Product Ingredients
All of the probiotics in Probiotic Blend help re-establish bacterial
balance, increasing the numbers of the good guys, and keeping the bad guys
from taking over. Additionally, each probiotic has benefits of its own.
The probiotics in Probiotic Blend include:
Lactobacillus strains
The Lactobacillus strains are so named because they produce an enzyme
when breaking down foods called lactase.
This enzyme helps to break down lactose (milk sugar) - great news for people
who avoid dairy products due to lactose intolerance.
L. acidophilus can also combat candida overgrowth, so anyone who
frequently suffers from yeast infections will want to take this strain as a
first course of action. And studies have shown that L. acidophilus enhances
immunity, so you may experience fewer colds and flus if you’re taking it.
L. rhamnosus is one of the most intensely studied probiotic
strains. It is well documented to help folks recover from diarrhea — and to
prevent it from happening in the first place.
L. salivarius has the unique ability to eradicate the dreaded
Helicobacter pylori bacterium, which is now known to be the major cause of
peptic ulcers. This strain secretes a high amount of lactic acid, which
completely inhibits the growth of H. pylori.
L. fermentum is a well-characterized probiotic strains with
efficacy in the prevention and treatment of urogenital infections in women.
It also produces hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and is believed to inhibit the
growth of intestinal and urogenital pathogens.
L. plantarum strains have been shown to offer benefits such as
lining and defending the colon, relief of diarrhea associated with
antibiotics, reduction of bloating associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome,
improved mucosal status and a reduction of mucosal inflammation.
Bifidobacterium strains, including B. bifidum and B. longum
Bifidobacteria are prominent probiotic microorganisms in the intestines.
They are well-known to alleviate both constipation and diarrhea. Like
acidophilus, bifidobacteria also activate the immune system, helping produce
antibodies and increase resistance to toxins.
Prebiotic creates the optimal environment for probiotics to flourish.
Product Details
Why you need probiotics.
If you ate a mostly raw foods diet, did not take any over-the-counter or
prescription medications, did not drink alcohol, refrained from smoking, led
a stress-free lifestyle, and avoided fatty and sugary foods, you probably
wouldn’t need a probiotic supplement.
But for the rest of us, probiotic supplements can be a godsend.
As you probably guessed, all of those lifestyle factors kill off
beneficial bacteria. And that’s not good, because beneficial bacteria are
pretty darn helpful to the human body. They ease digestion, aid constipation
and diarrhea, enhance immune function, manufacture B vitamins and gut
nutrients, support the health of the skin, and even appear to lower
cholesterol levels.
In a healthy digestive system, there should be between three to four
pounds of probiotics. But take one round of antibiotics and bam — those good
bacteria are all wiped out. Many practitioners estimate that on average,
people have only 25 percent of the optimal amount of probiotics.
What happens when the friendly flora get killed off? The bad ones, which
are always present in small amounts in your gastro-intestinal system, take
over. If you’ve ever had food poisoning or a yeast infection, you know what
it’s like when that happens.
However, bacterial problems aren’t always so obvious. Many folks are
suffering from low-level flora imbalance — and don’t even realize it.
They write off their gas, diarrhea, bloating, constipation, yeast
overgrowth, and even more serious GI conditions as “indigestion.” But
indigestion is not a normal state! It always has a reason. Part of that
reason is that as a culture, we are eating mounds of enzyme-deficient cooked
foods that are almost impossible to digest.
But another part is that we’re making lifestyle choices that kill off our
populations of friendly flora.
The reason nearly half of probiotic formulas are useless.
There are plenty of probiotic formulas on the market. But a probiotic
won’t do you an ounce of good if the bacteria it contains are dead. And
independent testing from ConsumerLabs.com has found that phenomenon is more
widespread than you’d think. Of the 16 brands of probiotics the company
tested for potency, 44 percent had fewer live organisms than claimed or
generally known to be effective.
How could that happen? How could a company sell a probiotic product that
doesn’t have enough live bacteria?
Because probiotics are fragile things. They can be destroyed by light, heat,
and moisture. So if a probiotic manufacturer isn’t extremely careful to
protect their friendly flora from these elements during manufacturing and
packaging, they’re basically selling you a dead product.
But wait, it gets worse. Say the manufacturer has taken care to protect
their probiotics from light, heat, and moisture. Say you buy the bottle and
it does have all the bacteria it promises to. That’s no guarantee those
bacteria will survive the extremely acidic environment of the stomach once
you swallow the capsule. Stomach acid is lethal to good bacteria.
So unless your probiotic tablets or capsules have some kind of protection
from stomach acid, once again, they’re useless.
Gastric Acid Bypass (GAB™) technology protects in two ways.
Probiotic Blend is different than other probiotic products
because it feature Gastric Acid Bypass (GAB™) technology. This
advanced technology protects beneficial bacteria in two ways:
1. First, GAB™ protects from light, heat, and
moisture, so when you buy a bottle of Probiotic Blend, you can be
confident it’s full of live, beneficial bacteria. It even stays stable
without refrigeration!
2. Second, once swallowed, GAB™ protects the
live bacteria from harsh stomach acid, delivering them directly into the
intestines over a period of time, where they can colonize and flourish.
Live in the bottle…live in your body. Just the way you want it.
Seven strains are better than one.
Lactobacillus acidophilus is the most common beneficial bacteria you’ll
find in probiotic formulas. However, there are multiple strains of friendly
flora that normally inhabit the GI tract. So why supplement with just one
strain, when you could supplement with seven?
Probiotic Blend features seven research-backed strains of good
bacteria — including Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum,
Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus salivarius, Bifidobacterium longum,
Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus plantarum — so it more closely
imitates the natural makeup of your friendly flora.
