Bifidobacterium bifidum, lactobacillus plantarum 8P-A3 (Florin Forte) powder – [20 sachets]

BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

Florin forte restores the normal microflora of the human body, inhibits the activity of pathogens of infectious diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and upper respiratory tract on account of the included in the preparation live probiotic bacteria: bifidobacteria (Bifidobacterium bifidum), sorbed in the form of microcolumns, and lactobacilli (Lactobacillus plantarum).

The combined action of bifidobacteria sorbed on activated carbon in the form of microcolumns and lactobacilli provides accelerated normalization of the quantitative and qualitative composition, metabolic and functional activity of the microflora, increase the suppressive effect on pathogens of acute intestinal infections, acute respiratory viral infections and their removal from the body, increases nonspecific resistance.

Bifidobacterium bifidum contained in the product have antimicrobial action due to antagonistic activity towards pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic microorganisms, immunomodulatory action – they stimulate the synthesis of immunoglobulins, interferons, cytokines, take part in the formation of local immunity, activate mucous membrane repair and parietal digestion, produce enzymes, short-chain fatty acids and lactic acid. Bifidobacteria are biosorbents, neutralize toxins, accumulate toxic substances and remove them from the body.

Lactobacillus inhibit the growth of pathogens through the production of lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, lysozyme, are involved in the metabolism of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, nucleic and bile acids, activate the immune system, prevent the formation of long-term intestinal diseases by increasing the overall resistance of the body. Lactobacillus has hypocholesterolemic effect, reduces the redox potential, and binds bifidobacteria harmful oxygen radicals.

Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium bifidum have strong suppressive effect against rotavirus and hemolytic Escherichia coli, produce antibiotic-like substances – bacteriocins, are involved in the synthesis of vitamins, use lactose during life as the main source of nutrition.

It is not absorbed into the bloodstream.
