Friendly bacteria for those with IBS

All of these Optibac supplements are particularly suitable for people with IBS. Choose the one that's right for you:

  • The highly researched strains Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM® and Bifidobacterium lactis Bi-07® are found naturally in the digestive tract, and complement your good gut bacteria. They can be found in Every Day EXTRA and are a popular choice for those with IBS-A or IBS-M. 
  • Choose Bifido & Fibre if you're looking for a product containing Bifidobacterium lactis BB-12®, which is extensively researched in those with IBS-C so especially suitable for those with this type of IBS.
  • Saccharomyces boulardii contains the world's only 'friendly yeast'. Saccharomyces boulardii is supported by 50 years of research and is often chosen by those with IBS-D.
  • If you find gummies easier to take, choose Adult Gummies. These delicious gummies contain the highly researched strain Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-2, along with Calcium, Vitamin D, and Zinc.
