  • Stabilizing tight junctions and inhibiting invasion of human intestinal epithelial cells by enterovirulent bacteria.⁷
  • In vitro, Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria inhibited mucosal adhesion of enteropathogens by competitive exclusion.⁸
  • In a review, lactic acid bacteria produced acetic, lactic and propionic acid, lowering the pH which resulted in inhibition of growth of a wide range of bacteria.⁷
• For dairy protein and lactose intolerant people: Ultra Flora Plus is also available in a dairy-free form as Ultra Flora Plus DF. Ultra Flora Plus DF contains the same concentrations of the probiotic bacteria without colostrum.
