Probiotic-5

10 billion CFU per capsule

A soy- and dairy-free blend of key probiotic bacteria to promote gastrointestinal health

Each capsule of Probiotic-5 provides 10 billion CFU of five beneficial bacteria strains: Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Bifidobacterium lactis. This formula combines lactobacilli and bifidobacteria to promote gastrointestinal (G.I.) tract health. L. acidophilus and B. longum maintain healthy G.I. barrier function, in part by reinforcing the mucosal lining of the G.I. tract. Several trials have also revealed that mixed probiotic supplementation contributes to the maintenance of intestinal flora and gastrointestinal comfort. A study involving elderly individuals indicated that a mixture of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria promoted healthy gut ecology.

  • Promotes gastrointestinal health.
  • Provides 10 billion CFU per convenient once-daily capsule.
  • High–intensity, five-strain blend of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria.
