    • How to use

      Recommended use

      Immune Support can be given to adults and children, from 4 years onwards, with the following recommendations:

      • For best results take 1 capsule daily with food, preferably with breakfast, or as professionally directed.
      • For those unable to swallow capsules, open and mix contents with cool drink/food.
      • May be used on an ongoing basis

      Storage instructions

      • For best results, do not remove desiccant sachet from the glass jar and close lid firmly after each use.
      • Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C and out of direct sunlight. For maximum potency, can be refrigerated after opening.

      Safety

      Live cultures are not recommended for those with serious medical conditions e.g. those who are severely immunosuppressed, have pancreatitis, are in the ICU, have melaena, have a central venous catheter, short bowel syndrome, or patients with open wounds following major surgery; unless under a doctor's care. Keep out of reach of children.

      Gut health supplements are not intended to prevent, treat or diagnose any medical conditions. If taking probiotic supplements for gut health, note that these should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you are taking any medications or have a serious medical condition, consult a doctor before use. Optibac supplements will not cause dependency and may be used on an ongoing basis.
