Ingredients (1,192 mg per serving)

Bifidobacterium lactis B420® (10 billion CFU per serving)

Bifidobacterium lactis B420® is a strain of probiotic bacteria that reduces the production of toxic compounds that are produced by harmful intestinal bacteria and can cause inflammation throughout the body.[9]

Bifidobacterium lactis B420® also boosts levels of healthful bacteria in the digestive tract as well as concentrations of a protein called GLP-1 that influences the release of insulin from the pancreas (and thus glucose control) and other hormones that impact appetite.[10][11]

Research shows supplementation with Bifidobacterium lactis B420® . . .

  • Decreases intestinal inflammation[12]
  • Reduces food intake and promotes fat loss (particularly in the stomach region) and weight maintenance through mechanisms not fully understood yet, but possibly related to improvements in the function of the gut barrier[13]
  • May improve the function of the gut barrier, which controls the absorption of nutrients, electrolytes, and water, as well as the containment and elimination of toxins and pathogens[14][15][16]

The clinically effective dose of Bifidobacterium lactis B420® is 10 billion CFU.

Bacillus subtilis DE111® (5 billion CFU per serving)

Bacillus subtilis DE111® is a strain of probiotic bacteria that increases the production of white blood cells in response to inflammation, positively influences hormones related to satiety (fullness), and boosts levels of healthy bacteria in the digestive tract.[17][18][19]

Research shows supplementation with Bacillus subtilis DE111® . . .

  • Increases the body’s ability to fight off infections[20]
  • Reduces whole-body inflammation levels[21]
  • Improves cholesterol levels and blood vessel function[22]
  • May promote fat loss through mechanisms not fully understood yet, but possibly related to improvements in the function of the gut barrier[23]

The clinically effective dose of Bacillus subtilis DE111® is 5 billion CFU.

Lactobacillus plantarum 299v® (10 billion CFU per serving)

Lactobacillus plantarum 299v® is a strain of probiotic bacteria that improves the function of the gut barrier, which controls the absorption of nutrients, electrolytes, and water, as well as the containment and elimination of toxins and pathogens.[24]

Lactobacillus plantarum 299v® also reduces the levels of “bad” bacteria in the digestive system and enhances the production of short-chain fatty acids, which nourish intestinal cells.[25]

Research shows supplementation with Lactobacillus plantarum 299v® . . .

  • Reduces abdominal pain, cramping, bloating, and flatulence[26][27]
  • Improves symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)[28][29]
  • Improves the body’s ability to absorb iron[30]

The clinically effective dose of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v® is 10 billion CFU.

PreticX® Xylooligosaccharide (1,000 mg per serving)

A prebiotic is a form of non-digestible fiber that serves as food for beneficial gut bacteria, helping them grow faster and replace the “bad” bacteria in your digestive system. A xylooligosaccharide is a form of prebiotic that’s naturally found in fruit, vegetables, milk, and honey.

We chose PreticX® xylooligosaccharide specifically because studies show that it’s effective at lower doses than most other prebiotics.[31]

Research shows supplementation with PreticX® xylooligosaccharide . . .

  • Increases levels of healthy intestinal bacteria[32]
  • Reduces the growth of gut bacteria that cause inflammation and are associated with an increased risk of type-2 diabetes[33]

The clinically effective dose of PreticX® xylooligosaccharide is 1,000 milligrams.

No Artificial Food Dyes or Other Chemical Junk

As with artificial sweeteners, studies show that artificial food dyes may cause negative effects in some people, including gastrointestinal toxicity and behavioral disorders.[34][35][36][37][38]

That’s why we use natural coloring derived from fruits and other foods, as well as natural flavoring.

No Artificial Food Dyes or Other Chemical Junk
