Probiotics are live microbial supplements which can be given orally to restore and maintain the balance of microorganisms in the intestinal tract, to combat bacterial overgrowth and episodes of diarrhoea caused by a transient imbalance of the gut flora. The probiotic micro‐organism also competes with harmful bacteria such as E. coli and salmonella by creating an unfavourable pH environment. PRO‐KOLIN also contains kaolin and pectin, natural binding agents which coat the lining of the gut.
