HMF Bifido Powder offers six proprietary Bifidobacteria strains to support probiotic colonization in the large intestine.¹ Bifidobacteria are normally present in the gut from birth to old age, where they play an important role in gastrointestinal health.² Bifidobacteria help to mediate carbohydrate fermentation in the large intestine and contribute to the production of important short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including acetate and lactate.³ Although they are the most abundant genus present in the guts of healthy infants, Bifidobacteria concentrations decrease as individuals age, with greatest declines observed in the elderly.² Clinical research suggests that Bifidobacteria supplementation can promote a healthy gut flora composition and support gastrointestinal health.³ HMF Bifido Powder provides highly researched probiotic strains such as Bl-04, along with CUL-34 and CUL-20, which have been demonstrated in clinical trials to contribute to a favourable gut flora.^4-6
