$FOGC ~ BIG WINNER ~ We are developing a better option…
With Lacto-Freedom™ probiotic, patients may enjoy dairy products and lactose containing products without experiencing abdominal pain, gas, abdominal bloating, diarrhea, and nausea…and without the hassle of taking lactase supplements with every lactose containing meal. The patient would take this probiotic for a short amount of time (24 hours) and the effects last for 3 months or more.
How it works:
The intestinal lining is made up of billions of bacteria, both good and bad. Probiotics are supplements which contain “good” bacteria and when consumed add beneficial bacteria to the intestines. We developed a probiotic that produces lactase and stays in the intestines for at least three months. When lactose intolerant test animals consumed this probiotic for 24 hours, lactase was produced in the animals’ intestines and this allowed the lactose to be broken down and digested. It worked for the entire duration of the three-month study.
The test results were very impressive and the probiotic performed even better when the test animals were treated with an antibiotic beforehand. This pre-treatment step reduced the amount of bacteria already in the intestines and allowed the probiotic’s good bacteria to colonize more effectively.
