Introduction
INTRODUCTION ABOUT VITAGUT CAPSULEVITAGUT CAPSULE is a combination of Prebiotic and Probiotic which are food sources for probiotics and good microorganisms respectively. It is used to restore intestinal microflora in conditions like allergic disorders, diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome, and common colds. Poor eating habits, illness and some medicines deplete the body’s good microflora, which is important for maintaining a healthy digestive tract and promoting a healthy immune system. Probiotics are good microorganisms that provide many benefits like facilitating the digestion of food materials including milk products, strengthening the immune function and improving the nutritional status by taking Vitamin B complex and K. Prebiotics are the natural food source for the beneficial bacteria present in the intestine, that enable them to multiply steadily. VITAGUT CAPSULE should be used with caution in children. Before using this medicine, inform your doctor if you have diarrhoea, a weak immune system (due to chemotherapy or HIV infection), repeat urinary tract or vaginal infections, diabetes, phenylketonuria, or are on a restricted diet.
