Putrefactive bacteria
which are potentially detrimental to good health and
increase foul wind production are inhibited by acidic
conditions in the colon.
The presence of active bacteria in the gut can aid the
digestive process by helping to break down foods. To
attain the health benefits attributed to Lactobacilli
fermented foods, live active bacteria need to be
consumed on a regular basis. It is believed the
life span in the human body of these cells is 3 to 10
days. Only the active forms have the ability to tolerate
the acidity of the stomach and the alkalinity of the
intestine to produce health benefits.

Bacteria live and work in colonies.
There is a lot of confusion in the marketplace in
relation to the abundance or "count" of bacteria in
various probiotic products. Many companies are claiming
that their products have "billions" more bacteria than
other products to gain a marketing edge. This is very
misleading and, in reality, is little more than sales
hype.
Bacteria live and work in colonies. In scientific terms
these colonies are called, Colony-Forming Units (CFU's).
Some companies intentionally shake the colonies apart,
separating the CFU's, to increase the bacteria count of
their products, which is misleading to consumers.
The single most important factor in Probiotic food is
the reproduction ability of the bacteria.
The bacteria must be in their natural state and alive so
that once they arrive in the gut they can multiply and
produce all the sub-strains necessary to maintain a
healthy intestinal flora. To ensure that the bacteria
are in a natural state and have not been tampered with
or altered in any way it should be certified organic.
In-Liven has been certified by the ACO Australian
Certified Organic, Australia's largest certifying
body.

What kills good bacteria in the body?
Antibiotics
Birth control pills
Steroidal / hormonal drugs

Research has shown that Lactobacilli bacteria:
Reduce cholesterol in the blood
Increase nutrient assimilation, including calcium
Reduce high blood pressure
Assist in the elimination of ailments such as colon
irritation, constipation, diarrhoea and acne
Retard yeast infections
Strengthen the immune system
Manufacture and assimilate B complex vitamins (which
include niacin, biotin, folic acid, riboflavin and B12)
Help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats
Produce natural anti-bacterial agents
Produce cancer or tumor suppressing compounds
Control the pH or acidity-alkaline levels in the
intestines
Reduce unhealthy bacteria in the intestinal tract
Detoxify poisonous materials in the diet
Detoxify hazardous chemicals added to foods, such
as nitrates
The Lactobacilli bacteria used in In-Liven are the
result of 20 years of research.
Our unique lactobacilli bacteria have been subjected to
a large number of stressors including:
Heat, cold, chlorine, salt, alcohol and many
preservatives found in food.
This results in a "Super Family" of very strong
Lactobacilli unlike any others found in the world
today. It is also important to note that all the
bacteria in our formula are sourced from fruits,
vegetables or grains.

An effective Probiotic product should contain
Lactobacilli bacteria that can:
1. Maintain its high and active count through processing
and storage until consumption
2. Tolerate the acid conditions of the stomach
3. Tolerate bile salts
4. Increase its own numbers in the bowel and decrease
the numbers of competing bacteria.
The unique combination of whole foods and friendly
bacteria in In-Liven is a revolutionary breakthrough in
the world of nutrition and will become the benchmark
upon which all SUPER FOOD BLENDS will be measured.
The unique formulation of
In-Liven provides the
complete Lactobacillus family of:
13 strains combined with 26 whole foods for 3 weeks
prior to bottling.
During this three-week preparatory phase the formula is
pre-digested by those lactobacilli in the same way it is
in our own body. When consumed, the body is able to
instantly assimilate the broad spectrum of nutrients.
What if I think I am allergic to the ingredients in
In-Liven?
Allergic reactions to grains are generally caused by:
1. Compromised gut bacteria resulting in the body's
inability to break down the protein (gluten) in the
wheat.
2. A reaction to the synthetic chemicals used to grow
the wheat. The In-Liven formula has been pre-digested
by the lactobacilli bacteria, so all the protein has
already been broken down, and all the ingredients are
certified organic, eliminating the use of synthetic
chemicals.
In-Liven is a Super Food containing: 18 Amino Acids,
including the 8 essentials; significant enzymes and a
broad spectrum of essential nutrients.
The formula contains the complete Lactobacillus
family: acidophilus, delbruekii, caseii, bulgaricus,
causasicus, fermenti, plantarum, brevis, heleveticus,
lactis, bifidus, leichmanni and sporogenes.
It also includes:
Organic Spirulina - one of the single richest and
most complete sources of total organic nutrition in the
world.
Organic Alfalfa Grass - a complete protein with
vitamins A, B, C, D, E, F K and rich in calcium,
magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements.
Organic Barley Grass that has an incredible
concentration of minerals, vitamins, trace elements,
protein and live enzymes.
Organic Wheat Grass which is extremely high in
chlorophyll and has a molecular structure very similar
to the haemoglobin of human blood.
Chlorophyll is the blood of the plant and is
extremely rich in nutrients.
Other organic ingredients include: Rolled Oats,
Brown Rice, Wheat Grain, Pearl Barley, Linseed, Kidney
Beans, Mung Beans, Adzuki Beans, Red Lentils, Chick
Peas, Beetroot, Sweet Potato, String Beans, Zucchini,
Cabbage, Silverbeet, Spinach, Chinese Cabbage,
Asparagus, Broccoli, Malt Liquid and Molasses as well as
Saccharomyces Cerevisiae and Saccharomyces Boulardii.
