Swanson Lactobacillus Rhamnosus with FOS - 5 Billion CFU - 60 Vegan Capsules

What is Lactobacillus rhamnosus?

Lactobacillus rhamnosus is a widely studied probiotic strain that is part of the human intestinal microbiota. It is naturally found in the digestive tract and contributes to the balance of gut flora. At Swanson, we have combined this strain with FOS (fructooligosaccharides), a prebiotic that serves as food for beneficial bacteria, enhancing their action.

How does this probiotic with FOS work?

This supplement provides 5 billion CFU (colony-forming units) of Lactobacillus rhamnosus per capsule, along with 100 mg of NutraFlora® FOS, a short-chain prebiotic that promotes the proliferation of good bacteria in the gut. The combination of probiotic and prebiotic (symbiotic) helps maintain a healthy intestinal environment. In addition, the capsules are stomach acid resistant, ensuring that the bacteria reach the small and large intestines alive.

Benefits for digestive health

Taking probiotics like Lactobacillus rhamnosus can help maintain the balance of gut flora during travel, dietary changes, or stress situations. This supplement can also contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system, as a significant part of the body's defenses resides in the gut. Users often notice an improvement in digestive regularity and a reduction in occasional discomforts such as bloating.

Why choose acid-resistant capsules?

Many probiotics are destroyed in the stomach due to gastric acids. Swanson capsules are designed with a technology that protects them until they reach the intestine, where they can act effectively. In addition, they are vegan, making them suitable for people on plant-based diets. The inclusion of FOS not only feeds the bacteria but also promotes the absorption of minerals such as calcium.
