blend of probiotics, vitamin A and calcium*

Clinically proven probiotic strains

Expertly formulated with ingredients to balance gut flora and optimise digestive function*

Pure & Essential Live Cultures+ Lab4 Probiotics has been expertly formulated to provide comprehensive gut health support. Each capsule provides a potent 25 billion CFU dose of probiotics, prebiotic calcium and vitamin A. This unique vegan blend helps to restore the gut microbiota, protects the gut lining and supports the production of digestive enzymes.*

The strains in a probiotic supplement can determine their overall health benefits. We provide Lab4, a blend of four extensively researched strains of probiotics including lactobacillus and bifidobacterium. We deliberately prioritise using fewer strains at higher doses, ensuring a high number of live cultures reach the intestine walls so they have a greater chance of colonising in the gut. Maintaining a good balance of these four strains may also help to reduce the growth of harmful cultures in the intestines. Formulated for everyday use, simply take one daily with food.*

A common challenge when supplementing with probiotics is their ability to survive stomach acid and colonise the gut. To overcome this, we use the clinically studied Lab4 blend of 4 acid-resistant probiotic strains proven to reach the gut alive. Our live cultures are also microencapsulated and are provided alongside a prebiotic for further protection against the harsh environment in the gut.

To support colonisation, most prebiotics work by feeding cultures in the gut which can cause gas and bloating. Instead, we add Aquamin, an algae extract that acts as a protective carrier. Its unique honeycomb structure transports more live cultures to the intestines, making it a non-bloating FOS-free prebiotic. Many probiotic strains contain lipopolysaccharides (LPS) side-chains, responsible for triggering an immune reaction, so we use LPS-free strains for support without irritation.

We microencapsulate our probiotics, so the product is shelf-stable at room temperature and doesn’t require refrigeration. To ensure a high dose of probiotics are still present when taking the supplement, we manufacture at a dose of 50 billion (CFU) to ensure at least 25 billion in each capsule at the time of expiry.

Lactobacillus & Bifidobacterium support the production of beneficial products in the body, including lactic acid and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Lactic acid aids in the breakdown of bile in the gut, preventing it from being reabsorbed as cholesterol, whilst SCFAs provide a source of energy to gut cells and support the maintenance of the tight junction barrier in the small intestines, damage to which is linked to poor health outcomes. Research has shown that this unique blend benefits cognitive function, may protect the gut from disturbance and has improved quality of life for those with digestive complaints.*

In addition to its prebiotic nature, Aquamin is also a source of plant-based calcium. The calcium carbonate helps to rapidly neutralise hydrochloric acid within the stomach, protecting live cultures, and then it also helps to balance gut flora in the intestines by creating a favourable pH, an ideal environment to encourage the growth of beneficial cultures. To further support digestive health, calcium also contributes to the normal function of digestive enzymes, aiding the breakdown of food and absorption of nutrients.*

An imbalanced gut microbiotais often associated with a compromised gut lining and symptoms such as bloating, discomfort and cramps. To provide additional support for gut barrier integrity, we have added vitamin A which contributes to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes of the gut. Vitamin A also has a role in the process of cell specialisation, a process that occurs after cell division where newly formed cells are able to function efficiently. We use beta-carotene, a safe alternative to vitamin A as retinol.*
