Description

For people who are taking antibiotics, or who have recently finished an antibiotic course, the strains of natural bacteria in this supplement are especially selected for their suitability and safety. The two high quality strains of natural bacteria, Lactobacillus acidophilus Rosell-52 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus Rosell-11, have been extremely well-researched, and are scientifically proven to survive to reach the gut alive, even during a course of antibiotics.

Lactobacillus acidophilus Rosell-52 is a natural resident of the intestinal microflora; this specific strain from OptiBac has been well studied to survive gastric acidity and bile salts expected at mealtimes and to reach the intestines without damage. Lactobacillus rhamnosus Rosell-11 is a natural component of the friendly bacteria in the intestines; this species is one of the most studied in the world of live cultures. L. rhamnosus Rosell-11 has been proven to resist bile and gastric acidity over pH 3 - therefore if taken at mealtimes (when pH is around 4), it will pass through the stomach without being damaged.

It is important to note that this supplement, unlike many other live cultures products, does not require refrigeration due to improvements in freeze drying techniques and the strains within the product that are naturally robust to survive harsher conditions.

Available in one pack size of 10 capsules of live cultures. Each capsule provides a count of over 4 billion natural bacteria.

This is a food supplement and it is not intended to prevent, treat, nor diagnose any medical conditions.

About Optibac Probiotics

The OptiBac Probiotics brand was created in 2004 by three siblings and their father, all with a passion for health & wellbeing. The brand specialises entirely in live cultures and considers this to be their expertise, with a particular emphasis on how different strains (specific types of live cultures) work in different ways. The strains found within OptiBac Probiotics are of the highest quality, and each strain undergoes rigorous testing - so you can be confident you'll find a high quality supplement for your individual needs.

OptiBac Probiotics has partnered with some of the world-leading institutes in the field, and is dedicated to developing an expert range of the highest quality. The range boasts some of the most researched strains in the world. The company are completely transparent when it comes to the make-up of their products, and, unlike many others, they cite not only the microorganism's family and species, but the strain as well. OptiBac Probiotics is proud to be the brand that introduced a number of strains to the UK, including pure Saccharomyces boulardii, Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14.

Every day, customers from all around the world review OptiBac Probiotics and comment on how much they enjoy using the products. Why not try them yourself and see what you think?

    Let’s Hear What Our Customers Have To Say

    Product and price are both 5 star. Courier awful. Tracking less than useless but seriously, these items are fabulous. And this was definitely the best price I’ve seen. I’ll put up with the longer delivery time. It’s not the seller’s fault at all. I’m telling all my T2D friends about these. The only crisp type snack...

    Moya D.Verified buyer
    Serious Pig Snacking Cheese Classic 24g - 12 Pack

    Good quality product, higher dha/epa than others, being in a foiled pouch helps keep fresh and doesn't allow light to oxidise as fast as clear packaging. Recommended.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    We're a UK health retailer that has been supplying trusted wellness brands since 2014. We stock a wide range of supplements, natural foods and wellbeing products from established brands, all in one place, with free UK tracked delivery on orders over £25 and 60-day free returns. Our team is on hand by email and live chat if you need help choosing.

    Food-first means we believe everyday nutrition is the foundation of wellbeing. A varied, balanced diet comes first, and supplements are there to support it, not replace it. That's why our range includes healthy foods, drinks and pantry staples alongside vitamins and supplements.

    Start with the product description, ingredients and directions on each page. Our buying guides on the journal explain the differences between forms and strengths for popular supplements such as magnesium, vitamin D and probiotics. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or take medication, please speak to your GP or pharmacist before starting a new supplement. Our team can help with product questions, but we can't give medical advice.

    Many people combine supplements as part of a daily routine. Check the labels, though, to avoid taking more of the same nutrient than intended, as some vitamins and minerals appear in several products. Never exceed the recommended intake on each label. If you take prescription medication or have a health condition, check with your GP or pharmacist before combining supplements.

    We choose brands and products based on quality, customer demand and trusted manufacturing standards. Our range focuses on established health and wellness brands. We keep it under review, adding new products our customers ask for and removing ones that don't meet our standards.

    We stock products from well-known health and wellness brands. Orders are dispatched from our UK base Monday to Friday and on Sundays. Each product page shows the brand, ingredients and any dietary information, such as vegan or vegetarian suitability, where the manufacturer provides it.

    Yes. Our team is happy to help with product questions by email at customerservices@healthplusliving.com or via live chat on the site. You can also browse by routine (Fuel, Move, Focus, Unwind and Sleep) to find products grouped around what you're looking to support. For advice about your health, please speak to your GP or pharmacist.
