How PROBIOTICS PROVIDE Support To Help Manage Ulcerative Colitis (UC)
When used in addition to UC medications as part of your daily diet plan, probiotics:
Create a better balance by adding good (probiotic) bacteria to help control the bad bacteria
Help to protect and strengthen the intestinal barrier, preventing bad bacteria from sticking to and irritating the gastrointestinal tract
Reduce the immune response and inflammation caused by bad bacteria
Because the good bacteria that VSL#3® provides take some time to grow and colonize in the intestinal tract, it may take up to 30 days to start feeling the full benefits of VSL#3®.
For people with pouchitis
Pouchitis is the inflammation of an ileal pouch. An ileal pouch is surgically created to help manage UC. When pouchitis occurs, it can disrupt the quality of your life with symptoms of pain and fatigue.
VSL#3® is the advanced probiotic that provides support for the dietary management of pouchitis.
If you are looking for an option to help with your pouchitis, talk to your doctor.
