About Giornate Capsule

Giornate Capsule belongs to the class of probiotics used to treat conditions such as diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome, and antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is a condition characterised by loose and watery stools with a frequent need to have a bowel movement. An irritable bowel syndrome is a group of intestinal symptoms that occur together. 

Giornate Capsule is a combination of probiotics (live strains of bacteria that keeps the body healthy) and prebiotics (types of fibre that act as food for friendly bacteria). Giornate Capsule helps to restore good bacteria in the intestines.
