Synopsis

Bio-Kult Lepicol Plus+ is a multi-fibre-source product containing inulin and gentle psyllium husk, which contributes to maintaining normal bowel transit. Together these two ingredients can help ensure your recommended daily intake of fibre. The third key ingredient is a five-strain blend of live bacteria that are naturally present in the digestive system. Lepicol Plus+ also has the extra benefit of digestive enzymes and three botanicals: ginger root, peppermint leaf and fennel seed.

Chosen to be gentle yet effective, psyllium husks can be better for a sensitive bowel than other common sources of fibre such as wheat or bran. They help normalise stool size by retaining water and, at the same time, form a soft gel which eases the stool along the lower digestive tract to make evacuation easier.

Built on 30 years of research and expertise in gut health, Bio-Kult Lepicol Plus+ also contains five scientifically selected strains that support the microflora in your digestive tract and inulin, a fibre sourced from chicory root that helps feed good bacteria in the gut.

The specially chosen digestive enzymes included in Bio-Kult Lepicol Plus+ also help break down your food as it passes through the bowel, bringing additional digestive and gut support benefits.

Can I take too much fibre?

While fibre is an important part of a healthy diet, consuming more than what you’re used to may cause temporary digestive discomfort, such as bloating or gas. If you are increasing your fibre intake, it is often best to do so gradually and to ensure you drink plenty of water. This can help your body adjust more comfortably.

Always follow the recommended directions for use. If you have a medical condition, or any concerns about your fibre intake, please speak with your healthcare practitioner.

What do I do if I experience any discomfort whilst taking Lepicol Plus+?

It’s not uncommon for your digestive system to need a little time to adjust to increased fibre intake. If you experience bloating or digestive discomfort, try taking a smaller amount and building up gradually over time, whilst making sure you’re drinking enough water. If symptoms persist or you’re concerned, please speak to a healthcare practitioner.

I suffer from diarrhoea and constipation, will Lepicol Plus+ help in both situations?

Lepicol® Plus+ contains psyllium husk fibre, which absorbs in the digestive tract and helps support normal bowel function. Because of the way psyllium husk works, some people choose to use fibre supplements whether they experience occasional constipation or loose stools.

However, everyone’s digestive system is different and individual experiences may vary. It is important to take Lepicol® Plus+ as directed and drink plenty of water throughout the day.

If you have persistent diarrhoea, constipation, or any ongoing digestive symptoms, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional to determine any underlying cause and an appropriate plan for your needs.

Can Lepicol Plus+ cause side effects?

Lepicol® Plus+ is generally well tolerated, but some people may notice temporary digestive changes when they first start taking it. This is often related to an increase in fibre intake and may settle as the body adjusts.

We recommend introducing fibre gradually, following the directions for use, and drinking plenty of water. If you experience ongoing discomfort or have any concerns, please seek advice from a healthcare practitioner.

Who should check with a healthcare professional before using?

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or have an existing medical condition, or are experiencing ongoing digestive symptoms, we recommend speaking with a healthcare practitioner before using Lepicol®.

You should also seek medical guidance before giving Lepicol® to children to ensure it is suitable.

Can I take Lepicol Plus+ if I'm pregnant?

Lepicol® Plus+ can be taken when pregnant or breastfeeding. However, we would always suggest that you seek advice from your doctor or healthcare professional before taking nutritional supplements.

Can I take Lepicol® Plus+ If I'm on other medication?

Lepicol® can be used by many people as part of their daily routine. However, if you are taking any medication, its always a good idea to check with your doctor or pharmacist before use. Because the psyllium husk fibre may affect how some medicines are absorbed, they may recommend leaving a gap between taking your medication and Lepicol®.

Is Lepicol Plus+ safe for children to take?

Yes, Lepicol® Plus+ can be used by children according to the directions for use. If you are considering giving Lepicol® Plus+ to a child, we recommending seeking medical guidance first to ensure it is suitable for their needs.

Is Lepicol Plus+ safe to take every day and how long should i take it for?

Yes, Lepicol® Plus+ is designed to be taken daily as part of your regular routine when used according to the directions for use. As a source of dietary fibre, Lepicol® Plus+ can help you increase your daily fibre intake alongside a healthy diet and lifestyle. It is important to take Lepicol® with plenty of water.

There is no set length of time that Lepicol® Plus+ needs to be taken for. Many people choose to use it as part of their daily routine to help increase their fibre intake. Some people choose to use Lepicol® Plus+ for a short period when looking to increase their fibre intake or support during a particular time.

When should I take Lepicol Plus+?

We recommend taking Lepicol Plus+ 10 minutes before a meal. This is a guide and for some people the timing may vary to fit into their daily routine. Lepicol Plus+ can therefore, be taken any time of day to support the digestion of a meal.

How do I mix Lepicol Plus+ and how much water should I use?

Shake the powder before use, then mix with water or juice before consuming immediately. This should then be followed by a further glass of water. Always aim to consume a 250ml glass of liquid with every heaped teaspoon.

How long does Lepicol Plus+ take to work?

Everyone’s digestive system is unique, so experience with Lepicol® Plus+ can vary. Some people notice changes within a few days of increasing fibre intake, whilst for others it may take a little longer.

Is it normal to notice changes in bowel movements?

Yes, when increasing fibre intake, it’s not unusual to notice some changes in bowel habits as your digestive system adapts. This may include changes in frequency, consistency or regularity of bowel movements. These changes are often temporary, but if you have any concerns or experience ongoing symptoms, we recommend speaking with a healthcare practitioner.

What is the difference between Lepicol® and Lepicol® Plus+?

Lepicol® and Lepicol® Plus+ both contain psyllium husk alongside live bacteria and inulin. However, Lepicol® Plus+ contains additional digestive enzymes and botanicals that help digest food for extra support.

Is Lepicol® Plus+ a probiotic or prebiotic?

Alongside psyllium husk fibre and digestive enzymes, Lepicol® Plus+ contains 5 specially selected strains of live bacteria and inulin for gut and digestive support.

Is Lepicol® Plus+ the same as psyllium husk?
