How to Choose a Probiotic for Travel
When choosing a probiotic for travel, several factors are especially important: the number of probiotic strains, the amount of colony-forming units (CFU), storage requirements, and ease of use while travelling.
HMF Travel Genestra is specially formulated to provide convenient probiotic support while travelling. Its formula provides 35 billion CFU per daily dose and combines five strains from the Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Saccharomyces genera.
One of its main advantages is its shelf-stable formula. Unlike some probiotics that require continuous refrigeration, HMF Travel Genestra can be transported more easily in luggage, making it a practical option when travelling.
When Might HMF Travel Genestra Be a Good Choice?
Changes in diet, different schedules, travel-related stress, and unfamiliar foods or beverages can temporarily affect the balance of the intestinal flora. HMF Travel Genestra is a probiotic supplement designed to support gastrointestinal health and help maintain healthy intestinal flora, particularly while travelling.
This formula may be especially useful:
- before and during travel;
- when eating habits temporarily change;
- to support the balance of the intestinal microflora;
- for people looking for a probiotic that does not require continuous refrigeration;
- to help reduce the risk of occasional diarrhea associated with digestive disturbances.
A Combination of Five Probiotic Strains
HMF Travel Genestra contains a combination of five selected probiotic strains:
- Lactobacillus acidophilus CUL-60;
- Lactobacillus acidophilus CUL-21;
- Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM-I-1079;
- Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis CUL-34;
- Bifidobacterium bifidum CUL-20.
Each capsule provides 17.5 billion CFU. The recommended daily dose of two capsules therefore provides a total of 35 billion CFU.
