Gut Health Trends

Hong Kong people in fast-paced lives, often ate out and experienced bloating, gas, abdominal pain and other digestive discomforts. If these symptoms persisting, they might related to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

IBS was a functional gastrointestinal problem. Common symptoms included abdominal pain, bloating, changes in bowel habits such as alternating diarrhea and constipation and post-meal gas and bloating. High stress, irregular eating habits and gut microbiota imbalance were common triggers.

How probiotics help?

Studies showed that specific probiotics regulating gut microbiota balance, inhibit harmful bacteria and produce short-chain fatty acids that acidify the gut environment and helping relieve digestive discomfort.

Lactobacillus acidophilus GKA7™ specialized in upper digestive tract health, helping protect the gastric mucosa and maintain digestive function. Bifidobacterium bifidum GKB2, helped maintain gut microbiota balance and worked with other strains for immune regulation.
