Product Description:
Lepicol Powder for Healthy Bowels, 220gr.
Lepicol is made of natural source ingredients, which help to maintain the efficient action of the bowels. Taken daily, it will help to ensure regular bowel movements in a smooth, natural way whilst at the same time providing friendly bacteria which are so important for the long-term health of the bowels. It is particularly suitable for people suffering from sensitive or sluggish bowel problems.
Psyllium husks, which come from the cleansing plaintain Psyllium, are rich in fibre and able to absorb more than 20 times their own weight in fluid. When taken with water or fruit juice, the husks form a soft gel which is ideally suited to remove unwanted material from the colon. Recent research has shown how the husks in Lepicol can help keep the bowels in general good health. The psyllium used in Lepicol is 98% pure and is the highest grade available.
Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Lacobacillus Bifidum bacteria, known as the friendly bacteria are vital to a healthy colon. Many bowel disorders often result in unfriendly bacteria getting the upper hand. The inclusion of healthy bacteria in Lepicol play an important part of the overall programme in keeping the colon healthy.
Fructo-oligosaccharides are extracted from artichokes and have been shown to extend the life of Lactobacillus bacteria. Recent research in Japan and the USA has shown how fructo-oligosaccharides can improve intestinal flora and enhance the bifidobacteria population.
Lepicol is phytate free.
Recommended Dosage
Adults: Take 2 heaped teaspoons (10g) twice daily. Mix with water or fruit juice and consume immediately. Follow this with a further cup of water or fruit juice. After 2 weeks, it should be possible to halve this intake.
Children: Take 1 heaped teaspoon (5g) twice daily. Mix with water or fruit juice and consume immediately. Follow this with a further cup of water or fruit juice. After 2 weeks, it should be possible to halve this intake. Lepicol can be taken any time of the day, but most people will probably find it more convenient to take before meals. As Lepicol isn't absorbed by the body and doesn't stimulate in any way, it is suitable for prolonged use. Intakes can be adjusted according to requirements.
