SymbioLact® Comp. forte supports the gut with four highly concentrated strains of lactic acid bacteria and biotin. Ideal when there is an increased need, such as after taking antibiotics or during periods of stress. Does not produce histamine.

A food supplement containing biotin to help maintain a healthy intestinal mucosa, and lactic acid-producing bacteria.

SymbioLact® Comp. forte – support for the gut and intestinal mucosa

The gut is the largest interface between our internal and external environments. It is through the gut that nutrients and fluids enter and leave our body. However, our gut also acts as a barrier to protect us against harmful substances and pathogens. To maintain this function, we need a healthy intestinal mucosa. Our gut flora also plays an important role in this.

SymbioLact® Comp. – for a balanced gut*

• With selected lactic acid bacteria
• SymbioLact® Comp. forte: with up to 8 billion bacteria per day
• Bacteria proven effective since 1996
• Studies confirm their effectiveness**

The bacterial community in our gut plays a key role in our well-being, as our gut bacteria perform a number of important functions. For example, they help to nourish the cells of the intestinal lining, ward off pathogens and support our immune system. They also ensure the right environment in the gut, which is important for digestion, amongst other things. 

Our modern lifestyle can sometimes be stressful – even for our gut bacteria. Persistent stress, a lack of exercise and the frequent consumption of highly processed, low-fibre foods can, for example, put strain on our gut bacteria and thus adversely alter their composition.

Support for the entire gut tract

The SymbioLact® Comp. forte dietary supplement is suitable for daily use to complement your diet. It contains lactic acid bacteria in high concentrations and as a pure culture:

• Lactobacillus acidophilus
• Lactobacillus paracasei
• Lactococcus lactis
• Bifidobacterium lactis

The lactic acid bacteria contained in SymbioLact® Comp. forteare part of the gut flora. The bacteria are in dried form and become active again as soon as they come into contact with water. As the name suggests, these bacteria produce lactic acid, which they make available to the body.

No histamine production

As none of the bacterial strains in SymbioLact® Comp. forte produce histamine, these food supplements are also suitable for people with a histamine intolerance. For the study, the bacteria were cultured under conditions that normally trigger histamine production. They were then analysed using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, which confirmed that none of the bacterial strains used produce histamine.

Biotin for the intestinal mucosa

The vitamin biotin is important for the metabolism of the body’s cells. Highly active tissues in particular, such as the mucous membranes, require biotin to ensure that cell division processes proceed in a regulated manner. The intestinal mucosa is the body’s largest mucous membrane and is therefore central to our health, particularly in terms of the gut’s barrier function. It regenerates completely every two to three days. In order to maintain this enormous metabolic activity, the body must be well supplied with all the nutritional components that are important for building new tissue structures. SymbioLact® Comp. forte contains not only lactic acid-producing bacteria but also biotin, to help maintain healthy mucous membranes.

For non-specific intestinal complaints, to support the gut* and gut microbiome

• Supportive phases with increased requirements due to particular stresses (e.g. when taking medication, stress-related digestive complaints, changes in diet whilst travelling)
• Acute treatment phase/short-term use

* Biotin helps maintain normal mucous membranes. ** of the bacterial strains BB12 and LA5
