Lactobacillus Reuteri Plus – Digestive balance, natural immunity, intestinal barrier and daily comfort through postbiotic synergy (probiotics + prebiotics)

Lactobacillus Reuteri Plus from Swanson is a modern synbiotic formula, combining intensely studied probiotic strains with a selective prebiotic to support the microbiome and its key functions. The formula delivers Lactobacillus reuteri (5 billion CFU) – a strain recognized for its ability to produce substances with protective role in the intestine – alongside Lactobacillus acidophilus (1 billion CFU) and Lactobacillus rhamnosus (1 billion CFU), two robust species with good intestinal adherence and excellent safety profile. The synergistic base is completed by NutraFlora® scFOS® (200 mg), short-chain fructooligosaccharides that selectively feed beneficial bacteria, amplifying the positive effects of live cultures.

Through multiple action—flora balancing, mucosal integrity support, immunity modulation and maintaining optimal physiological pH—Lactobacillus Reuteri Plus supports daily digestive comfort, transit regularity and general well-being.

Detailed Benefits of Lactobacillus Reuteri Plus (probiotic + prebiotic synergy)

• Rebalancing intestinal flora and efficient digestion

A stable microbiome supports nutrient transformation and comfortable digestion of varied meals. The combination L. reuteri + L. acidophilus + L. rhamnosus contributes to populating the mucosa with favorable bacteria and limits development of opportunistic species.

✅ Reduction of bloating and gas sensation
✅ More regular transit and increased abdominal comfort
✅ Supporting daily digestion, including during periods with irregular meals

• Intestinal barrier and protective pH

Intestinal epithelial integrity is essential for physiological selection of substances passing into circulation. Lactobacilli produce organic acids (lactic, acetic) that support favorable pH and contribute to maintaining tight junctions.

✅ Support for "tight junctions" and balanced permeability
✅ Less friendly environment for undesirable microbiota
✅ More resilient intestinal mucosa

• Natural immunity, balanced response

A large part of immune cells are associated with the intestine (GALT). Through metabolic signals, lactobacilli influence immune tone, maintaining balance between vigilance and tolerance.

✅ Supporting secretory IgA and mucosal defense
✅ Harmonized local immune response, without overstimulation
✅ Support during demanding periods for the body

• Synergistic effects through NutraFlora® scFOS® prebiotics

Short-chain fructooligosaccharides serve as selective "food" for probiotics, increasing their viability and contributing to short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production.

✅ Enhances friendly colonization and microbiome resilience
✅ Favors acetate/propionate/butyrate production – fuel for colonocytes
✅ Cumulative effect on motility and comfort

• Postprandial comfort and physiological fermentation control

A balanced microbial profile means "cleaner" fermentation, with fewer pro-irritative byproducts. L. reuteri is appreciated for its ability to generate protective compounds (e.g. reuterin) that influence intestinal ecology.

✅ More predictable fermentation, reduced discomfort after meals
✅ Stable intestinal environment, fewer pH fluctuations
✅ Supporting well-being after main meals

• Gut-brain axis: mental tone and clarity

The gut communicates permanently with the central nervous system. A balanced microbiome can contribute to emotional comfort and focus. L. rhamnosus and L. acidophilus are frequently mentioned in the context of gut-brain axis support.

✅ Sense of general comfort and tone stability
✅ Better focus as a result of smooth digestion
✅ Indirect support for rest quality through reduction of abdominal discomfort

• Metabolic balance and daily energy

By modulating flora composition and metabolites produced, probiotics can support more efficient nutrient utilization.
✅ Contribution to glucose homeostasis through SCFA
✅ More efficient energy use at colonocyte level
✅ Maintaining constant daily rhythm

• Comfort in situations that challenge the microbiome

Travel, dietary changes or stressful periods can destabilize flora. The total dose of 7 billion CFU (cumulative) ensures robust intake, easy to integrate into routine.

✅ Faster return to balance
✅ Supporting friendly microbial diversity
✅ Transit stabilization during transition periods

• Versatile for various lifestyles

Ideal for active people, busy routines or unpredictable diet, as well as for those seeking proactive microbiome care.

✅ Professionals and dynamic people who want digestive regularity
✅ Users interested in local immune support and abdominal comfort
✅ People who want a simple synbiotic, easy to include in a wellness routine

• Why synbiotic and why this combination?

L. reuteri stands out through production of compounds acting as "guardians" of the intestinal ecosystem, contributing to a controlled environment. L. acidophilus is a classic of intestinal balance, with good adherence and pH impact, while L. rhamnosus is appreciated for resilience and favorable interaction with mucosa. Together, these strains create a beneficial "front" with broad coverage. NutraFlora® scFOS® provides the nutritional substrate for these cultures, favoring their persistence and stimulating SCFA production involved in maintaining barrier integrity.

Lactobacillus Reuteri Plus, Swanson brings together complementary lactic strains and a next-generation prebiotic to offer complete microbiome support: digestive balance, robust intestinal barrier, local immunity and daily comfort in a coherent formula, easy to integrate into any well-being oriented routine.
