IBS affects nearly 5 million Canadians and can result from altered intestinal microflora.^1,2 Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria promote healthy intestinal microflora and increase the reabsorption of bile salts, which is impaired in IBS.¹ This results in less water entering the colon to dilute the bile salts, decreasing water excretion and the occurrence of diarrhea.¹ In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 52 adults with IBS, daily supplementation with CUL-60, CUL-21, CUL-20 and CUL-34 significantly improved quality of life and bowel habit satisfaction scores, and decreased the number of days with pain within 10 weeks.³ Antibiotics also alter intestinal microflora, and can result in the proliferation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.¹ HMF Replenish Capsules promote normal intestinal microbiota following antibiotic therapy by further decreasing the pH and increasing mucin release to prevent pathogenic adherence to cells.^4,5
