SYNTOL AMD Advanced Microflora Delivery

Syntol Synbiotic

Probiotic originates from the Greek, meaning for life, and is medically referred to as a group of friendly bacteria or microflora. Trillions of bacteria and other microbes inhabit our digestive tract making it possible to digest food, absorb nutrients, and fight off infections and diseases. The human digestive tract carries over 400 distinct microorganisms. The number of microorganisms in the body far exceeds the number of tissue cells, making up nearly four pounds of body weight.

Syntol contains three billion Colony Forming Units (CFU) of various non-competing strains of bacteria. Syntol is a combination of probiotics and prebiotics, more commonly referred to and classified as synbiotics. Prebiotics are non-digestible food ingredients that stimulate the growth and activity of the probiotics. These prebiotics create the essential environments for probiotics as well as our own indigenous bacteria to flourish. Syntol uses Fructo-Oligosaccharides (FOS) as a prebiotic. FOS is completely resistant to bodily digestion, passing safely through the stomach and small intestine where it can then stimulate the growth of probiotics and Bifidobacterium in the large intestine.

One of the probiotic bacterial strains is the potent spore forming L. sporogenes. Probiotic spores are dormant life forms that protect the bacteria from acidic conditions as well as extreme heat and cold. These spores then attach themselves to the inside of the intestinal mucosa and begin to germinate, forming probiotic bacteria. Spore germination technology is an extremely dependable means for delivering probiotics in less than ideal conditions. Most bacteria are susceptible to any acidic pH range, mainly thriving in the more alkaline lower GI. However, spores are able to withstand a broader range of variables in regards to pH and temperature ranges. Syntol also facilitates an extremely oxygenated environment providing the perfect conditions for indigenous bacterial growth.
