Scientific excellence with a double impact on health

The prebiotic effect (recognized by KFDA):
Solactis® is the major reference in prebiotic action: it's a non-digestible food which has a beneficial impact on the intestinal flora, through selective stimulation of the growth and the activity of certain bacteria, and in particular the Bifidobacteria. The consumption of food containing Solactis® is subsequently associated with several health benefits, thanks to a more balanced intestinal flora.. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated the prebiotic effect of Solactis®,  in particular as a result of the significant increase of the number of Bifidobacteria when the product is consumed. These studies have been performed on healthy subjects, in different psychological stages. The consumption of Solactis® during these surveys did not have any side effects. 

The transit effect (recognized by EFSA):
The prebiotic activity of Solactis® also affects the transit. Solactis® is fermented by the colonic bacteria in short chain volatile fatty acids with two consequences. On the one hand, the osmotic gradient in the colon and consequently the water level of the colonic content is increased, which in turn increases the volume of the stools. On the other hand, the pH level of the colon drops. The increase of stool volume and colonic acidity stimulate the peristalsis and the colonic transit time is subsequently reduced. Furthermore, the higher biomass of the Bifidobacteria contributes to increasing the volume of the stools and reducing the transit time.

  The combination of these two effects of Solactis®, "prebiotic and transit", contribute to better intestinal comfort and improved well-being in general.

Bonus effects:
Solactis® is beneficial for the mineral metabolism. Lower intestinal pH levels result in increased solubility of minerals, including calcium. A clinical survey in women also indicated improved absorption of vitamin D as a result of  food supplements with Solactis®.
And last but not least, the effect of Solactis® on  the metabolism of glucose and the resistance to insulin, as well as the preventive effect on type 2  diabetes are also documented.
