Microencapsulation is an advanced technology that makes the probiotics in Lemira® Motherhood Daily more stable, protected, and effective than conventional probiotics. Each probiotic cell is coated with a tiny protective lipid layer (a natural fat barrier) that shields the bacteria from stomach acid, moisture, and heat.
This protective layer helps more of the live bacteria survive the journey through the digestive system and reach the intestines, where they can provide their beneficial effects. As a result, microencapsulated probiotics can be up to 80% more effective than conventional probiotics, which are more easily damaged before reaching the gut.
