HMF Forte delivers 20 billion CFU of Genestra's extensively researched 4 core human probiotic strains shown to assist in: re-establishing and maintaining a normal intestinal microflora, benefiting leaky gut by controlling the permeability of epithelial cells by mediating tight junction formation, and preventing pathogenic adherence to cells by increasing mucin release on the intestinal surface.
Considered as a "high-level maintenance probiotic", HMF Forte can be considered by individuals who use interventions shown to disrupt the gut microbiome, including: antibiotics, oral contraceptives, and steroids (prednisone).
This formula contains the prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) which can aggravate symptoms of bloating and gas often associated with SIBO. In such cases, consider an HMF probiotic without prebiotics, such as HMF multi strain or HMF Travel.
