The gastrointestinal tract is a perfectly balanced environment in which approximately 500 different strains of bacteria compete for space and nutrients. When there is a healthy balance (eubiosis), few symptoms occur. However, dysbiosis can occur when there is an overabundance of potentially harmful organisms. The natural balance of microflora can be disturbed by medications (such as antibiotics, oral contraceptives, etc.), excessive alcohol consumption or poor diet.
Probiotics have been studied extensively and show a wide range of gastrointestinal benefits by increasing the population of beneficial bacteria following an imbalance in the microflora, and appear to be able to help with lactose digestion. Since they are gut bacteria, their biosynthetic action on undigested carbohydrates can produce short-chain fatty acids that provide energy to the cells of the gut.
Because probiotics are living microorganisms, there are many challenges associated with the manufacture and distribution of probiotic supplements. In order for a probiotic to be effective, it must have a stable shelf life until the expiration date and be delivered precisely to the gut, where it can provide maximum benefit. BioShield technology® is an innovative manufacturing process designed to ensure consistent and reliable results. The microorganisms in Ortho Biotic are freeze-dried, protected and sealed from moisture, heat, light and oxygen. This allows the bacteria to remain dormant until exposed to moisture in the gastrointestinal tract. Through the use of advanced encapsulation technology, probiotic organisms are preserved and then released where they belong - in the microflora - for maximum benefit.
Adults and adolescents 13 years and older: Take one capsule daily. Take at least 2 to 3 hours before or after taking antibiotics.
Non-medicinal ingredients: Hypromellose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, gellan gum.
