Features & Benefits
Mutaflor® is a practitioner and consumer-focused probiotic formula containing the well-researched probiotic strain Escherichia coli strain Nissle 1917 (EcN). This non-pathogenic, non-invasive bacterial strain naturally colonises the gastrointestinal tract and has been studied for its role in supporting gut health, bowel motility, and healthy bowel function.
Mutaflor® is commonly used to support:
- Relief and management of chronic constipation
- Increased bowel movement frequency
- Improved bowel regularity
- Healthy colonic motility
- Gut microbiome balance
- Long-term gastrointestinal health
- Healthy digestive function
The probiotic strain is able to attach to the intestinal mucosal layer through specialised fimbriae and colonise the bowel, where it produces short-chain fatty acids that help modulate colonic motility. This action is particularly relevant in individuals experiencing chronic constipation.
