Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Ease IBS symptoms with VITAGEN
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects 15% of Malaysians, especially women and those under 45. Symptoms like diarrhoea, constipation, and bloating are more than just tummy troubles—they can impact daily life. VITAGEN’s clinically proven probiotics help ease IBS symptoms, reduce discomfort, and support a more balanced, resilient gut.
Immunity
Strengthen immunity through better gut health with VITAGEN
Around 70% of your immune cells live in your gut. VITAGEN is clinically proven to support a healthier gut environment, reduce inflammation, and help your immune system work more effectively.
The above findings are based on two separate clinical studies involving VITAGEN.
- The first study, conducted in 2017 by the Gastroenterology & Hepatology Unit at Pusat Perubatan Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, involved 165 healthy adults and IBS patients from the Klang Valley. Results were based on the consumption of three bottles of VITAGEN daily.
- The second study, conducted in 2024 by the GUT Research Group at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (HUKM), investigated the effects of Lactobacillus-containing cultured milk on mood among IBS patients with sub-threshold depression. Participants consumed two bottles of VITAGEN daily over a 12-week period.
