More probiotics isn’t always better

By Mike Ventresca, Vital Choice Healthstore

By now, I’m sure you’ve heard of probiotics, the good bacteria that play a major role in immune health, digestion, mood and more. You may have also noticed how brands try to outdo each other by packing more and more bacteria into each pill, first 50 billion then 100 billion and so on.

The truth is, except in specific circumstances, there aren’t many studies that prove taking greater than 20 billion produces better results. The real key is not how many probiotics you take, but how many make it to the gut ready to improve your health. Too many companies focus on packing their capsules as opposed to ensuring the bacteria survive the trip.

Like parents packing a car for a long road trip, to keep the kids safe and happy, it’s a good idea to make sure everyone is buckled in and to pack plenty of water and snacks. The same is true for probiotics. Unlike vitamins, probiotics are living organisms. If we want them to be effective, we need to ensure we provide them with everything they need to arrive able to get to work.

No brand pays more attention to this journey than Probulin. All of their probiotic formulas use a patented delivery system that protects and nourishes the bacteria throughout the digestion process. With a wide variety of condition-specific formulas, including colon, women, and immune support. Probulin offers effective doses of clinically effective strains that work. Most people who switch to Probulin report improved results in two to four weeks.
