Clinical studies have shown that probiotics can be effective in addressing a range of health issues, from digestive problems to combating cavity-causing bacteria. However, common probiotic sources, such as yogurt, often fall short of delivering adequate probiotic levels. In fact, the probiotic content in yogurt can be up to 25 times below the minimum effective dose, meaning consumers might need to consume anywhere from two to 25 servings to potentially experience the advertised benefits. While kefir has been found to offer higher probiotic doses and a greater variety of strains, its exact benefits are still unclear due to limited strain-specific studies.
Researchers agree that probiotics play a vital role in health and recommend that an effective probiotic supplement should provide at least 10 billion CFU (colony-forming units) per serving.
Laktokhan® Probiotic Composition
Doctor's Choice Laktokhan® delivers 10 billion CFU per serving, featuring four human-derived strains of beneficial intestinal microflora: *Lactobacillus rhamnosus*, *Lactobacillus acidophilus*, *Lactobacillus casei*, and *Bifidobacterium longum*. These probiotic strains work synergistically to prevent harmful bacteria from multiplying in the gut, promoting a balanced and healthy digestive system. The use of antibiotics often disrupts this balance, weakening the immune system and leading to digestive issues. Laktokhan® restores the body's natural balance of good bacteria, supporting both digestive function and immune health.
Advanced Packaging for Maximum Potency
A key feature of Laktokhan® is its innovative packaging, designed to preserve the potency of live bacterial cultures. Exposure to oxygen begins to degrade probiotics immediately after a product is opened, but Laktokhan® utilizes individual blister packs that hermetically seal each capsule, preventing oxidation and ensuring maximum potency. This makes it shelf-stable for up to three years, and it remains effective even in temperatures up to 30°C, making it an ideal choice for travel.
Superior Human Strains for Enhanced Benefits
Not all human-sourced probiotic strains are the same. The gastrointestinal microflora is a complex community, and probiotics that originate from human strains are best suited to thrive in the human gut. These strains adapt to changes in lifestyle, diet, and environmental factors, ensuring they continue to support gut health effectively. Most of the strains in Laktokhan® are resistant to stomach acid and bile, allowing them to colonize the gut for longer-lasting benefits.
Inulin: A Prebiotic for Sustained Probiotic Health
Laktokhan® also contains inulin, a prebiotic that nourishes beneficial bacteria without feeding harmful organisms. Inulin is derived naturally from chicory root, providing a sustainable energy source for probiotics to thrive. Unlike other prebiotics like FOS (fructooligosaccharides), inulin does not promote the growth of undesirable bacteria or yeast. Research has shown that inulin can also help lower cholesterol levels, making it an added benefit for overall health.
Comprehensive Gut Health Support
By maintaining a healthy balance of good and harmful bacteria, Laktokhan® helps manage acute infectious diarrhea and reduces gastrointestinal issues such as diarrhea and nausea, especially during antibiotic use. Laktokhan® is a completely vegan formula, with all-natural ingredients carefully sourced to ensure optimal health benefits.
