Properties of components
Multizan® ProBiotic Uro contains a combination of cranberry extract and 2 billion probiotic lactobacilli of the well-studied and widely used health promoting Lactobacillus casei group (LCG) as an active ingredient. Due to long experience in the use of these types of lactobacilli for fermented foods, they are recognized as safe in the EU and USA (QRS status according to the EFSA, EU and GRAS status according to the FDA, USA).
Lactobacilli (lactic acid bacteria) are one of the main families of probiotic bacteria that differ in a number of unique properties:
- lactobacilli have a high ability to colonize the gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts, suppressing the invasion and growth of pathogenic microorganisms;
- lactobacilli are the dominant microflora of the vagina and urethra;
- lactobacilli create conditions for the successful reproduction of other probiotic bacteria due to their high antagonistic and immunological activity;
- synthesize metabolites that improve the trophism and regeneration of the epithelium of the urogenital tract.
Cranberry extract-derived proanthocyanidins in Multizan® ProBiotic Uro have antimicrobial properties and a protective action against urinary tract infections. Proanthocyanidins prevent the reproduction and attachment of bacterial cells to the epithelium of the urogenital system, contribute to the elimination of pathogenic bacteria from the urinary tracts.
Due to special manufacturing technology (freeze drying) the effectiveness of probiotic lactobacilli is preserved during the shelf life.
