Supplement Spotlight: Mega Proflora
High dose of 100 billion live bacteria to provide robust immune support.*
Probiotics are naturally-occurring protective bacteria that sup-port health in several ways:
- Raising antibody immune cells that fight off invading pathogens.*
- Assisting with digestion and absorption of nutrients.*
- Helping fight overgrowth of harmful bacteria.*
- Maintaining bowel health and avoiding constipation.*
- Restoring friendly bacteria after antibiotics or stomach illness.*
- Supporting blood sugar health and insulin sensitivity.*
How Does A Deficiency Occur?
The gut bacteria can be disrupted by stress, exposure to harmful bacteria, and a typical western diet. Traditionally, fermented foods such as sauerkraut, cultured dairy, and kefir were a frequent part of the diet. Since these foods are rarely consumed today, many individuals can benefit from supplementing with probiotics.
Scientists theorize that harmful bacteria alter the immune system, leading to the onset of allergenic and auto-immune disorders, including asthma, celiac disease, colon cancer, type 1 and 2 diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), GI infections, diarrhea, obesity, and arthritis4.
Why Mega Proflora?
Mega Proflora contains a high dose of 100 billion live bacteria to provide robust immune support. It is most appropriate for immune-compromised individuals or those who are already suffering an illness.
Mega Proflora is designed to deliver live bacteria to the GI tract with capsules that are stable up to 104° F. Upon consumption, the gastro-resistant capsules break down slowly to ensure a targeted release of friendly bacteria in the intestines.
Who Could Benefit?
Mega Proflora can be used by most populations, including children, older adults, people with underlying health conditions, or individuals with a compromised immune system1, 2, 3. Individuals who are taking medication, are pregnant, or nursing should consult with their doctor prior to use.
