Poor digestion and irregular bowel movements seem to go hand-in-hand. Tend to your digestive health and good bowel health should follow.

Irregular bowel movements can be caused by bad diet, lack of exercise, side-effects from medicines, pregnancy and old age, to name a few. They are also a sign of your digestive system not working as it should.

If there’s an imbalance in the gut where bad bacteria outweighs the good, food may not move through your system the way it’s supposed to.

WHY IS DIGESTION SO IMPORTANT?
Food digestion involves the mixing of food, its movement through the digestive tract, and the chemical breakdown of large molecules of food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed into the blood and carried to cells throughout the body.

Digestion begins in the mouth, when we chew and swallow, and is completed in the small intestine where food is dissolved in juices from the pancreas, liver, and intestine.

It’s a production line that depends on all parts of the digestive system working in unison. When one falls out of line, your ‘regularity’ and overall digestive health will be affected.

INTRODUCING PHLOE HEALTHY BOWEL
There’s now a natural digestive aid that is clinically shown to keep you regular while also supporting long-term digestive health.

Phloe Healthy Bowel capsules are 100% natural (derived from kiwifruit) and the first to combine prebiotics, enzymes and fibre to help your digestive system work the way it’s supposed to.

UNIQUE TRIPLE-ACTION COMPLEX
Phloe Healthy Bowel contains:

Enzymes – to help gently ‘move’ waste product through the digestive system and break down food.
Fibre – to add bulk to your stool, which helps it move through the digestive tract more comfortably.
Prebiotics – to help restore balance in your digestive tract by helping good bacteria grow, while inhibiting the bad (or pathogenic) bacteria

FOR DAILY USE
Phloe Healthy Bowel should be used daily to help your digestive system work the way it’s supposed to all of the time.

For best results, a booster dose of up to 4 capsules a day for the first five days is recommended.

MORE THAN SIMPLY FIBRE
While fibre is known to keep you regular, fibre alone won’t rebalance your digestive system where the problem often begins in the first place.

Phloe Healthy Bowel capsules contain fibre to help bulk stools in the same way as fibre-only supplements, but it’s the enzymes in the product that help break down food and gently ‘move’ waste through the digestive tract.

And it’s the prebiotics that help rebuild a healthy balance of bacteria in the gut, and a healthy digestive system in the long run.

Always read the label and use as directed. Do not take if you have a known allergy to Kiwifruit. Vital Foods, Auckland. TAPS PP5326
