Description
Probiotic Formula Promotes healthy gut flora in adults during antibiotic intake and in adults with IBS
HMF® Replete contains five strains of proprietary human probiotics that promote normal intestinal microbiota following antibiotic therapy and decrease IBS symptoms in adults. Antibiotics alter intestinal microflora and can result in the proliferation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.1 HMF® Replete promotes normal intestinal microbiota following antibiotic therapy by further decreasing the pH and increasing mucin release to reduce pathogenic adherence to cells. Dysregulation of the intestinal microbiota has been identified as a significant contributing factor to the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) which affects nearly 5 million Canadians.1,2 This leads to malabsorption of bile acids –“ which aid in fat digestion –“ and in turn, increases fluid and mucus secretion into the colon for bile acid dilution.1 As Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria help reabsorb bile acids, less water enters the colon, decreasing diarrheal occurrence.1 In addition to this research-driven probiotic blend, HMF® Replete also provides fructooligosaccharides (FOS) from Chicorium intybus root, a prebiotic fibre to support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestines. HMF® Replete is offered in a great-tasting apricot-flavoured powder which is ideal for those who dislike or have trouble swallowing capsules.

Contains fructooligosaccharides (FOS)
HMF Replete supports healthy intestinal microflora throughout antibiotic use and in adults with IBS. The intestines contain more than 400 bacterial species, and bacterial balance needs to be maintained for healthy intestines. Antibiotics alter intestinal microflora, and can result in the proliferation of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Probiotics promote naturally healthy microflora and support normal intestinal microbiota following antibiotic therapy. IBS affects nearly 5 million Canadians and can also result from altered intestinal microflora. This leads to malabsorption of bile acids – which aid in fat digestion – and in turn, increases fluid and mucus secretion into the colon for bile acid dilution. As Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria help reabsorb bile acids, less water enters the colon, decreasing diarrheal occurrence. 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.
