HMF Capsules provides two strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium lactis to specifically assist with the maintenance of normal intestinal health and, thereby, the integrity of the immune system. Studies show an overgrowth of opportunistic pathogens crowds out intestinal bacteria, deposits toxins, damages the mucosal lining, and compromises the immune system, thereby increasing susceptibility to chronic infection, fatigue and disease. Weakened body?s defenses lead to increased infections, which can be fatal in severely immuno-compromised individuals. Supplementation of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria will crowd out unwanted bacteria by repopulating the gastrointestinal tract.
HMF Capsules provides a low-level maintenance dose of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria ideal for individuals with minor health problems. HMF Capsules is indicated for indigestion, chronic colds and flus, candidiasis, hypercholesterolemia, fungal and yeast infections, and to maintain a healthy immune system. The capsules are 100% pure vegetable-sourced. Product ideal for vegans. Note: fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) have been removed from this product.

3/2/2011 Ingredient Notice from Seroyal/Genestra:
The formulation of the HMF probiotics has not changed, just the manufacturer?s guarantee has changed on the label of the HMF Probiotics. It has been recently communicated to us by Seroyal/Genestra that ?Barley gluten, lactose and soy are used in the fermentation medium for growing the micro-organisms prior to manufacturing the final formulation. These nutrients are digested by the micro-organisms during fermentation and further removed during centrifugation (after fermentation).?
?We have tested the HMF probiotics as worst-case scenarios based on total daily consumption and target populations and no gluten, dairy or soy was detected in the final product. Although our analytical assay for soy, gluten & dairy did not detect any proteins, these methods cannot detect total absence.?

Are HMF products shipped with an ice pack? No. But, after extensive product testing and new freeze drying technology performed by Genestra, it was concluded that the ice pack did not make a difference during shipping since the product potency was still well over 100% label claims when shipped with ice or no ice. The manufacturer states that it is no longer necessary to ship the HMF products with an ice pack for these reasons:
Genestra has added in 50% more probiotic than what the label guarantees per bottle. For example, HMF Forte is guaranteed to have 6 billion L. acidophilus per serving, but there are 12 billion present at time of manufacturing and it is kept frozen until shipping.
October 2004: The manufacturer has increased product stability again, allowing the probiotics to last up to 6 months at room temperature holding their GUARANTEED minimum potency on label!
You will receive your HMF probiotic directly from the manufacturer in about 3-5 days. This product is very fresh and has not been sitting around on our shelves. And, you are guaranteed it will contain 50% more than what the label states.
How do I travel with my HMF probiotics? We highly recommend you take your probiotics with you on all trips and vacations since their potency will last for up to 6 months at room temperature un-refrigerated. But, when possible and if convenient, we recommend you store your probiotics in the freezer or refrigerator, especially if you plan to preserve freshness of your product for months or years.

In trying to correct some digestive issues and yeast I was in need of a product that didn't have the fructose compound that many include. This is excellent quality and has gradually brought improvements to my overall health. I would recommend this probiotic to anyone.

This product is very good in assisting in the digestion and helps elimination of waste. Though it taste a bit funny it does it work.
