About
It is now known that intestinal health has a strong influence on the entire body. Recent research advances have demonstrated the involvement of the intestinal microbiota in the well-being of the intestine. Preventive medicine is increasingly perceived as important in medical and economic terms, particularly in the field of gastroenterology. An innovative approach to support gut health is based on the use of modulators of the intestinal microbiome or gastrointestinal barrier, such as probiotics or prebiotics. The rationale for this study is therefore based on the hypothesis that the combination of 11 probiotic strains, conveyed through the PROBAFLOR food supplement, can play a positive role in maintaining normal intestinal function, bringing benefits to the subject who takes this supplement.
Full description
