DESCRIPTION
17-strain probiotic combination
HMF® Multi Strain Powder offers a comprehensive combination of 17 proprietary probiotic strains. Each convenient, once-daily serving provides 10 strains of Lactobacilli and seven strains of Bifidobacteria to promote colonization in both the small and large intestines.1 In one placebo-controlled trial, daily supplementation with HN019, a probiotic strain found in HMF® Multi Strain Powder, promoted a healthy gut flora.2 It significantly increased Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli counts, while reducing the population of Enterobacteria (a genus that includes many pathogenic bacteria).2 Another trial demonstrated that this strain supported gastrointestinal health as measured by improved whole gut transit time and abdominal comfort scores.3 Similarly, HMF® Multi Strain Powder contains CUL-60, CUL-21, CUL- 34 and CUL-20, which have been demonstrated in clinical trials to support intestinal comfort and promote a healthy microflora balance in the gastrointestinal tract.4-6 HMF® Multi Strain Powder is a great alternative for adults and children who dislike or have difficulty swallowing capsules.
