HMF Cystgen provides a unique combination of Lactobacillus acidophilus along with specific urine alkalizers to assist in reducing urine acidity, thereby decreasing the itchiness and burning sensations in the urinary tract. Research shows that bacteria, frequent use of antibiotics, constipation, stress, a poor diet, and hormonal imbalances contribute to an increased susceptibility to bladder infections; if left untreated, the infection can spread into the kidneys and cause serious damage. HMF Cystgen is indicated for the acute treatment of cystitis and to prevent the adherence of E. coli and Pseudomonas bacteria to the urethra. Product ideal for vegans.

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.

I have suffered with UTI, bladder infections, and pyelonephritis for a long time and was tired of continually taking courses of antibiotics. I had a bout of cystitis about two months ago and started with HMF Cystgen sachets for six days-the symptoms dissipated almost immediately. I now take a sachet once a month as a preventative measure and continue with a daily probiotic capsule.

This product is excellent at both soothing an active UTI and replenishing the healthy bacteria that may have been missing in order for the UTI to take hold in the first place. As a long time sufferer of Cystitis, this product is invaluable to me and brings quick and welcome relief.
