Gut and Digestive Health
Supports the working end of digestion, so meals move through the way they should instead of sitting heavy for hours afterwards.
Flora That Holds Its Balance
Antibiotics, stress, travel and a run of bad eating all knock the gut population about. This helps restock it and keep the balance steady.
Less Bloating and Discomfort
Supports the comfortable, settled feeling after eating, rather than the tight waistband and the gas that arrives an hour later.
Back on Track After Antibiotics
A course of antibiotics clears the useful population along with the problem. Supports restoring gut flora once the course is finished.
Everyday Immune Support
A large share of your immune activity sits in the gut wall, which is why looking after the flora there supports how well you hold up day to day.
Prebiotic and Probiotic Together
The probiotics arrive, the prebiotics feed them. Sending both in gives the new population something to live on once it lands.

Product Information
You are running a colony in there, and it takes a beating
The population living in your gut is doing more work than most people give it credit for: breaking food down, extracting what you actually absorb, and lining the wall where a large part of your immune activity happens. It is also remarkably easy to knock sideways. A course of antibiotics, a fortnight of stress, a holiday of restaurant food, a bad month of sleep, and the balance shifts. You feel it as bloating, irregularity, and a general sense that your digestion has stopped being invisible.
2 different jobs, 1 capsule
Probiotics are the live cultures themselves. Prebiotics are what those cultures eat. Sending in probiotics alone is a bit like moving people into a house with an empty fridge, which is why this pairs the two: the arriving population lands with a food supply already in place and a far better chance of establishing rather than passing straight through. That combination is the reason a single daily capsule can carry its weight.
Why 60 billion, and why once a day
A count that size is deliberate. Stomach acid is hostile ground and a meaningful portion of any live culture does not survive the trip, so the number that starts the journey has to be generously higher than the number that needs to arrive. 60 billion in a 500mg capsule means 1 capsule a day does the job, taken in the morning as the label directs, without turning your gut health into a 3-times-a-day project.
The antibiotics conversation
Antibiotics do not aim. They clear the problem and they clear a good deal of the useful population with it, which is why the fortnight afterwards so often brings loose stools, bloating or a stomach that has simply lost its rhythm. Restocking afterwards is one of the most common reasons people start on a formula like this, and it is worth continuing well past the point where things feel normal again, because re-establishing a population takes longer than emptying one.
The people who end up on this one
Anyone who has just finished antibiotics and wants to get their digestion back. Anyone whose stomach reacts to travel, stress or a change in diet. People who bloat after ordinary meals and have quietly started avoiding certain foods rather than working out why. People who catch everything going around and have been told the gut is worth looking at. And people who simply want their digestion to go back to being something they never have to think about.
Chosen by a practitioner, not by a supplier
Dr. Hester van der Merwe stocks what she is willing to hand to a patient across a consulting-room desk, and the count and the prebiotic pairing here were both decided on that basis rather than on what was cheapest to fill. Made in South Africa, with every batch lab-tested for purity and potency.

FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
How do I take it?
One capsule in the morning before a meal, as the label directs. Take it at the same time each day, because a live culture formula works on consistency rather than on the occasional dose.
Why does it pair prebiotics with probiotics?
The probiotics are the live cultures and the prebiotics are their food. Sending both means the arriving population has something to live on and a better chance of establishing itself instead of simply passing through.
How long before I notice anything?
Most people give it 2 to 4 weeks. Digestion and bloating often settle first, while re-establishing a population after antibiotics takes longer, so keep going past the point where things start feeling normal again.
Can I take it while I am on antibiotics?
Restocking afterwards is the more common approach, and many people start the day the course finishes. If you want to take it alongside the antibiotics, ask your practitioner or pharmacist, since timing matters when the two overlap.
Is a bit of gas at the start normal?
Yes, it is fairly common in the first few days while the balance shifts, and it usually settles on its own. If it does not settle, stop and speak to your healthcare practitioner.
Does it need to be kept in the fridge?
Store it cool, dry and out of direct sunlight, and keep the container closed.
Is 60 billion a lot?
It is a generous count, and deliberately so. Stomach acid is hostile ground for live cultures, so the number that starts the journey needs to be well above the number that has to arrive.
Who makes it?
It is formulated by Dr. Hester van der Merwe, a registered health practitioner, and made in South Africa, with every batch lab-tested for purity and potency.
