Suggested Use Source of probiotics providing live microorganisms that temporarily modify gut flora. Recommended dose Recommended adult dose: 1 capsule 1–3 times daily or as directed by a health care practitioner. Take at least 2–3 hours before or after antibiotics. Feature Summary Supplemental bacteria are called probiotics, meaning “for life” or “in support of life”, because they are the natural guardians of robust intestinal health and vitality. Friendly or probiotic bacteria toil 24 hours a day, holding at bay and dominating the many pathogenic bacteria, viruses, yeast, and other microorganisms that unavoidably inhabit the intestinal tract. Given opportunity, the pathogens succeed in colonizing by adhering to the intestinal tract, inflicting disruptions to our intestinal health and throughout the whole body. Beneficial bacteria also have a profound effect on the immune system, boosting immunity to combat allergies, flu, and the common cold.The human intestinal tract contains trillions of bacteria in a natural but delicate state of balance between the beneficial bacteria and their good effects, and the pathogenic microorganisms and their potentially adverse effects. Under conditions of high stress or prolonged stress, antibiotic therapy, vacation or business travel, and encounters with food or water-borne pathogens, this natural protective balance can be disrupted, resulting in a decline in the number of beneficial or probiotic bacteria.Natural Factors Double Strength Acidophilus &Bifidus contains three strains of probiotics to assist with the maintenance of normal intestinal health: Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Bifidobacterium bifidum. The capsules contain goat milk powder to provide an excellent environment to grow lactic bacteria.

This positions it as a critical digestive agent for both animal- and plant-based fats as well as certain nutrients. At New Roots Herbal, we pride ourselves in using only the purest, highest-quality raw materials available as well as employing the strictest quality controls. All our products are verified by our ISO 17025–accredited laboratory, throughout the product process and before releasing the product for consumption.

MSPrebiotic MSPrebiotic Powde... $49.99
MSPrebiotic Powder [ TIME TO FEEL BETTER ] Using MSPrebiotic Supplement is a great way to improve the health of your digestive system. Are you looking for a simple solution for better gut health & low energy levels? Then a prebiotic is what you need! Add a prebiotic into your diet & you will gain positive health changes. A healthy gut contributes to More Energy. Start using MSPrebiotic today to feel better physically & mentally! [ PREBIOTICS FEED PROBIOTICS ] MSPrebiotic acts as superfood for the healthy bacteria in your gut. The healthy bacteria then goes on to produce ‘post-biotics’ (or beneficial compounds) that provide a huge impact on making your gut healthier. Post-biotics provide our gut wall the energy it needs to stay healthy. Defend against bad bacteria or immune-activating compounds [ NO MORE PILL FATIGUE ] Say goodbye to large prebiotic & probiotic fiber capsules & pills that are hard to swallow and don't even have a sufficient amount of prebiotic compound in them to benefit your digestive system. With our MSPrebiotic powder you will be able to enjoy the proper required amount of prebiotics in one little scoop that can be added to almost anything. You would need to take around 15 large Prebiotic pills to get the same benefit one scoop of our MSPrebiotic powder provides. [DIGESTION RESISTANT STARCH] A simple ingredient that is now the unsuspecting king of digestive supplements. Resistant Starch is an extremely important ingredient in a healthy diet. It is not being found in today's foods due to the pressurizing and heating up of the resistance starch. This eliminates all it's benefits of cleaning out your gut and giving you energy. MSPrebiotic is Approved as a Natural Health Product by Health Canada and is Fodmap friendly. Made with Natural Food Grade Potatoes. [ KEY TO THE GUT-BRAIN CONNECTION & DIGESTIVE HEALTH ] When healthy detox bacteria in your gut are fed with prebiotics, they make many different compounds of microbes that affect your brain in a positive way. Serotonin, which contributes to feelings of happiness is largely produced by these healthy microbes found in your gut. Ingredient:   Solnul™ (Solanum Tuberosum Extract) MSPrebiotic® is the world's best supplement grade unmodified resistant starch from potatoes. This patented natural prebiotic comes from gently dried, peeled potatoes and is grown, processed and packaged in Canada. FAQ What is MSPrebiotic? MSPrebiotic delivers the highest concentration of prebiotic resistant starch and is the only supplement-grade source available on the market. This patented natural prebiotic comes from gently dried, peeled potatoes, labeled as dietary fiber and is grown, processed and packaged in Canada. MSPrebiotic is supported by over a decade of clinical research demonstrating increases in endogenous healthy bacteria, increases in butyrate, and other improvements. Why is it important to supplement with Resistant Starch? Historically, resistant starch (RS) was the most widely consumed prebiotic and played an important role in shaping the microbiome. But healthy modern diets delivery only a tiny fraction of the RS levels consumed by our ancestors. MSPrebiotic contains the highest levels of RS available, allowing for easy and effective dietary supplementation. How do I add MSPrebiotic to my diet? MSPrebiotic is insoluble in liquids, and must be stirred into beverages and then ingested immediately before the prebiotic settles to the bottom of the glass. For example, a single 10g scoop can be mixed into 80mL of water. After consuming, we recommend that you drink an additional 40mL (or more) of water for optimal results. MSPrebiotic can also be added to smoothies, shakes, or yogurt – the choice is up to you! However, MSPrebiotic loses effectiveness when heated over 60°C (140°F), so it is not suitable for cooking, baking, or consumption in hot beverages. How does MSPrebiotic supply me with energy?This is an example question? This is an exampMSPrebiotic differs from most energy supplements because it is not converted to glucose after you consume it. Instead, MSPrebiotic passes through your digestive tract to the colon, where healthy bacteria slowly ferment the supplement to generate short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs are a natural energy source and are absorbed into your blood stream to supply energy to the rest of your body. Importantly, SCFAs are produced slowly, gradually entering the body to provide a constant supply of energy – all without impacting your blood sugar.le question? What is Resistant Starch? Most types of starch are digested and broken down by the body, providing a source of glucose. Resistant starch is different because it resists digestion in our stomach and small intestine, and becomes food for the healthy bacteria (probiotics) living in the colon. For these reasons, resistant starch is a prebiotic and confers numerous health benefits by supporting the growth of healthy bacteria.

This comprehensive formula also features 300 mg of CranRich® cranberry 36:1 concentrate, to support intestinal, vaginal, and urinary tract health, helping to prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Natural bacterial balance can be upset by antibiotics, diet, stress, water and food quality, and sexual activity, which can increase the presence of pathogenic organisms that cause urinary tract infections and other genito- urinary issues. A daily probiotic helps restore and maintain a harmonious balance of beneficial bacteria to support overall well-being. The 10 probiotic strains in Natural Factors Women’s Multi Probiotic are derived from human, plant, and dairy sources. Each strain is selected for its ability to inhibit pathogens that commonly cause UTIs from sticking to the walls of the intestinal, vaginal, and urinary tract. Cranberry extract also inhibits bacterial adherence, which reduces the likelihood of recurrent UTIs.

Sloth MD Sloth MD Artichok... $39.99
Sloth MD ARTICHOKE Full Globe 60 veg capsules Natural relief for digestive upset Increase bile flow: choleretic Overall positive metabolic effect (balancing cholesterol, blood sugar) Protects liver ALLERGEN FREE: NO GLUTEN, NO DAIRY, NO LACTOSE, NO GMO’S & NO PESTICIDES VEGETERIAN capsule contains 500mg of  Artichoke Description Artichoke (Cynara scolymus) leaf extract was one of the few herbal remedies which the clinical and experimental trials have complemented each other. C. scolymus exibits  CHOLERETIC properties – increases the bile secretion, inhibits of inflammation and ROS, improves liver function, gut microbiota, enhances lipolysis and lipid metabolism, and reduces blood glucose in preclinical and clinical studies. The artichoke leaves contain a number of phenolic acids, flavonoids (rutin, luteolin), cynarin and sesquiterpenes (especially caryophyllene and beta-selinene). It also contains tannins, sugar substances, inulin, mucus substances, phytosterols (taraxasterol), essential oil, provitamin A and several enzymes. The efficacy on indigestion has been well documeted. Due to choleretic activity, by modulating bile synthesis artichoke  is widely used recommended for the treatment of indigestion or dyspepsia, especially when the cause may be attributed to slow bile ducts push or disorder in the assimilation of fat. The efficacious hypolipidemia effect (effects on high choletserol), published in many studies, is due to cynarin and luteolin components in synergy with flavonoids,  that play a crucial role in inhibiting cholesterol and triglycerides synthesis by modulation of HMG-CoA reductase activity, rather than a true inhibiton as exibited  with statin medictaions.  Additional mechanism is trought  increasing the cholesterol fecal excretion due to effects on bile acids productio.  High LDL levels,together with high cholesterol and triglycerides levels,are a risk factor for various degenerative vasculardiseases, and in particular for arteriosclerosis. Artcihoke is shown to modify cholesterol levels, incluidng total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL cholesterole and LDL/HDL ration, without affecting HDL levels. Hepatoprotective effect of Cynara extract is reported with reducing the cholesterol biosynthesis and the oxidation of LDL. Artichoke has been found to decrease the production of reactive oxygen species, the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins, lipid peroxidation, and protein oxidation and increase the activity of glutathione peroxidase, therefore protects the liver cells. Current studies suggested that extracts from leaves of cynara scolymus has been discovered to help with metabolic disorders (hyperglycemia, inflammatory disorders and abnormal lipid profiles). Researches have shown lowering in postprandial hypoglycemia and overall improvement in fasting blood sugar with Artichoke consumption. The proposed mechanisms were: by affecting glucose absorption and as an antioxidant it delays depletion of stomach and bowels which inhibited alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase enzymes in bowels and blocked glucose transportation to blood. On the other hand antioxidants have insulin-like effect and increase glucose absorption in peripheral tissue. Another probable mechanism is influencing beta-cells, repairing damage cells, and stimulating these cells to secrete insulin. DIRECTIONS Adults – Take 1 capsule 3 times a day with meals. INDICATIONS Used to help relieve digestive upset and to help increase bile flow. WARNINGS If hypersensitivity/allergy occurs stop using this product.Do not use if you have a bile duct obstruction. If you are pregnant or have gallstones, consult with the health practitioner before use.
