Yes, but much more...Theralac capsules contain 5 billion CFU of Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA-1 strain), a well documented, bile tolerant strain with a long history of use in human dietary supplements. This makes Theralac five times stronger in "Acidophilus" than most probiotic products.

Ultimate Acidophilus Plus repopulates your digestive tract with two superior forms of lactobacilli, l. acidophilus DDS-1 and l. sporogenes after the candida is killed by Flora Balance. This is an important step to returning your digestive system to normal health. These products have not been evaluated by the Food & Drug Administration.

What would be the effect? Probiotic bacteria, including those in Theralac, have been used in dosages of one trillion CFU/day or more without harmful effects. At very high dosages probiotics may cause diarrhea in some people which can be eliminated by reducing the dose. Sometimes when high potency probiotics are used for the first time a short period of discomfort results while the intestinal tract's microflora is being rebalanced. This is called the Herxheimer Reaction.

Threelac is compatible with other essential friendly Flora such as acidophilus and bifidus, but it does not replace them. If you think that your essential flora needs replenishing after anti-biotics then please add these. Please Note - Active Enzymes Formula also contains these essential probiotic bacteria as well as crucial enzymes to help normalise your digestion.

Yes. If Webber Naturals™ Acidophilus is not refrigerated, it looses about 3% potency per month. Phase 2™, the carb neutralizer ingredient was used in human studies and subjects were given standardized or recommended meal plans. The carbohydrates consumed per meal, were based on an average meal size, not twice as much as one person would consume at a meal. Doses taken above the manufactures label recommendation may cause intestinal discomfort, gas or loose stools.

Yogurt is high in Lactobacillus acidophilus. The unflavored kind or plain is more highly recommended than the flavored because yeast may grow in the kind with fruit on the bottom. Some milk now also has acidophilus added. Just read the labels. However, most children with autism are sensitive to casein so the use of these sources may not be wise.

Theralac contains two prebiotics that are effective at low dosages; Lactoferrin and LactoStim (patented). Lactoferrin binds iron and makes it difficult for iron dependent, gram negative bacteria (like Salmonella and E. coli) to grow. This gives gram positive, probiotic bacteria (which require less iron) a competitive advantage. LactoStim is a food grade emulsifier that stimulates the growth and reproduction of Theralac's probiotic bacteria (patented).

Theralac's five probiotic strains work together (in symbiosis) to stimulate the mucosal immune system on the intestinal surface which then sends activation signals to the body's systemic immune system. Because Theralac's strains are beneficial this action is gentle and modulated. The immune system is put on "yellow alert" so to speak, ready to act quickly when pathogenic microorganisms appear.

Either way works well due to Theralac's ACID PROOF formulation. Take Theralac with water, fruit juice or milk.

Yes. Take the antibiotic at the prescribed time followed by Theralac two-three hours later. Continue taking Theralac daily for at least two weeks after finishing the antibiotics.

Take at least one per day. When traveling to developing countries take two per day, one in the morning and one in the evening. Intestinal problems are easier to prevent than treat so start taking Theralac daily one week before you leave. Theralac can be held at room temperature (65?-75? F) for up to 30 days without loss in viability. Keep bottle tightly closed and out of direct sunlight.

Lactose intolerance results from a lack of the enzyme lactase in the small intestine. All five of Theralac's probiotic strains produce lactase and may reduce the severity of lactose intolerance.

It is recommended to use acidophilus, but not because the treatment washes out intestinal flora. Colon hydrotherapy cleansings do not wash out intestinal flora. Taking acidophilus subsequent to a colon cleansing is beneficial, because it helps to improve the bacterial balance in the colon. The best method is to implant the flora rectally the evening after your final therapy session, or if you prefer, to drink acidophilus for 2 weeks after the final therapy session.

While the exact process is proprietary with the manufacturer, we can tell you that the DDS-1 strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus, from which Simplexity Health's Acidophilus is made, is grown on a medium fortified with natural proteoses, peptones, vitamins, amino acids, minerals, enzymes, and growth-promoting and stabilizing constituents. Until recently the manufacturer had repeatedly assured us that Simplexity's Acidophilus contained no milk products.

No. Acidophilus milk is simply cows milk with the lactobacillus acidophilus bacteria added to it. It still contains the same amount of lactose and milk proteins and should be avoided. Return to FAQs

No. Theralac's advanced, high potency formulation allows you to take two capsules per week once your intestinal tract's microflora has been balanced (this occurs for most people after taking Theralac daily for two weeks). The ability to take a probiotic twice a week provides convenience and cost savings. NOTE: Taking Theralac daily for two weeks provides 280 billion CFU to your intestinal tract, a very effective dose by probiotic standards.

Yes. FOS, or fructooligosaccharides, are prebiotics that you can get by eating certain foods, and are required in larger quantities compared to Lactoferrin and LactoStim. The following foods contain a unique source of soluable fiber (FOS) that stimulates probiotic bacteria. Eat some when you take Theralac!

The probiotic bacteria in Theralac attach to the soft lining (wall) of your intestinal tract and help keep it healthy. The lactobacillus ("lacto") strains are most active in the small intestine while the Bifidobacterium ("Bifido") strains work best in the large intestine (colon). A healthy intestinal wall encourages optimum absorption of nutrients, including vitamins and minerals, and supports healthy digestion and elimination. Theralac also benefits your immune system...
