After passing through the GI tract, the probiotic bacteria\u00a0reach the small intestine, where they have to be effective\u00a0at the right time and in the right place.<\/p>\n
Metabolic or biological activity is one of the most important\u00a0parameters that determines the quality of a probiotic\u00a0based product. In fact, it is even more important\u00a0than the amount of bacteria in the product since, from a\u00a0metabolic point of view, it is useless to have a very high\u00a0number of bacteria in the intestine if they are not viable.<\/p>\n
The lactic acid production can be used as an indicator of\u00a0the activity of the product since is a specific feature of\u00a0probiotic activity and one of the actions that promotes\u00a0health. It can be state without no doubt that the greater\u00a0the production of lactic acid, the higher metabolic\u00a0activity of bacteria or mixture is. Hence, measuring the\u00a0production of lactic acid is considered a good method for\u00a0determining activity of the probiotic strains.<\/p>\n
The lactic acid production must be measured over time\u00a0and always after a simulation of passage through\u00a0the gastrointestinal tract.<\/p>\n
When comparing the average production of lactic acid\u00a0of\u00a0Megaflora 9 evo<\/strong>\u00a0with two other similar\u00a0prebiotic and probiotic mixtures in concentration and\u00a0gastroresistance, Megaflora\u00a09 evo\u00a0<\/strong>showed that after 4 hours the producing lactic acid activity was far superior.<\/p>\n Activity producing lactic acid of Megaflora 9 evo<\/strong> compared with other similar marketed probiotic mixtures with the same capacity of gastroresistance.<\/p><\/div>\n This result establishes that Megaflora 9\u00a0evo<\/strong> contains living, viable and active bacteria after\u00a0GI passage.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.megaflora9.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ACTIVITY-1024x598.jpg\")
