SEEKING HEALTH ProBiota 12 (Probiotic) 60 Vegetarian Capsules

ProBiota 12 capsules of Seeking Health provides 25 billion CFUs of beneficial microorganisms per serving to support a healthy digestive system. This synergistic mix of 12 probiotic species, including both Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains, can help re-populate beneficial intestinal microflora while supporting a healthy immune system and digestive process. This supplement contains a prebiotic base that provides nutrition to beneficial bacteria and uses a proprietary polysaccharide complex to help protect living organisms as they pass through the upper digestive tract.


It is believed that probiotic preparations combining many species, such as ProBiota 12, provide more comprehensive support for the complex human intestinal microbiome than single species products. Each species occupies a specific 'niche', with some preferring conditions in the small intestine, while others may develop in the colon, urogenital tract, or elsewhere in the body. While some probiotic species are known to colonize the human digestive tract, others are transient or occur in the intestines only when consumed regularly as part of the diet. ProBiota 12 includes both colonizing and transient strains, including Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, which are thought to contribute to some of the health-promoting properties of cultured yogurt.


It is sometimes said that immune health begins in the intestines. Special tissues in the intestine make up over 60% of the body's overall immune support. 12 species of probiotics in ProBiota 12 produce lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide and other fermentation products that can help the body naturally defend against harmful bacteria, yeast and viruses. These probiotic species can also support the immune system by competing with unwanted or harmful bacteria for nutrients and colonization space. They also produce short chain fatty acids (acetate, propionate and butyrate), which help ensure cell nutrition in the colon.
