The GI tract is home to trillions of microbes that play a critical role in digestion, immune support, and nutrient absorption. Combocillus is formulated to help maintain microbial diversity, especially during times of change such as dietary adjustments, stress, or medication use.
These strains are part of the normal microbial populations of the gastrointestinal system and are also found in other areas, such as the vaginal environment.
Each scoop contains the following live bacterial strains:
Lactobacillus bulgaricus- LMG 27274 (THT 030301)
Lactobacillus acidophilus- LMG 8151 (THT 030101)
Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus -LMG 25626 (THT 030903)
Lacticaseibacillus casei- LMG 6904 (THT 030401)
Bifidobacterium breve- LMG 11613 (THT 010601)
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum- LMG 26367 (THT 030702)
Bifidobacterium bifidum- LMG 25628 (THT 010101)
Each strain in Metabolics Combocillus Powder is genetically identified and fully traceable, with both LMG and THT codes provided for those wishing to explore the scientific literature further. They are documented to survive the acidic environment of the stomach, with proven stability at pH levels between 2.5 and 4. Additionally, they have demonstrated resistance to bile salts, supporting their ability to reach and persist in the intestinal tract.
All strains are non-GMO, non-irradiated, and carry QPS (Qualified Presumption of Safety) status, as recognised by both UK and EFSA safety standards.
Metabolics Combocillus Powder is provided in a clean, flavourless powder that dissolves easily in water or juice, making it ideal for those who prefer alternatives to capsules or tablets.
A note on maltodextrin: This is not added by Metabolics; rather, it is used by the manufacturer of the bacterial strains as a necessary excipient and diluent to ensure the correct number of CFUs per serving. The maltodextrin used is high-quality, pharma-grade, and carefully selected to ensure purity and effectiveness in stabilising the strains.
