Ingredients:

Bacillus coagulans: Helps with lactose intolerance, digestion problems, stomach conditions, and controlling normal levels of cholesterol. It also enhances the immune response and inhibits bacterial pathogens.

Bacillus subtilis: Is a strong probiotic that combats harmful microorganisms in the human body particularly pathogenic bacteria that cause dysentery.

Enterococcus faecalis F-100: The Enterococci constitute a major genus of the lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Some Enterococci strains are used successfully as human probiotics in health supplements, like FiveLac and ThreeLac. Their success as probiotics has been attributed to factors such as acid and bile resistance.

Lactobacillus acidophilus: Some strains of L. acidophilus are considered "friendly" bacteria. These healthy bacteria inhabit the intestines and vagina and protect against unhealthy organisms. The breakdown of nutrients by L. acidophilus produces lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and other byproducts that make the environment hostile for undesired organisms. L. acidophilus also tends to consume the nutrients many other harmful microorganisms depend on. During digestion, L. acidophilus also assists in the production of niacin, folic acid, and pyridoxine. Some research has indicated L. acidophilus may provide additional health benefits, including improved gastrointestinal function, a boosted immune system, and a decrease in the frequency of vaginal yeast infections. Lactose intolerance: It is known that lactose intolerant people can digest the lactose in yogurt better than the same amount of lactose in milk because of the Lactobacillus acidophilus.

Bifidobacterium longum: One of the most important residents in the human gastrointestinal tract, B. longum keeps the digestive system running smoothly, blocks the growth of harmful bacteria, and boosts the immune system.

FiveLac’s other ingredients: Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid),Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine),Vitamin B1 (as thiamine),Vitamin B2 (as riboflavin)

Method of use (the same as for ThreeLac) Take one packet a day to start. Empty the packet contents into your mouth and follow with a few ounces of water. Or add powder to a few ounces of water and drink. If additional support is desired, you may build gradually to a higher number of packets for the first 60 days.

Amount needed may vary from person to person. Packets may be taken at any time of day, with or without meals. After 60 days, you may reduce to maintenance of 1 packet per day, as desired. Store in a cool, dry location. Do not store in an area that will reach above 120 degrees Fahrenheit or in direct sunlight.

Freezing or refrigeration is neither recommended nor required. Use individual packets within 24 hours of opening.

Discontinue use for 1 week after each 3 months of use. Flora Five is suggested for use during this 1 week period.

Flora Five® also supplies the body with Lactobacillus casei which has been found to be very resistant to gastric acidity and is able to grow very well in the presence of bile. L.casei meets the criteria to make a terrific probiotic.

Flora Five® also gives you Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus acidophilus which are two of the most studied probiotics offering significant support for healthy levels of bacteria in the digestive tract, and overall well-being.

Flora Five® includes Bifidobacterium longum which is of human origin. It is very resistant to gastric acidity and seems to be a good modulator of the immune system.

Other ingredients: Palm oil, gelatin, glycerin, lecithin and pectin.
