A Complete Probiotic for Healthy Digestion and MORE! Healthy gut microflora—friendly intestinal bacteria that live in the digestive tract—are crucial in the maintenance of proper digestion and immune system stimulation. The digestive tract, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines, is one of the largest sections of our immune system. Complete Probiotic Multi Strain, 5 billion active cells from webber naturals® contains 5 Multi Strains found uniquely in our digestive tract. These strains help to maintain healthy bacterial balance for healthy digestion. Friendly intestinal bacteria are known as probiotic, meaning literally “for life”. Sufficient populations of probiotics can prevent intestinal infections and disturbances such as antibiotic-associated diarrhea, traveler’s diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, and inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease [4]. Complete Probiotic Multi Strain, 5 billion active cells is shelf-stable (no refrigeration required). It contains 3 Lactobacilli strains for small intestine care, and 2 Bifidobacteria strains for colon care. It is specially designed to support immunity and healthy digestion by building healthy gut microflora throughout the digestive tract. About Probiotics: Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) can be caused by an imbalance of intestinal microflora, leading to pathogen overgrowth. Supplementation of B. longum and L. acidophilus during and after antibiotic administration has shown to re-establish the balance of intestinal microflora [1,2]. In a study of 180 elderly patients with gastrointestinal and respiratory infections, it was found that supplementation of L. casei significantly reduced the infections by 20% [3]. Depletion of probiotic reserves: the composition of human intestinal flora varies with age and the concentration of health-supporting bifidobacteria begins a steady decline around the age of 50. Anyone concerned about age-related depletion of probiotic reserves, should consider a probiotic product that covers the digestive tract. References: 1. Colombel JF, Cortot A, Neut C, Romond C.
