Product Notes:
Probiotics can help enhance gastrointestinal functions (including digestion and optimal absorption of nutrients), support the immune system, prevent the development of pathogenic bacteria, and help reduce the negative side effects of antibiotics (such as diarrhea).
New Roots Herbal Probiotic Intensity & Probiotics Urgency
New Roots Herbal Probiotic Intensity takes a multi-pronged approach to cover many bases at once, including improving digestion and nutrient absorption, vitamin synthesis, immune function and resistance to disease, lactose tolerance, and regularity. It accomplishes this with over 20 billion living cells from 18 different scientifically proven species from a diversity of sources (plant, dairy, and human) selected to populate specific sites within the intestines to achieve that. These have been supplemented with inulin from chicory root, a prebiotic to foster the Bifido probiotics, and Colostrum, to further improve function as well as to help repair the gut lining.
With at least 50 billion live cells from 10 ten different clinically proven and mutually complementary cultures per capsule (and 100 billion colony-forming units per daily dose) New Roots Herbal Probiotics Urgency is one of the most potent probiotics available in the Canadian market for addressing constipation, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or to do a total reboot of your intestinal flora following a course of antibiotic use.
Both these types feature PH5D: a special type of vegetable capsule with a water-based enteric-coating made entirely from natural ingredients to protect the contents from stomach acids so they can deliver the entire payload of active whole cells to the intestines alive and healthy, so they retain all of their rated potency. New Roots now calls these GPS™ capsules - an acronym for "Gastric Protective System."
New Roots Herbal Ultra Max
New Roots Herbal Ultra Max is a powdered form designed with at least 36 billion active cells per servings and contains 11 different strains of beneficial bacteria, or probiotics, that deliver beneficial results to various parts of the intestinal tract.
Lactobacillus strains of probiotics specifically target the small intestine, while the Bifidobacterium strains concentrate their action on the colon. Ultra Max also contains inulin prebiotics that serve as a natural food source for probiotics and help increase their reproduction in the colon.
This power-packed probiotic powder is non-GMO and is well-tolerated by those with a sensitivity to lactose (with just 6 micrograms of lactose per gram).
- Naming Note: A previous version of this product was known as New Roots Ultra Max 25 Billion.
