Acidophilus with Goat’s Milk by Vitabase is a probiotic that contains living bacteria to help reestablish bacteria to the digestive tract. These bacteria can renew the digestive tract to a proper balance of flora and may minimize undesirable digestive side effects. Good bacteria may also suppress distractive bacteria and yeast thereby providing maximum digestive function. Acidophilus is known to be able to break down the food in the small intestine and help produce hydrogen peroxide, lactic acid, and other elements that help to decrease the presence of harmful organisms. It helps produce lactase, is a key in the production of vitamin K and may be beneficial when used in conjunction with bacterial vaginosis. Acidophilus may also help reduce or prevent diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, and possibly inflammatory bowel diseases.
