Probiotics

Probiotics—good for life! Probiotics are trusted by millions of people around the world to help support healthy digestion, provide a natural defense, and maintain optimal health and wellness.

The World Health Organization (WHO) officially defines probiotics as live microorganisms, which when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.

The probiotics story begins with intestinal bacteria, which are a community of good and bad bacteria that live in the digestive system. We all have naturally occurring bacterial communities in our digestive systems. They help:

• Protect the body from harmful bacteria.
• Exercise the immune system to ensure it is ready to react to harmful bacteria.
• Strengthen the intestinal wall so it acts as a defensive barrier.
• Digest fiber in the diet, so we can absorb the nutrients from the foods we eat.

These digestive bacteria are essential to overall wellbeing. Probiotics act as a helper to these friendly bacteria, and that help can keep the digestive system functioning well.

Prebiotics

A prebiotic is a form of fiber that remains undigested in the small intestine and acts as food for the naturally-occurring friendly bacteria in your digestive system. Attune is formulated with the prebiotic inulin, which is a natural dietary fiber that supports healthy digestive function and works in harmony with probiotics.

LAFTI®

Attune contains three LAFTI® probiotics strains that are part of the natural bacteria in our digestive systems: Lactobacillus acidophilus (LAFTI® L10), Lactobacillus casei (LAFTI® L26), and Bifidobacterium lactis (LAFTI® B94).

LAFTI® probiotics have proven stability, survivability, efficacy and safety. We use multiple probiotic strains because each strain may have slightly different characteristics and may play a different role in maintaining the balance of flora in the digestive system.
