When selecting our raw materials, we made sure to use highly active bacterial strains which are produced by fermentation under strictly controlled conditions. This process avoids contact with any genetically manipulated organisms, which are often cultivated on the market to reduce costs.
Our Flora Essentials 7 Kefir Well is composed of a balanced, symbiotic blend of 7 special strains of lactic acid bacteria: Lactobacillus fermentum LF26, Lactobacillus paracasei LPC12, Lactobacillus rhamnosus LRH10, Bifidobacterium longum BL986, Lactobacillus acidophilus LA1063, Lactobacillus helveticus LH43 and Streptococcus thermophilus ST30. The standardised production of this mixture is modelled on the symbiotic fermentation process used in the production of kefir, during which several bacterial strains are cultivated together. In this process, milk is used as the basis for fermentation, so the end product is not vegan. The fermentation process is followed by purification and gentle freeze-drying to optimally preserve the viability of the lactic acid bacteria. Important metabolic products of the lactic acid bacteria are also preserved in the end product. No additives or carriers are used.
We combine the lactic acid bacteria with the digestive enzyme complex DigenZym®️, which is composed of the enzymes amylase, lactase, cellulase, protease and lipase. This blend also contains important dietary fibres: hydrolysed guar gum Sunfiber®️ from the Indian guar bean and the special resistant dextrin (RS4) to the mixture. These fibres serve as a food source for bifido and lactobacteria.
For the capsule shells we use Plant-based cellulose (HPMC) capsules that unlike most other HPMC and pullulan capsules on the market, are 100% free from controversial additives such as carrageenans and PEG. We use environmentally friendly amber glass jars for the packaging of this product.
