Yamamoto® Research Neuflor 56 billion is a dietary supplement with a high concentration of probiotics (one to fifteen billion per species) containing 8 different clinically-tested live microorganism strains, belonging to the Lactobacillus, Bifidobacteria and Streptococcus thermophilus groups. It is a balanced combination of active probiotics formulated to colonise the whole of the digestive tract and rapidly rebalance the gut flora.
The intestinal bacterial flora, or gut microbiota, is the collection of the very many bacteria that live in and colonise our intestines. It has a multitude of functions, as it affects the entire mental and physical state of the body. The gut microbiota produces vitamins, immunoglobulins and important substances like serotonin, as well as playing a protective and structural role, since the intestinal mucosa acts as a true barrier against pathogens and controls and lowers faecal pH. Under physiological conditions, there is a kind of dynamic balance between the “good”and “bad” bacterial species. However, anomalies in this balance caused by various factors promote the growth of pathogenic (i.e. “bad”) bacteria, which in turn favours disorders of varying severity and magnitude and changes in the intestinal membrane. As a result, an intestine with a bacterial flora imbalance is more susceptible to external attacks and disorders of various kinds.
Research is also revealing the direct relationship between colon abnormalities and emotional disorders, since the intestinal cells are directly responsible for producing 80% of the body’s serotonin, which is known as the good mood hormone. This is why, increasingly frequently, the gut is referred to as the second brain.
In the presence of gut flora abnormalities, probiotics, more commonly known as lactic acid bacteria are a precious aid. They consist of live bacteria that colonise the gut and restore intestinal balance and well-being by counteracting the proliferation of potentially harmful bacterial species.
For these reasons, when the physiological balance of the bacteria in our gut is disturbed, thanks to its balanced, high concentration of 8 selected strains, Neuflor 56 billion allows recolonisation by “gut-friendly” bacteria that reach the intestine alive to promote intestinal health. Neuflor 56 billion helps restore the integrity of altered intestinal mucosa, thereby supporting the immune system and strengthening its response to infections of various origins. It can also prevent several types of infectious diarrhoea, such as traveller's diarrhoea and diarrhoea associated with antibiotic treatment (which can alter the microbiota), and can protect children from rotavirus infection. In certain situations, probiotics counteract the colonisation of the gastric mucosa by Helicobacter pylori, and combined with targeted therapeutic treatment, help to overcome the bacterium.
The beneficial effect of probiotics should also not be overlooked in the case of vaginal candidiasis: the presence of Candida does not usually cause any symptoms or discomfort, because it is kept under control by our immune system and precisely by lactobacilli.
Neuflor 56 billion has an authentic immunomodulatory effect on the intestinal immune system, and an anti-inflammatory effect on the walls of the intestine, which also helps to prevent possible recurrences of ulcerative colitis.
What exactly does Neuflor 56 billion consist of?
Neuflor 56 billion contains 8 different clinically-tested live microorganism strains, belonging to the Lactobacilli, Bifidobacteria and Streptococcus thermophilus groups. The probiotics contained in Neuflor 56 billion are selected for their high concentration, their specificity and their ability to colonise the entire gastrointestinal tract and rebalanc the gut microflora. The formula is gluten-free, lactose-free and GMO-free.
How can Neuflor 56 billion help improve gut health and prevent digestive problems?
Neuflor can help improve gut health and prevent digestive problems thanks to its formula containing live probiotics. Probiotics are micro-organisms that are beneficial to the body, by helping to maintain a balanced gut flora and promote digestion.
The probiotic organisms contained in Neuflor, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, can help reduce the symptoms of digestive disorders like diarrhoea, abdominal bloating, constipation and gastroesophageal reflux. Probiotics can also help prevent the onset of intestinal conditions like irritable bowel disease and ulcerative colitis.
What are the intestinal benefits of Neuflor ?
Neuflor 56 billion has the following beneficial effects on the intestine:
-
It improves the balance of the gut flora: it helps to reduce the growth of harmful bacteria in the gut and consequently promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria.
-
It reinforces the intestinal barrier: it can help strengthen the protective barrier of the intestine, thus reducing intestinal permeability and preventing harmful substances from entering the body.
-
It promotes digestive enzyme production: it can stimulate the production of digestive enzymes in the intestines, thus helping to improve the digestion of food.
-
It regulates intestinal transit: it can help to regulate intestinal transit and prevent constipation or diarrhoea.
