Product description

BactoFlor^® SIB is the small-intestine-specialised microbiotic from Intercell Pharma's BactoFlor^® portfolio. The abbreviation "SIB" stands for small intestine bacteria. The product combines four typical representatives of microcultures that can settle specifically in this part of the intestine and are an important component of a natural small intestinal flora.

Each capsule contains four complementary bacterial cultures: Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei as typical representatives of the small intestinal flora, plus Enterococcus faecium and Bacillus subtilis from complementary genera of microbiotic bacteria. All four strains have natural, tested gastric acid stability – they pass through the stomach intact, reach the intestine viable and require no gastric acid-resistant coating of the capsule. They are therefore particularly robust cultures with excellent microbiotic properties.

The bacterial spectrum is complemented by the yeast culture Saccharomyces boulardii. It belongs to a different biological group than the bacterial cultures and extends the formula with a microbiotic yeast.

With a total of 10 billion colony-forming units (CFU) per capsule – 8 billion from the bacterial cultures and 2 billion from Saccharomyces boulardii – BactoFlor^® SIB is highly concentrated. As with all BactoFlor^® products, this is the guaranteed viable cell count until the end of the shelf life, made possible by the microencapsulation process and the high-barrier protective blister. This special packaging is impermeable to the influence of oxygen and water vapour during storage and protects the microcultures particularly well.

Storage advice

Please store in a cool place (for example in the refrigerator), not above 25 °C, dry and out of the reach of young children. Thanks to the microencapsulation process and the high-barrier protective blister, the declared viable cell count of 10 billion CFU per capsule is maintained until the end of the shelf life.

General notes

BactoFlor^® SIB is manufactured in Germany. Intercell Pharma is certified to the international standards FSSC 22000 (food safety) and ISO 14001 (environmental management) by the testing institute SGS.

Additional quality assurance is provided through individual weighing: every single BactoFlor^® SIB capsule is checked separately for its weight and is subject to strict tolerances (± 5 %). This ensures that each capsule contains a constant and exact quantity of microcultures.

BactoFlor^® SIB is a dietary supplement. Nutritional supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. Make sure you maintain a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.
