Lactobacillus acidophilus – lactic acid bacteria from the Lactobacillus family. It occurs in milk products especially in yoghurts, has positive impact on the human body by colonization of gastrointestinal wall.

Also, it creates so called health gut flora (bacterial) which is a natural barrier and competition in nutrients gain by harmful pathogens and microorganisms.

It supports the immune system by IgA antibodies stimulation, also is able to produce natural antibiotics such as lactocidin, acidophilin. It is especially important in creation of antibacterial barrier against to Staphylococcus aureus, salmonella, escherichia coli and antifungal against candidiasis.

This bacteria is classified as probiotic, which means that this selected bacteria is administrated orally, it has positive effect on the human body, thanks to immunomodulatory properties which rebuilds physiological flora, and the synthesis some of essential substances and vitamins as well. It takes part in niacin synthesis, folic acid and vitamin B6, supports digestion by lactose conversion in lactic acid, in the process – so called “milk fermentation”.

Bifidobacterium lactis – rod-shaped probiotic bacteria in large intestine. Identified in human milk which supports growth of this strain in child’s intestine. It enhances its immune system and builds gut flora ensuring proper composition and proportion. Bacteria protects organism against germs causing diseases, helps to maintain a proper level of B-group vitamins and vitamin K2, has ability to support interleukin 10 production which has anti-inflammatory properties.

Bifidobacterium longum – considered as one of the most important probiotic bacteria in the human body. As an ingredient of human milk, it takes part in a proper child’s development. It reduces inflammations in the human body and reduces cortisol level – catabolic hormone which is released as a response to stress, often above the average in people who suffers on depression. It has an ability to produce B-group vitamins, digestive enzymes, casein phosphatase and lysozyme – a hydrolytic enzyme which is one of the mechanisms of the immune system.
