When is the best time to take Oriyen Bifidus-100?
The best time is after a meal, when the pH in our stomach is 3.5. The patented strain of Bifidobacterium Longum can withstand acids at this pH and reach where it is needed – the large intestine where most harmful organisme are found. When we are hungry, the pH is 2.5 in our stomach. Only about 3 billion Bifidobacterium Longum can survive at this pH. Acidic foods or drinks may increase the acidic content of the stomach. To minimize the impact of acids on Bifidobacterium Longum, take Oriyen Bifidus – 100 at least half an hour after you have taken acidic foods such as sour asam, asam laksa, or acidic drinks such as orange, lime, lemon, apple juices, etc. As Bifidobacterium Longum is readily killed by heat, hot water, hot drinks, hot soups, hot porridge should not be taken to wash it down.
