A proprietary blend of inulins isolated from Jerusalem artichoke, called inuflora, has been formulated that not only improves digestive health but also restores floral balance in the intestine. Inuline is a soluble fiber that cannot be digested by the human body. It is absorbed intact and travels to the colon as fibrous material, where it serves as a selective food source for beneficial bacteria not harmful bacteria.These beneficial bacteria are our first line of immune defense. Beneficial bacteria displace and fight off harmful bacteria and internal fungi that can set the stage for both adult and childhood illness. They also increase the body's level of interferon, a mighty immune-boosting hormone, help assimilate nutrients and produce key vitamins.
High dosages and long-term use of antibiotics destroy both harmful and beneficial bacteria that reside in the gastrointestinal tract (GI). Without the reforestation of beneficial bacteria, the harmful bacteria propagate and become the majority. We will not only be prone to infectious disease but our bodies will produce toxic, carcinogenic substances.
Most viable cultures of friendly bacteria in probiotic formulas have a difficult time taking hold and flourishing in the GI. Inuflora does a great job of feeding or fertilizing the remaining colonies of native friendly bacteria already residing within the GI.
