Description
- Pro-Biotics 50 contains 9 species of microorganisms
from non-dairy sources. Because each strain has an affinity
for a different part of the digestive tract, and a unique
mechanism of action, a product that delivers multiple strains
is preferable to single strain products.* - Pro-Biotics 50 also contains added
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), a soluble fiber and prebiotic
that selectively supports the proliferation of intestinal
probiotics for digestive tract health.*
Pro-Biotics 50 is:
- Guaranteed to contain 52.5 billion CFUs of
microorganisms in each vegetarian capsule. - A non-dairy multi probiotic product to best mimic
normal human flora.* - Recommended For:
* Individuals who are lactose intolerant*
* Normalizing digestion*
* Supporting regularity*
* Urologic support*
* Immune system support*
About the Formula
- Lactobacilli (L. acidophilus, L. rhamnosus, L. casei,
L. salivarius) are located in the small intestine and produce
lactic acid. Many strains of bacteria from the Lactobacillus
family have been shown to support regularity, urogenital
and vaginal health, production of the lactase enzymes and
protect the gut lining from unwanted materials.* - L. salivarius is a strain of beneficial bacterial that has been
shown to resist low pH conditions. It has also been shown
to support immune system function by modulating certain
cytokines (IL-10 and IL-12).* In vitro studies have shown that
L. salivarius strongly adheres to human epithelia cell lines.
This interaction with the mucosa demonstrates its support of
the intestinal immune system.* - Bifidobacteria (B. breve, B. longum, B. bifidum)
are located in the colon and produce lactic and acetic
acids, making the gut a very inhospitable place for
unwanted materials. Bifidobacteria have been shown to
promote regularity.* - Streptococcus thermophilus is also a lactic acid
producer, which lines the gut wall to provide a barrier
from unwanted materials, promotes regularity and
produces the lactase enzyme.* - Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are considered a soluble
fiber and prebiotic, which supports the growth of
beneficial microorganisms in the intestinal tract.*
