Support healthy bowel function.Reduce constipation and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms via modulation of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), methane levels, short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) (i.e. butyrate), intestinal barrier integrity and inflammation.Low reactive, FODMAP free, powdered prebiotic and probiotic food for sensitive patients.
Reduction of chronic constipation and IBS symptoms: Lactobacillus plantarum (299v) is extensively researched and shown to reduce a range of IBS symptoms. PHGG is a selective prebiotic, used as a fuel by butyrate producing bacteria.
SIBO, methane and butyrate regulation; PHGG is fermented by large intestinal commensal bacteria increasing SCFA production particularly butyrate, as well as assisting colonic blood flow and epithelial repair. PHGG influences gut motility, secretions and vagal modulation of contraction, and has been shown to reduce methane levels. Research of PHGG has also shown other benefits, including:
Reduced methane excretionImproved effectiveness of antibiotic SIBO treatment (when used with PHGG)Improvements in chronic constipation
Visceral hypersensitivity, abdominal pain and inflammation; Both L. plantarum (299v) and PHGG have been shown to reduce abdominal pain by 50%, which can be a key symptom driving patients to seek health advice.
