DESCRIPTION D.L. Ultra Dophilus Powder, provided by Douglas
Laboratories®, contains over four billion beneficial
Lactobacillus acidophilus organisms per serving.
FUNCTIONS Oral supplements of live, beneficial intestinal microorganisms
for nutritional health and well-being are
known as probiotics. Probiotic dietary acidophilus
colonize the intestinal tract, depending on the specific
bacterium-to-host affinity. Bacteria are continually in
competition for colonization space. The original
bacterial colonies have an advantage over transient
bacteria. Nevertheless, the composition of the intestinal
microflora is dynamic and constantly changing.
If harmful microorganisms proliferate, the equilibrium
is disturbed, and it becomes difficult even for
indigenous bacteria to maintain their necessary territory
to colonize the intestine. Antibiotics tend to kill off both
beneficial and harmful bacteria, and thus may also
disturb the normal, healthy balance of intestinal
microorganisms.
When potent probiotic supplements, such as D.L. Ultra
Dophilus, are supplied regularly, chances are greatly
increased for establishing and maintaining a healthy
population of beneficial intestinal microorganisms.
Once established, a normal intestinal microflora rich in
lactobacilli creates acidic conditions that are unfavorable
for the settlement of pathogenic microorganisms
INDICATIONS D.L. Ultra Dophilus powder may be a useful dietary
supplement for those who wish to support their
intestinal microflora with meaningful amounts of
beneficial microorganisms.
