Pharmacist FAQs Answered

Why choose Bio-Kult?

Bio-Kult is designed to help the natural balance of bacteria in your gut, or gut microbiome. Your digestive tract contains trillions of live bacteria that support digestion, immunity, and even mood. This delicate balance can be disrupted by illness, stress, poor diet, or use of antibiotics. Bio-Kult helps repopulate and feed these beneficial bacteria, supporting overall gut health.

How is Bio-Kult different?

In contrast to most fundamental probiotic products, Bio-Kult has a combination of 14 various bacterial strains, well chosen to coexist in harmony. This wide range of strains guarantees that the product can address several regions of the digestive system, from the mouth to the large intestine. Every capsule holds live cultures shielded by their natural form, so they don't need to be refrigerated and are stable at room temperature.

Can Bio-Kult be used daily?

Yes. Bio-Kult can be taken every day and is safe for long-term use. Whether you want to maintain healthy gut flora or support recovery from illness or antibiotics, daily consumption can help with:

• Improving digestion
• Reducing occasional bloating or gas
• Maintaining healthy immune system
• Assisting nutrient absorption from food

Does Bio-Kult support immune health?

Approximately 70% of your immune system is housed in the gut, and a balanced combination of bacteria is essential for effective immune function. Some of the bacteria strains in Bio-Kult, such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium longum, have been shown in research to assist with the body's immunity, especially when under conditions of illness, when away from home, or at seasonal transitions.

How does Bio-Kult help children and infants?

Bio-Kult can be used in children and even babies (with professional supervision). The capsule can be opened and sprinkled onto milk, yoghurt, or food and so easily given to little ones without inconvenience. The half-dose for under 12s gives gentle support to immature digestive and immune systems.

When is Bio-Kult most beneficial?

You might find taking Bio-Kult helpful:

• After or alongside antibiotics, which have a tendency to wipe out beneficial gut bacteria
• Before and whilst travelling, particularly when visiting nations where food or water hygiene practices are different
• Whilst pregnant or breastfeeding, to support a healthy gut flora, which also helps your baby
• Under stress, because gut health has a direct link with mental well-being
• As part of your daily well-being routine, for continued digestive assistance

Is Bio-Kult available for individuals who have dietary restrictions?

Yes, Bio-Kult is:

• Suitable for vegetarians
• Gluten-free
• Free from artificial colours and flavour

But due to the bacterial fermentation process, trace amounts of soya and milk may be left in the final product. These are at such low levels that they are unlikely to have any effect on individuals with lactose intolerance, but individuals with severe milk allergies should consult a healthcare practitioner before use.

Can Bio-Kult be taken with other supplements or medications?

Bio-Kult is a food supplement and will not interfere with the majority of medication. If you are on prescribed medication, especially immunosuppressants or long-term antibiotics, it's always best to speak with your GP or pharmacist. It can be safely taken with most vitamins, minerals, and probiotics.

How long should I take Bio-Kult for?

Probiotic supplementation is most effective when taken consistently. Some individuals take Bio-Kult daily as part of a preventative health program, and others take it when needed, like when on antibiotics or travelling. If taking after antibiotics, it's best to take at least two weeks, but most find ongoing use to be helpful.

How do I know if it's working?

Signs that your gut health is improving are:

• Fewer episodes of discomfort or bloating
• More frequent bowel movements
• Easier digestion after eating
• Greater energy and overall health

Changes are subtle and can take several weeks to several days to notice, depending on your current condition.
