Jarrow Ultra Jarro-Dophilus is an advanced probiotic complex with 50 billion units forming a colony in each capsule. Owing to the content of 10 different bacterial strains, it is an extremely universal formula with a wide range of health benefits.

The supplement contains strains with confirmed efficacy only. Because of that, it provides solid and effective support for body functions. It helps restore the optimal composition of intestinal microbiota which is not only vital to the immune and digestive system but also functioning of almost all systems of the human body. Every day we learn new scientific studies which indicate increasing effectiveness of probiotic bacteria. The formula contains the following strains:

Lactobacillus acidophilus – a strain of Lactobacillales with the ability to carry out lactic acid fermentation and convert lactose into lactic acid. It may support impaired digestion of this simple sugar in the intestines. It shows a great ability to colonise intestinal microflora and aids in restoring eubiosis. It is involved in the synthesis of B vitamins. In addition, it supports the immune system by increasing intestinal barrier efficiency and synthesising anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Lactobacillus rhamnosus – a probiotic strain with antibacterial properties. It limits the proliferation of harmful bacteria in the digestive system. It is indicated as an effective agent for preventing diarrhoea of different aetiology. Studies demonstrate also that L. rhamnosus affects significantly the development of excessive body weight. The supplementation with this strain is so effective that it has been applied for a patent as a medicine for obesity. What is more, these bacteria have the ability to reduce leakage in the intestines, both induced by irritable bowel syndrome and consuming alcohol. L. rhamnosus has an impact on the synthesis of gamma-aminobutyric acid and that is why it is classified as a psychobiotic.

Lactobacillus helveticus – one of the three bacterial strains found in the formula which represent psychobiotics. The name refers also to strains which affect the nervous system function. L. helveticus has a beneficial effect on emotional states due to the ability to synthesise gamma-aminobutyric acid. The supplementation with this strain may lower cortisol levels. In addition, it may have an anti-inflammatory effect.

Lactobacillus casei – a strain of Lactobacillales capable of conducting glucose homofermentation. It shows the ability to increase efficiency of the intestinal barrier and promote immune function. It boosts the body’s resistance to infections. Some studies show that it shortens the duration of intestinal bacterial infections. L. casei influences also positively the body’s tolerance to sugars because it increases insulin sensitivity of cells. Because of that, it is indicated as a probiotic strain which promotes weight loss.

Lactobacillus paracasei – a strain of probiotic bacteria used mainly for stimulating immune function. It does not only support the immune system by ensuring leaktightness of the intestinal barrier but also due to its mechanisms of action. It stimulates lymphocyte proliferation and NK cell production. Consequently, it reduces the risk of body infections and supports their treatment. It is used successfully in the treatment of digestive disorders. It helps cure diarrhoea and reduces symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.

Lactobacillus plantarum – a bacterial strain which carries out lactic acid fermentation. It strengthens immune function and has a great ability to reduce the amount of IgE antibodies, as shown in studies. It is used as an important element in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. It helps reduce symptoms of the disease and has thus also a beneficial effect on efficiency of the digestive system. Its high efficacy in treating irritable bowel syndrome is demonstrated by the studies indicating an abnormal amount of L. plantarum in intestinal microflora of patients with IBS. Because of that, this strain helps not only treat symptoms of the disease but also eliminate its causes.

Lactobacillus salivarius – an enzyme promoting lactose digestion owing to its ability to produce the enzyme lactase. It may optimise the lipid profile, lowers total cholesterol and triglyceride levels and improves the HDL-LDL ratio. It supports functions of the intestinal microflora, colonises it and has antibacterial properties. What is more, this strain has a beneficial effect on dental health.

Bifidobacterium lactis – a probiotic strain with exceptional abilities to promote immune function. It supports immune response and inhibits proliferation of bacteria which are not a part of human physiological microflora. In addition, the strain is very effective in treating irritable bowel syndrome. It influences positively digestive function and reduces digestive discomfort. It has a beneficial effect on mental function, reduces symptoms of depression and states of anxiety.

Bifidobacterium breve – this strain is recommended especially to individuals with celiac disease due to the ability to limit the synthesis of TNF-alpha cytokines. It is also suggested to fight against obesity. It promotes sugar and fat metabolism, thereby helping reduce body mass. It may also optimise the lipid profile which is often abnormal in obese people. Furthermore, Bifidobacterium breve bacteria are used for supporting the body’s immunity.

Bifidobacterium longum – the third strain in this supplement which belongs to psychobiotics. It is shown to be active in the gut-brain axis and has thus a beneficial effect on the nervous system function. Like L. helveticus, it promotes GABA synthesis and helps reduce cortisol levels. There are studies which shows the ability of B.longum to prevent the development of cancer. What is more, the supplementation with this strain influences positively the condition of the skin.

To sum up, Jarrow Ultra Jarro-Dophilus is a probiotic formula which stands out from the competition due to a wide spectrum of action, obtained by the content of 10 strain with scientifically proven effectiveness. High efficacy of the supplement is ensured also by the amount of provided bacteria, which is 50 billion per capsule. Because of that, the product is the optimal choice for all individuals taking care of their health.
