This supplement has been created using digestive enzymes to help maintain a healthy digestive system. The main families of digestive enzymes are amylase, which digest carbohydrates, protease, which digest protein, and lipase, which digest fat. Super enzymes contain these enzymes plus, bromalain and papain, found in pineapples and unripe papayas. We've also added, lactase, sucrase, cellulase and maltase to give a complete digestive complex. Low stomach acid may be a cause of indigestion. Being overweight, pregnant or a smoker weakens our ability to produce stomach acids, which break down our food. Certain foods, drinks, or stress may disrupt the action of the stomach and the intestines necessary for digestion.
Try not talking or drinking while eating, which causes air to be swallowed; this leads to bloating and indigestion. Try eating little and often to minimise the production of stomach acids. Super enzymes, taken while eating, or after meals, will help break down food and help digestion.
Daily probiotic support means normalising a healthy balance of friendly bacteria throughout the entire intestinal tract. With OptiBac Probiotics, the different strains (or types) of friendly bacteria along with the prebiotics have been specifically chosen for the different clinically proven health benefits they convey in the different parts of the small and large (colon) intestine.
OptiBac Probiotics For daily wellbeing provides a high potency and select variety of well researched and documented probiotic strains. In addition For daily wellbeing is free from sugars, fats, preservatives or colourings that may be found in some daily probiotic foods and drinks.
Solo's high quality, super acidophilus supplement, containing acidophilus and bifido bacteria organisms. Taking Acidophilus offers the beneficial probiotics without the need to eat a yoghurt or drink dairy products. The Bulgarians consumed the first organisms, implicated in providing benefits to health, first found in yogurt preparations. They believed that this was the source of improved health.
Acidophilus can also improve digestion, produce vitamins, and increase resistance to infections. Probiotics can also relieve symptoms of (IBS), irritable bowel syndrome. Stress, antibiotics and prescription drugs can severely deplete the friendly flora in the gut. Try a course for 3 months and see the difference in general health and well-being.

Tormentil has a high tannin content which gives it a distinct astringent action on the digestive tract. Tannins bind to the proteins present in the irritated lining of the bowel, forming a layer which soothes and, at the same time, provides a barrier against infective organisms and toxins. They also slow down the frequency of bowel motions, encouraging the healing of an inflamed bowel.

Aloe Vera works gently to break down impacted food in the bowel and cleanse the bowel at the same time, reversing the effects of constipation. Aloe Pura Aloe Vera Digestive Aid Juice is a gentle way of cleansing the colon without having to resort to colonic irrigation.
Digestive enzymes are secreted into the digestive tract to break down food matter into its component nutrients. These can then be absorbed across the gut wall into the bloodstream. If this enzyme system does not work effectively, undigested food passing into the large intestine will be fermented by the resident bacteria, causing flatulence, bloating and diarrhoea. We have chosen enzymes that are largely resistant to degradation caused by the highly acidic conditions in the stomach so that they may reach the small intestine where most digestion takes place. Supplied in gelatin-free capsules.
