Product Code: NHP-161-LB8603500mlMaintain bowel regularity
Views vary as to what constitutes irregularity but most now agree that anyone who passes hard stools and does so less than three times a week is considered to be irregular. The most common cause of this problem is a low intake of fibre. It has been recommended that we eat 18 to 20g of fibre per day, we typically only eat 8 to 10g.
Prunes, figs and dates are all fruits that have traditionally been used to increase the intake of fibre in the diet. Here all three have been concentrated to provide a tasty natural blend and a special natural soluble fibre called FOS that has been extracted from chicory roots has also been added. FOS is known to act as a prebiotic, which encourages the friendly bacteria in the bowel to flourish and this can help maintain regularity by gently stimulating the bowel wall.
Just 10ml (2 teaspoons) provides over 5 grams of soluble fibre. Not only is it easy to use but pleasant to taste and appropriate for those 5 years and over.
Dosage:
Shake well before use.
Children 5 to 15 years:
Take 5-10ml (1-2 teaspoons) daily.
Adults:
Take an initial dose of 10ml (2 teaspoons) daily, for the first 3 days and then a full dose of 20ml (4 teaspoons) daily for a least 2 weeks. A maintenance dose of 10-20ml (2-4 teaspoons) can then be taken.
An inadequate fluid intake is a also a prime cause of irregularity ? approximately 1.5 litres of fluid a day is needed to supply sufficient water for the digestive system to keep waste matter soft and bulky. Any less than this is likely to lead to dry and hard faeces that are difficult to pass. Patients on Fibrecleanseİ should drink at least 1.5 litres of fluids per day.
Take as above or as directed by a practitioner or pharmacist. Do not exceed recommended daily dose. Food supplements should not be a substitute for a varied diet.
