How Blackmores Acidophilus Bifidus works
Keeping intestinal bacteria in balance plays an important role in our general health and wellbeing. The 'good bacteria aid digestion and stimulate the immune response.
Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium
animalis are important beneficial bacteria, which help
to stabilise and maintain healthy gut flora . These
bacteria maintain intestinal health by inhibiting the
overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria through competition
for attachment sites and nutrients, as well as producing
acids that slow down the growth of pathogenic bacteria.
