HLC High Potency Powder is a unique combination of four strains of proprietary, human-sourced probiotics and fructooligosaccharides (FOS) that helps to promote gastrointestinal health in adults. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 22 adults, daily supplementation with a probiotic containing Lactobacillus acidophilus supported a healthy microflora balance. Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, the most commonly used probiotics, help colonize the intestines and mediate the permeability of epithelial cells. After they are fermented by microbes in the colon, prebiotics – including FOS – support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon and further maintain and support the barrier function of intestinal epithelial cells. Their fermentation can result in the production of short chain fatty acids, including butyrate, the preferred energy source of colon cells.*
