The HMF products are powerful probiotics for relief of intestinal health problems. These Human Micro Flora (HMF) are human-derived strains including Lactobacillus acidophilus and L. bifidus, and the only product line of their kind in North America. All other probiotics are made from animal or dairy strains and do not adhere as well to the human gastrointestinal tract.
HMF Powder 60g contains 50% of each strain, L. acidophilus and L. bifidus, making it more appropriate for those who need more of the bifido-bacteria which resides in the lower large intestine. Lack of friendly bacteria in the lower intestines may result in severe abdominal discomfort, bowel problems such as constipation, diarrhea, and IBS, as well as extreme fatigue, and yeast overgrowth.  ÂÂHMF Super Powder 120g Ingredients:
Each 1/4 teaspoon (1g) contains:
The fructo-oligo-saccharides (FOS) ensure rapid establishment of the Lactobacilli in the upper small intestine and bifido bacteria in the lower small intestine. The source of FOS in the HMF super powder is from the whole freeze-dried apricot. The apricot is used for its soothing effect on the intestinal walls (and great flavor in the powders).
"Where are the bacterial strains derived from?":
Using laboratory procedures many years ago, hundreds of different bacterial strains were isolated from a healthy human intestinal wall sample. They were separated out, and each one was reproduced to make huge batches for testing via scientific trials. (Lab procedures only require one cell sample to reproduce large quantities for testing and production over the years).
Research indicated that only four of the hundreds of available cultures were the beneficial strains with health promoting properties. These were the ones which held up strong during 10 years of testing, thus they were used as the probiotic strains in all the HMF products.
These human strains are far superior to dairy or animal strains since the body recognizes these probiotics as "self" and allows better implantation.
HMF Super Powder 120g contains a 3:1 ratio of L. acidophius to Bifidobacterium, thus focuses more on upper GI distress, and also targets cells in the gyno-urino system.
HMF Powder and Super Powder are indicated for colds, flus, gas, bloating, indigestion, food poisoning, bacterial vaginosis, and fungal and yeast infections. Most notable is the critical role of taking HMF probiotics during and post antibiotic use which seriously damages the good flora throughout the body.
HMF Powder can help crowd out the yeast and other undesirable organisms which result from use of antibiotics, chemotherapy, oral contraceptives, and hormone replacement therapy.
HMF Powder and Super Powder have a sweet taste due their fructo-oligo-saccharides (FOS) content which ensure rapid establishment of the Lactobacilli in the upper small intestine and bifido bacteria in the lower small intestine. FOS is a naturally-occurring water-soluble fiber from fruit and vegetables which feeds the friendly intestinal bacteria. It also provides naturally-occurring beta-carotene from the whole freeze-dried apricot. The apricot is used for its soothing effect on the intestinal walls and also for its flavor.
