Lepicol capsules are made of natural source ingredients that help to maintain the efficient action of the bowels. Taken daily, the capsules are an easy and convenient way of taking additional fibre and friendly bacteria to help ensure regular bowl movements. Lepicol Healthy Bowels give an extra dose of fibre from psyllium husk plus fructo-oligosaccharides (prebiotics) and lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidum bacteria (probiotics).
Recommended Dosage
Adults: Initially take eight to ten capsules twice daily 20-25 minutes before meals with 2 glasses of water. After 2 weeks it should be possible to halve the above dosages. Children/Young Adults: The capsules can be opened and the contents mixed with water or juice and consumed immediately, if preferred. Take 4-5 capsules twice daily before a meal with 1 full glass of water or fruit juice. After 2 weeks it should be possible to halve the above dosages. Parents should seek the guidance of a practitioner before giving Lepicol to children under 11 years. Liquid Intake: Aim for a minimum of 1 glass of water (250ml) for every 5 capsules of Lepicol. General Guidelines As Lepicol isn't absorbed by the body, it is suitable for regular everyday use. Safeguard your fibre intake by adjusting according to requirements. Some may find it necessary to revert back to the initial intake recommendation, whilst others may find that they require less.
