Product details
Lepicol Plus+, Food Supplement 3 in 1 formulation, high in fibre containing inulin, live bacteria and digestive enzymes
Fibre for health.
Fibre is a key part of our dietary intake to ensure we maintain a healthy bowel. Not eating enough fibre can lead to digestive problems such as constipation and other chronic digestive disorders.
Why Lepicol plus+ with Digestive Enzymes?
Lepicol is a multi-fibre source product containing gentle psyllium husk, as well as inulin which is a prebiotic fibre source. Together, these two ingredients go a long way to help provide your recommended daily intake of fibre - something that many of us lack with the modern diet. The third key ingredient of Lepicol are 5 probiotic strains. These bacteria help to balance the microflora in your digestive tract. Lepicol plus+ has the extra benefit of digestive enzymes.
