MASUROTA® 50 MLD 20 Capsules

MASUROTA® is a probiotic high dosage consortium of Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium short, Bifidobacterium longum, Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus gasseri, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Entertoccccus faecium and Streptococcus thermophilus, plus Inulin, a prebiotic promoting the growth/activity of the bacterial flora.

Probiotics (pro-bios: pro-life) are "live micro-organisms which, when administered in adequate quantities, bring a benefit to the health of the host" and their use dates back to the early 1900s. To be defined as probiotic, a micro-organism must have very specific characteristics:

• being normally present in our intestines, not give allergic or otherwise harmful reactions;
• belong to the list of bacterial species presumptively qualified as safe by EFSA. In any case, probiotic micro-organisms must not be carriers of acquired and/or transmissible antibiotic resistance;
• be active, persistent (able to adhere to intestinal walls and colonise) and viable (able to reproduce) in the intestine in sufficient quantity to justify any beneficial effects observed in efficacy studies;
• be capable of conferring a proven physiological benefit (FAO/WHO document on the evaluation of probiotics for food use).

MASUROTA® is packaged in clear, vegetarian, gastro-resistant DRcaps. This avoids the use of bleaching agents (titanium dioxide). The capsules are also suitable for vegetarians and certified Halal and Kosher. DRcaps technology also masks unpleasant odours or flavours and protects the probiotics from gastric acidity, ensuring they arrive alive and viable in the intestinal tract, maintaining their effectiveness.
