Probiotic Support Formula 60 capsules
$47


New Beginnings Nutritionals Probiotic Support Formula offers a new formula of high potency (20 billion cfu) blend of beneficial bacteria plus Saccharoymyces Boularii (2 Billion cfu), a beneficial yeast that helps maintain proper intestinal flora. This new and improved version now offers 3 times the potency per capsule compared to the previous formula. Replenishing the beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract with multiple strains of good bacteria is essential for fighting overgrowths of yeast, pathogenic bacteria, and promoting proper intestinal function. Rotating multiple brands and combinations of probiotics can be helpful to ensure long-term success in establishing healthy intestinal mucosa.










Saccharomyces Boulardii 50 capsules
$20


Saccaromyces Boulardii is a beneficial and non-colonizing yeast (not related to the Candida species) that can be helpful in supporting the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract. Research studies have indicated that Saccharomyces boulardii may work by modulating the body’s immune response, thus helping to improve the resistance to harmful bacteria. S. Bouldardii can be effectively taken with other probiotic strains but should not be taken within 2 hours of a prescription or natural anti-fungal, such as Nystatin, Diflucan, grapefruit seed extract, oregano oil, etc.

Formulated with 25+ billion CFUs per capsule, Ther-Biotic™ Complete uses our proprietary InTactic™ technology to ensure maximum delivery of live microorganisms throughout the intestinal tract.








VSL#3 60 Capsules
$48


VSL#3® is a high-potency probiotic with the highest available concentration of beneficial live bacteria. Each two capsules contain 225 billion live lactic acid bacteria, which collectively act as a Living Shield™ in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It contains 8 different strains of beneficial bacteria that were specially selected to produce an optimal composition of beneficial bacteria.


VSL#3® works by colonizing the GI tract with optimal quantities and types of probiotic (“good”) bacteria. These bacteria adhere to the walls of the GI tract and form a barrier that protects the inner layer of the gut from pathogenic (“bad”) bacteria and other toxic substances that can cause inflammation by modulating intestinal defense mechanisms. In addition, VSL#3® modulates a variety of substances that are involved in the healing of inflammation. For example, VSL#3® has been shown to induce the production of interleukin-10, an important “chemical messenger” that suppresses inflammation.

Evidence suggests that VSL#3® reduces intestinal permeability by tightening up the junctions between the cells in the outer layer of the intestine (the epithelium).

  1. What a great site! Your descriptions are very thorough and helpful. We have several family members who are sensitive to milk products and need the calcium products. I never knew there were such palatable supplements available for kids.
