11 bacterial strains plus inulin
We want to be able to stand fully behind all our products. That is why we produce in compliance with the strictest European regulations in Denmark, Germany and Italy. We use only scientifically tested ingredients.
Nupure probaflor is therefore free of unnecessary additives and contains neither lactose nor gluten.
>Studies
Below you will find some excerpts on intestinal bacteria from scientific articles
From "Probiotics: how should they be defined?" by S. Salminen, A. Ouwehand, Y. Benno, Y. K Lee.
"Probiotics are microbial cell preparations or components of microbial cells that have a beneficial effect on host health and well-being."
From "Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics--approaching a definition" by J. Schrezenmeir , M. de Vrese
"Probiotics refer to so-called "friendly," nonpathogenic bacterial or yeast microbiota that are intended to benefit the host by altering the microflora through implantation or colonization."
From "Probiotics and prebiotics: microflora management for improved gut health" by Roy Fuller and Glenn R. Gibson
"There is evidence of activity of probiotics against a variety of intestinal pathogens. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of action are poorly defined. However, it can be surmised that one or more of the following possible effects are at play
- Competition for nutrients
- Secretion of antimicrobial substances
- Lowering of the pH value in the intestine
- Blocking of adhesion sites
- Suppression of virulence
- Blocking of toxin receptor sites
- Immunostimulation (local and systemic)
- Suppression of toxin production"

Plus inulin
In addition, nupure probaflor contains the dietary fiber inulin from chicory.
Intake
Take one capsule daily unchewed before breakfast with plenty of liquid. To achieve a rapid gastric passage, nupure probaflor should be taken about 10-20 minutes before breakfast.
Special protection due to special packaging.
To ensure the highest possible survival rate, the bacteria must be carefully preserved and stored.
So-called freeze-drying removes water from the active bacteria, bringing their metabolism to a virtual standstill. When they come into contact with water again, they recover to become active organisms capable of reproducing.
Nupure probaflor plus contains 25 billion CFU (colony forming units) per daily dose. To ensure this high amount of live cultures compared to similar products, nupure probaflor plus is packaged in the absence of air. This ensures the delivery of a product protected from oxygen and moisture.
Moisture protection even after opening
To protect the capsules from moisture even after opening, we use so-called Activ-Vial cans. These are provided with a special lining that immediately absorbs penetrating moisture. This increases the survival time of the bacteria.
To ensure the longest possible shelf life and a good survival rate of the bacteria, the product should always be stored in a light-protected, cool and dry place, even after purchase.
>Important notes
The product should always be stored out of reach of children.
Do not exceed the specified recommended daily intake.
Food supplements are not intended as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Do not take during pregnancy and lactation.
>Transparency
Transparent production
When it comes to your health, it's important to feel safe. Often, when it comes to dietary supplements, you can hardly find any information about the origin of the product, let alone the purity or raw materials. We want to change that with a new transparency.

>FAQ
What can disturb the natural intestinal flora?
Taking antibiotics often leads to a partial or even complete destruction of one's own intestinal flora. However, other factors such as stress, poor nutrition or even psychological problems can also disrupt the intestinal flora and promote faulty colonization by unwanted microorganisms.
What happens when the intestinal flora is disturbed?
If the immune system is weak or if the balance of bacteria is upset in some other way, such as through poor nutrition, health problems can arise, especially due to an excessive proliferation of species of the yeast Candida. Intestinal inhabitants that are helpful under normal circumstances can then trigger inflammatory reactions or form unpleasant gases, leading to a variety of digestive problems. In addition, the immune system can also be further weakened.
What is chicory root extract?
Chicory root extract is a pure vegetable substance that is particularly rich in inulin. This soluble fiber cannot be digested by humans. It serves as a nutrient of some important bacteria that colonize the human intestine and can promote their settlement and multiplication.
In addition, it can have a positive effect on digestion by stimulating intestinal motility.
Is the product suitable for children?
No. Nupure probaflor plus is expressly adapted to the adult intestinal flora, which is different from that of children. For children over the age of three, we have the specially developed nupure probaflor junior in our range.
Should I store the probiotic in the refrigerator?
Nupure probaflor plus can - but does not have to - be stored in the refrigerator. However, make sure that the can is tightly closed to avoid moisture penetration.
Why do nupure products contain precisely these bacterial strains?
The strains contained in nupure probaflor plus are carefully selected to ensure optimal interaction as well as the broadest possible spectrum.
Lactobacillus
Lactobacilli are lactic acid bacteria that occur naturally in the intestine, where they break down sugar molecules.
Bifidobacteria digest glucose via lactic acid fermentation.
Both species produce acids such as lactic acid during their metabolic processes. This lowers the pH value in the intestine.
Streptococcus thermophilus
This lactic acid bacterium can digest lactose and sucrose (household sugar). In this process, it also produces, among other things, the enzyme lactase, which is used for the prevention of lactose intolerance.
Does the product contain lactose?
No, the product is free of lactose.
Is the product free of genetic engineering (GMO free)?
Yes, nupure probaflor plus is GMO-free, i.e. free of genetically modified organisms.
Are the capsules enteric-coated?
Yes, the capsule shell is enteric-coated.
