Biogena offers lactobacteria in the form of powder (e.g. Junior Omni Bo 6) and capsules (Omni Lactis 10 Caps). In order to attain the best results with living bacteria, different recommendations for intake should be observed for powder and capsule products. In the case of the capsule product “Omni Lactis 10 Caps”, we use cellulose capsules (DRcaps) that dissolve only when they reach the intestine and that protect the bacteria from the acidic, germicidal pH-value in the stomach due to their special manufacture. Ideally, “Omni Lactis 10 Caps” should be taken on an empty stomach, at best with water in room temperature. The powder product “Junior Omni Bo 6” should be stirred into room-temperature water. After 10 to 15 minutes, during which the bacteria are activated and start multiplying, the mixture should be stirred and drunk immediately. Ideally, “Junior Omni Bo 6” should be taken on an empty stomach in order to reduce contact time with stomach acid and this way improve the survival rate of microorganisms.
