Verifiable Science

This dairy-free, soy-free formula provides 10 billion CFU of the beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium bifidumand Bifidobacterium lactis. L. acidophilus and B. longum promote healthy cytokine production in the colon and maintain healthy G.I. barrier function, in part by supporting the mucosal lining of the G.I. tract.¹ Several trials have also revealed that mixed probiotic supplementation helps maintain intestinal flora, support healthy yeast balance and promote G.I. comfort.^2,3 Studies also suggest that probiotics support immune health, enhancing B cell, T cell and NK cell function.^4,5‡
