Solgar Ultibio Plus is a non-dairy formula containing Lactobacillus plantarum LP299v™. Each capsule provides 30 billion microorganisms of this specially cultured strain; a beneficial microorganism which survives stomach acidity and has over a decade of scientific review behind it. Lactobacillus plantarum LP299v™ is a strain of friendly bacteria which can naturally be found in the intestines. The intestines are responsible for digesting food, producing certain vitamins and assisting the immune system. The strains used in Solgar Ultibio Plus has been researched for over 10 years. Studies have revealed the ability of this specific strain to survive the harsh stomach acid following digestion so it is delivered directly into the digestive system. The digestive system is home to trillions of bacteria and they support the gut to be healthy, as well as aiding the immune system. Eating fermented foods such as yogurt, tempeh, cheese and sauerkraut, can help top up the level of friendly bacteria. If your diet doesn’t contain fermented foods, you might want to consider taking a supplement. Solgar Ultibio Plus is a safe way to increase the level of friendly bacteria in your gut. One vegetable capsule a day will provide 30 billion of microorganisms of this well researched strain.
