Probiotics

Probiotics should be taken especially after antibiotic treatments (to replenish intestinal flora), during periods of digestive stress, travel, gastroenteritis or microbiota imbalances. For preventive and general well-being, they can be taken daily, preferably 30 minutes before a meal.

Probiotics are beneficial live bacteria that colonise the gut. Prebiotics are non-digestible fibres that serve as food for these bacteria, promoting their growth and activity. When used together (symbiotics), they have a more potent synergistic effect on gut microbiota health.

It depends on the strain and the encapsulation technology. Some probiotics (such as those from Klaire Labs) require refrigeration to maintain bacterial viability. Others are stabilized by lyophilization technology and can be stored at room temperature. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on the label.
