Lactobacillus acidophilus or L. acidophilus is naturally found in our intestines. It has been researched extensively for providing numerous gastrointestinal health benefits.

Dairy products in general can cause indigestion and in more severe cases, symptoms can include abdominal cramps, bloating, and diarrhea.

Lactobacillus salivarius or L. salivarius provides a great benefit to dental health. L. salivarius is found throughout the body, but it is particularly concentrated in the saliva, which makes it particularly different from most probiotic strains.

All probiotics help with improving digestive health, but Lactobacillus casei or L. casei in particular is one of the most extensively studied strains for its ability to regulate the digestive system.

Bifidobacterium breve or B. breve helps to support a healthy immune system. B. breve has been studied for it use in diarrhea, constipation, IBS, and for preventing the common flu and cold.

L. paracasei is able to enhance the immune system with its ability to increase the production of cytokines, which are signaling molecules that mediate and regulate immunity, inflammation and blood cell development.

There has been a lot of sensationalism surrounding the coronavirus or COVID-19. The hype has been spreading faster than the disease itself. What makes matters worst are companies trying to profit from rising fear and paranoia with pseudoscience and misinformation. We strongly recommend being cautious of any products offering anything "anti-viral."

Gassiness isn't just embarrassing, but a sign that your gut is out of balance, with a presence of too much bad bacteria. L. plantarum is able to rebalance the gut microbiome and restore order.

Bifidobacterium lactis or B. lactis is one of the most well studied strains of probiotics. It is known to have powerful effects on rebalancing the gut microbiome. This multipurpose probiotic also has immune boosting properties, can make the gut lining stronger, and help fight harmful pathogens.

When we feel anxious or nervous and can't eat or "get butterflies in the stomach" when meeting someone new, this is not just the gut microbiome but also exemplifies the strong connection between our gut and our brain.
