5 ting du bør vite før du velger melkesyrebakterier

De siste årene har stadig flere fått øynene opp for melkesyrebakterier.

Mange ulike produkter har dukket opp på markedet, og valgmulighetene er nærmest uendelige. Det betyr at du som forbruker må orientere deg i jungelen av muligheter, og finne det produktet som passer best for deg og dine behov.

For det er ikke det samme hvilket produkt du velger. Melkesyrebakterier kommer i ulike varianter, fra ulike leverandører, og fungerer på forskjellige måter. Dette er fordi de består av ulike bakteriestammer. 

Tenk på samme måte som når du velger et vitamintilskudd. Ønsker du sunnere hår, velger du kanskje et produkt som inneholder biotin. Vil du opprettholde skjelettet, kan du ta kalsium. Men du ville vel ikke tatt kalsium for hårets skyld, eller biotin for skjelettet?

Det samme kan sies om om melkesyrebakterier. Skaffer du deg litt kunnskap på feltet, blir det lettere å velge de melkesyrebakteriene som passer best for deg og dine behov.

1. Det viktigste er bakteriestammen

Det viktigste å ta hensyn til når du skal velge et produkt, er hvilke bakteriestammer det inneholder. 

Ikke alle kosttilskudd inneholder de samme bakteriestammene. Prodiga inneholder 4 milliarder levende melkesyrebakterier fra 8 ulike bakteriestammer:

  • Lactobacillus acidophilus
  • Lactobacillus salivarius
  • Lactobacillus rhamnosus
  • Lactobacillus casei
  • Bifidobacterium longum
  • Bifidobacterium bifidum
  • Bifidobacterium lactis
  • Steptococcus thermophilus

Informasjon om dette finner du tydelig merket på pakken

2. Bakteriene må være i live for å gjøre jobben

Melkesyrebakterier er levende bakterier. For at de skal kunne gjøre jobben sin, må bakteriene holdes i live helt frem til bestemmelsesstedet – tarmen. 

Og selv om en matvare på et eller annet tidspunkt inneholder levende bakterier, lever de farlig.

Bakteriene kan påvirkes på mange måter, både i produksjonen, når de fraktes, og når de skal oppbevares. For eksempel er bakterier svært følsomme for varme. Noen tåler ikke romtemperatur, og må oppbevares i kjøleskap.

3. Jo mere bakterier, desto bedre? Nei, ikke nødvendigvis.

For å sikre riktige doser av de melkesyrebakterier i et kosttilskudd, brukes en måleenhet som kalles kolonidannende enhet (CFU). Og det kan være lett å tro at et høyt CFU-tall betyr at produktet er av høy kvalitet – i alle fall hvis du leser på pakken på en del typer kosttilskudd. Men det stemmer ikke. Sørg for å velge riktig type av riktig kvalitet. 

4. Ikke alle bakterier er testet

I tarmen din finnes det milliarder av bakterier. Det betyr at det også finnes veldig mange ulike bakteriestammer som kan finnes i forskjellige produkter. 

Når du skal velge et produkt med melkesyrebakterier, er det klokt å undersøke at dette produktet inneholder det du ser etter. 

5. Riktig emballasje holder bakteriene i live

Når du skal velge et tilskudd, er det viktig at produktet har høy nok kvalitet. Siden bakteriene er svært sensitive for ytre påvirkning er riktig emballasje helt avgjørende.

  1. Risk Transfer

The risk for the good(s) passes to the buyer when he, or his representative, has had the goods delivered in accordance with clause 6.

Please read the information leaflet included in the shipment as well as the information on the product packaging carefully with regard to the recommended dosages etc.
