The digestive process is completed in the colon, where water is soluble nutrients are absorbed &amp; certain vitamins are synthesised. The colon is also responsible for the elimination of body wastes including those from food. In a healthy colon, all this is achieved with the help of billions of friendly resident bacteria.

		<description><![CDATA[<DIV>&nbsp;<FONT size="2"><STRONG>What is so unique about the formulat of Lifestream Bowel <I>Biotics </I>?</STRONG></FONT> </DIV>  <DIV><FONT size="2">Lifestream Bowel<EM>Biotics </EM>&nbsp; has been developed to help with a healthy balanced diet to keep the bowels healthy in a totally natural way. In order to achieve this, Lifestream&nbsp;Bowel<I>Biotics </I>&nbsp; has&nbsp;three specific natural ingredients. These are: </FONT></DIV>  <DIV>  <OL>  <LI><FONT size="2"><FONT color="#0000ff">Fibre (Psyllium husks)</FONT>&nbsp; </FONT>  <LI><A href="#Prebiotics"><FONT color="#0000ff" size="2">Prebiotics (Inulin)</FONT></A><FONT size="2"> </FONT>  <LI><A href="#Probiotics"><FONT color="#0000ff" size="2">Probiotics (Lactobacilli &amp; Bifidobacteria)</FONT></A><FONT size="2"> </FONT></LI></OL>  <P><FONT size="2">All of these ingredients are from natural sources only. All are gentle in action and are not absorbed by the body, making Lifestream&nbsp;Bowel<I>Biotics </I>&nbsp; suitable for regular, everyday use.</FONT></P><FONT size="2">  <H3><A name="Fibre"></A><FONT size="2">1. Fibre (Psyllium Husks)</FONT> </H3>  <P>Fibre is important in the diet to ensure that waste material is moved efficiently and regularly through the colon so that undigested matter is not left for long periods in the bowel. Typically most fibre in our diet comes from wheat bran (present in most breads and cereals) but this is unsuitable for those who are allergic or intolerant to wheat products. The fibre in Lifestream&nbsp;Bowel<I>Biotics </I>&nbsp; is therefore sourced from non-wheat sources which include psyllium husks and inulin. Psyllium husks are a water retentive non-wheat fibre source. When water is added to psyllium husks, a soft gel forms, helping matter to move through the colon smoothly. <BR><BR>Water retentive fibre also encourages the presence of natural bacteria in the bowel.</P>  <H4>&nbsp;</H4></FONT></DIV>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<DIV>  <H3><A name="Prebiotics"></A><FONT size="2">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;Prebiotics (Inulin)</FONT></H3>  <P><FONT size="2">Inulins are naturally occurring oligosaccharides (several simple sugars linked together) that are resistant to</FONT> <FONT size="2">digestion in the stomach and intestines but are metabolized in the colon by bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. Inulins are found in vegetables such as asparagus, leeks, onions, chicory roots and garlic. Inulins help to promote the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria while simultaneously helping to reduce the population of unfriendly bacteria in the colon. Substances such as inulin that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon are called prebiotics. <BR></FONT><BR><FONT size="2">The ability to digest inulin varies among the different types of microflora which may commonly inhabit the intestine. Several studies <SUP>1, 2, 3 </SUP>have shown how inulin added to a healthy balanced diet improves intestinal flora and enhances the Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria population. Other unfriendly species of bacteria including E. coli, Clostridia and Salmonella cannot utilize inulin. <BR><BR>An abundance of beneficial bacteria helps your intestinal tract toremain healthy by creating conditions that are unfavourable to unfriendly bacteria. Lifestream&nbsp;Bowel<I>Biotics </I>can help to ensure that sufficient levels of inulin are provided in the diet.</FONT> </P>  <H3><A name="Probiotics"></A><FONT size="2">3.&nbsp;Probiotics (Lactobacilli &amp; Bifidobacteria)</FONT> </H3>  <P><FONT size="2">Probiotics are live microbial organisms that populate the gut (such as Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria) and are beneficial to health. </FONT></P>  <P><FONT size="2">'Good' and 'Bad' bacteria are continually competing with each other in the gut and it is now clearly recognised that long term bowel health and overall well-being can be supported by maintaining a favourable balance of friendly bacteria in the colon. </FONT></P>  <H3><FONT size="2">Pack Information:</FONT></H3>  <P><FONT size="2">Available on this site 200g powder for adults and 100g powder formulation for kids</FONT></P></DIV>]]></description>
