This Optibac probiotic provides essential support to the digestive system by supplying 5 billion digestive aiding microorganisms. This natural food supplement may help to prevent diarrhoea, travel tummy, bloating and flatulence after eating. Particularly beneficial after an antibiotic. It contains the strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus Rosell-11 & Lactobacillus acidophilus Rosell-52 which are both proven to reach the gut alive, even when taken during a course of antibiotics.
Saccharomyces Boulardii is a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast). This microorganism has been acclaimed by many nutritional experts for its digestive aiding properties. Each capsule contains a massive 5 billion live cultures.
Saccharomyces Boulardii has a strong resistance to heat, humidity and stomach acidity levels. The ability of the live cultures to resist these factors ensures more of them arrive safely at the gut.

Natural food supplement suitable for adults and children (from 1 year onwards) with the following recommendations:

  • Take 1 to 4 capsules depending on severity of symptoms and up to 6 capsules daily, or as professionally directed.
  • For young children the dose should be lowered.
  • If taking anti-fungals, take separately (at least 2 hours apart).
  • Drink plenty of water with your course of live cultures.
  • For anyone unable to swallow capsules, capsule can be opened and contents mixed with a cold meal or beverage.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a healthy diet and lifestyle. Those with serious medical conditions should consult their doctor before use. OptiBac will not cause dependency, and may be used on an ongoing basis.
