Jarro-Dophilus+FOS: Capsules (Jarrow) Each bottle, 100 capsules. Each 280 mg capsule contains more than 3.4 billion beneficial intestinal organisms (at the time of manufacture), along with 210 mg of FructoOligoSaccharides (FOS) that help their replication. The health-promoting bacteria included are listed below. PWHIV take 1-2 capsules 30 minutes before or 20-40 minutes after eating each meal. Refrigerate, unfrozen as organisms tend to die as time passes and more so at room temperature.
Acidophilus/Bifidus Products Overview: These products are considered essential for most PWHIV due to malabsorption, antibiotic use and general GI tract dysfunction so common in HIV disease. All friendly intestinal bacteria ordered by mail are sent UPS ground unless faster service is requested. Always refrigerate. L. acidophilus supports immune functions, promoting resistance to infections which may in turn enhance immunity to certain diseases. In addition, it has been shown to fight off and displace undesirable and potentially destructive bacteria and yeast in the gastrointestinal tract. These organisms facilitate the digestibility of protein, help to produce B-vitamins, enhance calcium absorption and stimulate enzymatic activities involved with absorption of nutrients.
USAGE: Take 1-3 capsules per day with unchilled water, or dissolve capsule in mouth, 20-60 minutes after eating. For infants and children, open capsules and pour contents into water or over food. Or take as directed by your qualified health consultant.
Jarro-Dophilus™ + FOS survives stomach acid and colonizes the intestines. FOS are natural carbohydrates that enhance replication of beneficial bacteria. At time of manufacture, each non-dairy capsule contains approximately 3.4 billion organisms in the below percentages and amounts:
