PreB2 Prebiotic with Bimuno 60/cs
For the dietary management of gut health and diarrhea:
Antibiotic Diarrhea, Tube Feeding Diarrhea, Infectious Disease Diarrhea, C-Diff.
PreB2 contains 5.5 grams of the prebiotic Bimuno, the only second generation prebiotic (B-GOS) available that offers dual functionality beyond simple prebiotic effect; it increases and strengthens beneficial bacteria and immunity boosting bifidobacteria.
Probiotic supplements and foods such as yogurt that contain live bacteria have a restricted role in the management of gut health due to the problems of survivability in the large intestine. PreB2 with Bimuno is a food source for the gut's beneficial bacteria and works in the following way:
- Reaches the small intestine intact where it inhibits adhesion of G.I. pathogenic bacteria
- In the large intestine, it is fermented by the specific beneficial bacteria which leads to a change in the pH balance resulting in a positive change in the microflora. This selective fermentation increases and strengthens the immunity boosting bacteria (bifidobacteria).
- There is a positive direct effect on the innate immune system resulting from increased NK cell and phagocytic activity (removal of pathogens and cell debris).
- The net effect is enhancement in gut health and general wellbeing.

- In the small intestine, it inhibits adhesion of G.I. pathogenic bacteria.
- In the large intestine, it is fermented by specific beneficial bacteria. This leads to a change in the pH balance resulting in a positive change in microflora.
- This selective fermentation increases and strengthens the immunity boosting bacterial (bifidobacteria). There is a positive direct effect on the innate immune system resulting from increased NK cell and phagocytic activity.
- There is also a positive direct effect on the adaptive Immune system resulting from the increased in Anti-inflammatory cytokines and a decrease in Pro-inflammatory cytokines.
