How it works
Live and active bacteria supplements only work if their bacteria can survive stomach acid and reach your gut alive.
Our products are designed precisely for that, thanks to our capsule structure and aluminium-aluminium double-walled chamber packaging.
Our bacterial strains are kept alive during storage by our state-of-the-art alu-alu blisters. Other available forms of packaging often fail to keep out moisture, which can kill the precious bacteria. With Kijimea, each capsule is kept in its own individual chamber. Only this way we can make sure that the bacteria are still alive at the time of consumption.
Our capsules are made from modified hydroxypropyl methylcellulose of plant origin. This protects the bacteria during their passage through the stomach and small intestine and ensures a delayed release. In this way, the valuable bacteria actually reach the large intestine.
For bacteria to successfully colonise the gut, they need a suitable foundation to grow on - namely, a healthy intestinal lining. The problem: when your microbiome is damaged, the intestinal lining is often affected as well. That is why our probiotic products contain substances such as niacin and/or riboflavin, which help to support the intestinal lining.
Our approach
Every ingredient in our Kijimea products has a job to do, supporting our live bacteria strains so they can reach your intestines alive and are ready to support you.
Kijimea K53 Advance and Kijimea FloraCare: Carefully selected strains that naturally occur in your microbiomes, each chosen for its scientifically proven potential, its synergies, and ability to support a thriving microbiome.
Kijimea IBS PRO: Like a plaster for an irritated bowel, clinically proven to be effective.
Our aluminium-aluminium double-walled chamber packaging ensures that the bacteria stay alive and are still active when you are ready to take the product, unlike those in glass or plastic bottles.
Our bacteria are contained within capsules, which ensure a delayed release during passage, so that the bacteria actually reach the large intestine alive and survive your stomach acid.
The science
No bacterial strain in our preparations is a matter of chance. Based on scientific evidence, we carefully select specific bacterial strains to combine them for optimal effectiveness and synergies.
Kijimea is the result of 10 years of research, including four gold standard trials with leading researchers, showing the quality of our products.
From my practical experience I know that it is crucial for products to be supported by scientific evidence, especially if they are to be recommended in pharmacies. Kijimea has always put this evidence at the forefront of what it does.
The microbiome
The intestinal microbiome is the umbrella term for all microorganisms (bacteria, archaea, viruses and fungi) in our digestive tract. It is also referred to as the second human genome, as the multitude of different organisms exists within us almost like an organ of its own.
It represents a highly complex system that is home to trillions of microbes - mostly bacteria - that play a vital role in your overall health - from digestion to immunity, even mood and skin.
The composition of the intestinal microbiome can be negatively influenced by a number of factors, including stress, medication (especially antibiotics), infections, diet and many more. In those cases some bacterial strains might become dominant and crowd out others, or the overall number of bacteria might be reduced. This state, called dysbiosis, is associated with a number of negative outcomes on your whole body!
By feeding your microbiome certain bacteria every day, you can start your day feeling balanced from the inside out.
