Product Details
- Immunity: Probiotics help improve immunity by stimulating the activity of immune cells. Lactobacilli elicits immune responses through binding to receptors present on immune cells and Bifidobacterium help regulate immune responses by balancing pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines
- Anti-Oxidation Modulation: Probiotics modulate antioxidation by producing antioxidant metabolites, up-regulate hosts antioxidase activities and down-regulate enzymes involved in the production of free radicals; thus, it may help control the damaging effects of free radicals
- Anti-inflammation: Probiotics help control inflammation by modulating inflammatory signaling pathways and help decrease the synthesis of inflammatory substance prostaglandin
- Healthy gut flora: Lactobacilli and Bifidobacterium are prominent probiotics of the intestine and they may help restore healthy gut flora by limiting the growth and colony formation of harmful bacteria. They secrete antimicrobial compounds that suppress the growth of disease-causing microbes
- Clinically studied strains: Multiple strains of probiotic Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria spp in HK® Pre+Probiotics are clinically studied that are found to be safe and effective
The human body harbors a large number of good bacteria, which are also known as probiotics. Probiotics protect our body from the penetration of pathogenic microbes and suppress their multiplication by competing with food and space. Probiotics interact with the immune system and help maintain their activity. However, bad bacteria interact with the immune system differently and promotes inflammatory reactions leading to various diseases. Stress, high-fat diets, sugar, excessive alcohol intake, and frequent use of antibiotics have shown to disturb the balance of good bacteria, which may result in various diseases.
HK® Pre+Probiotics contains multiple strains of probiotic Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria spp. Supplementation of HK® Pre+Probiotcs may help improve immunity by re-establishing the good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, HK® Pre+ Probiotics contain prebiotic fructooligosaccharides(FOS), which is a soluble fiber that induces the growth of probiotics.
