More than just
another probiotic
Glutapak® R provides 10 g of glutamine and 100 million colony-forming units (CFU) of the superior probiotic, Lactobacillus reuteri. Glutamine nourishes intestinal cells and helps repair damage to the intestinal walls due to injury or disease, improving digestion and absorption. Lactobacillus reuteri restores the intestinal flora and inhibits the growth of pathogens that cause diarrhea and other intestinal problems.

Probiotics are live microorganisms that are added to food or medicine and have beneficial effects on the health of the subjects who consume them. Probiotics can be of bacterial and yeast origin.
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle (nearly 60% of the total amount of amino acids) and in human blood plasma. Glutamine is classified as a “non-essential amino acid”, that is, our body can synthesize a certain amount from other amino acids (valine and isoleucine). Despite not being part of the “essential amino acids” to a certain extent, it is considered “semi-essential” since only in certain situations is the body capable of synthesizing the amount necessary to meet physiological demand.
Glutamine is the essential nutrient of the intestinal cell, among others. Therefore, it improves the intestinal villi – improving the absorption of Liquids and Electrolytes – improves the absorption of nutrients – stimulates the immune system
Colonization of beneficial bacteria restoring the Microbiota- favors the production of IgA (Immune System) Modifies the pH
Dissolve the content of one sachet in 60 ml of water or clear liquids.
NO – Extreme temperature inactivates Lactobacillus
Depends on the diagnosis can be calculated by the recommendation of Glutamine (0.5 g/kg weight day)
If it can be used in this patient , in the absence of severe neutropenia ( at the doctor ‘s discretion ) , lactobacillus reuteri is safe in immunosuppressed patients .
Restores intestinal function (improves absorption of fluids and nutrients) – Improves nutritional status – Improves immune response (increases intestinal CD4 lymphocytes)
Because it produces more than one type of acid (lactic and acetic), it lowers the pH, being hostile to pathogens.
Counteracts dysbiosis caused by the antibiotic
When the patient has severe neutropenia and/or severe DNT with neutropenia due to risk of bacterial translocation, GI bleeding
