Product Information

Lepicol is a completely natural high fibre food for help maintaining and sustaining healthy bowels. Lepicol has been formulated to help support the cleansing and regulation of the bowels in a gentle, natural way and is suitable for regular, everyday use. Lepicol - Healthy Bowels Formula helps to maintain normal blood-sugar levels. Lepicol contains 3 main ingredients: The main fibre source within Lepicol is psyllium husk ( Plantago ovata). Psyllium husks are a great fibre supplement as it is able to normalise stool size by being water retentive and, at the same time, forms a soft gel which eases the stool along the lower digestive tract ready for evacuation. Psyllium husks have the advantage of being much gentler than some common fibre supplements (such as wheat or bran), many of which could irritate a sensitive bowel. Probiotics Enhanced Nutrient Absorption: By promoting a healthy digestive system, Lepicol powder may enhance the absorption of nutrients from food, leading to better overall nutritional status. Weight Management: The fiber in Lepicol powder can help create a feeling of fullness and reduce overall caloric intake, potentially aiding in weight management efforts.

On testing the final Lepicol, small traces of casein have been detected so would not be suitable for those with a severe milk allergy (to milk proteins). Tests have also shown that many of our strains produce lactase, the enzyme deficient in lactose intolerant sufferers necessary to breakdown lactose (the milk sugar).
