Optibac One Week Flat is an affordable, 7-day course of friendly bacteria in easy-to-take sachets. It is gluten-free and therefore may be suitable for those with bloating.

How often should I take Optibac One Week Flat live cultures?

Initially it’s best to take Optibac One Week Flat daily for one week to complement your natural gut bacteria. After that, people take a week’s course every month, or whenever they feel they need it. Others prefer to take one sachet every day on an ongoing basis. All of these options are absolutely fine! See what suits you best.

Can I take Optibac One Week Flat on a calorie-controlled diet?

With only 7.72 calories per sachet, and 0g of fat, it’s easy to include Optibac One Week Flat in your calorie-controlled diet. The carbohydrate content is mostly from natural FOS fibres which are indigestible with barely any calorific content.

Does Optibac One Week Flat taste nice?

Yes! One Week Flat is carefully formulated to have a slightly sweet, ‘neutral’ flavour which most people find pleasant to take. However, be reassured that the supplement contains no added flavourings, sugar, or sweeteners – the mild sweet taste comes from the natural Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) fibres.

Ingredients

Maltodextrin (natural source); Fructooligosaccharides (FOS 0.3g); Live cultures: Bifidobacterium bifidum Rosell-71, Lactobacillus casei Rosell-215, Lactococcus lactis Rosell-1058 and Lactobacillus acidophilus/helveticus Rosell-52

Each sachet guarantees 5 billion live cultures + 0.3g FOS fibres.

Following the taxonomic updates by a global team of scientists and published in April 2020, a reclassification has been advised for the L. casei species. The casei strain in the Optibac One Week Flat product is now also known as Lacticaseibacillus casei Rosell-215.

Recommended use

Natural food supplement suitable for adults and children (from 4 years onwards) with the following recommendations:

Take 1 sachet daily for 7 consecutive days, preferably with breakfast.
Pour an inch of water into a tall glass, leaving plenty of room for swirling.
Shake the sachet before gently sprinkling the powder into the glass.
Vigorously swirl the water around in the glass making sure the powder is dissolved.

We highly recommend you take One Week Flat for 7 consecutive days. Many consumers like to take this course once a month. However, it can be taken on an ongoing basis or as desired.

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, infants with short bowel syndrome, or patients with open wounds following major surgery; unless under a doctor's care. Keep out of reach of children.
