In the case of probiotics, three critical barriers must be overcome tofully benefit the consumer.
BIO-tract products incorporate proven processes and technologies toovercome these barriers.
How BIO-tract works
Once ingested, BIO-tract tablets form a protective layer, which shieldsprobiotic organisms from the acidic conditions of the stomach. After passingfrom the stomach to the intestinal tract, the tablets release the organisms atoptimal rates determined by formulation.
Broad applications for BIO-tract
Application of the BIO-tract delivery system is not limited to probiotics.It has been applied to many other ingredients that benefit from effectivegastric acid protection, buffering, controlled release and once-daily dosing.Custom BIO-tract formulations allow the controlled release of activeingredients at rates ranging from just a few hours to all day long.
