Probio

The digestive system is your body's first line of defense against unwanted organisms consumed with food. An important component of your digestive defense system is a variety of friendly bacteria that aid digestion and enhance your body's own digestive immune response. As we encounter challenges to our digestive system we can severely disturb the delicate balance of our body's intestinal flora which can cause occasional gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort, bowel irregularity, occasional diarrhea, and other digestive and non-digestive discomforts. Fortunately, a healthy balance of intestinal flora can be restored through the consumption of food or food supplement products that contain friendly live bacteria cultures commonly referred to as probiotics.

Pharmanex's ProBio PCC^® relieves symptoms associated with gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort, bowel irregularity, occasional diarrhea, and other digestive and non-digestive discomforts*. It contains a potent and proprietary probiotic bacteria culture of Lactobacillus fermentum. Pharmanex's unique strain of Lactobacillus has shown an extraordinary resilience to the growth of undesirable organisms in the gastrointestinal tract. Clinical research shows a decrease in common gastrointestinal problems and an increase in the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract after the introduction of this particular bacteria strain. This ability to survive passage through the harsh environment of the stomach, its ability to colonize and act as a friendly tenant, and its resilient and stable nature make ProBio PCC^® superior to other probiotic products*.

• Clinically proven to encourage the proliferation of healthy “live”
probiotic bacteria in the lower digestive tract, acting as a resilient
and stable territorial colonizer*
• Reduces symptoms commonly associated with occasional GI
discomfort and promotes digestive comfort and regularity*
• Fortifies the natural digestive defense system and assists with the
absorption of key nutrients*
• Supports healthy function of the urinary tract*

ProBio PCC™ is intended for individuals who experience occasional
gastrointestinal discomfort. Individuals who travel frequently should
benefit from this product.

What is ProBio PCC™?

ProBio PCC™ is a probiotic dietary supplement that may help relieve symptoms associated with gastrointestinal discomfort.

What ingredients does ProBio PCC™ contain?

ProBio PCC™ provides a proprietary strain of friendly bacteria (Lactobacillus fermentum PCC) shown to be resistant to an acidic environment and can effectively colonize in the lower digestive tract. Each ProBio PCC™ capsule is guaranteed to contain a minimum of two billion CFUs (colony forming units) of the proprietary strain L. Fermentum PCC at the end of shelf life. Resistant starch is also provided as a non-digestible food medium, commonly known as a “prebiotic,” to promote the growth of friendly bacteria in the digestive tract.

Are there scientific studies validating ProBio PCC™?

The primary goal of probiotic therapy is to help establish the natural balance of intestinal microflora in order to have an optimally functioning digestive defense system; this effect is well established in independently published research. The health benefits of L. fermentum PCC are supported by 12 clinical studies and 16 animal and in vitro studies.

How does ProBio PCC™ work?

ProBio PCC™ has been clinically proven to encourage the proliferation of healthy probiotic bacteria in the lower digestive tract, thus helping to fortify the natural digestive defense system. By actively colonizing the lower digestive tract, ProBio PCC™ may be able to discourage the development of undesirable microorganisms.*

Why is ProBio PCC™ unique?

ProBio PCC™ has been developed through scientific and analytical methods to ensure the product meets label claims for live cultures (CFUs) at the end of shelf life, a more valid indicator of efficacy than claiming number of live cultures at manufacturing. Pharmanex’s unique strain of Lactobacillus was isolated from a Swedish woman who showed an extraordinary resilience to undesirable organisms. This unique patent-pending strain of Lactobacillus called Lactobacillus fermentum has the ability to survive passage through the harsh environment of the stomach and has the ability to colonize in the intestine. Pharmanex has established an exclusive agreement with the supplier of L. fermentum PCC, making this unique strain proprietary to our company. This patent-pending strain of Lactobacillus bacteria has ten patents filed to date. In developing ProBio PCC,™ Pharmanex has followed the probiotic guidelines as established by the FAO/WHO expert consultation for pH survival, colonization, identity, and dosing.

Is ProBio PCC™ safe?

ProBio PCC™ is safe and well tolerated at the recommended dosage. Lactobacilli have a long history of use as probiotics without established risk to humans, which remains the best proof of safety. If you are pregnant or lactating, or taking a prescription medication, consult a physician prior to use. There are no known side effects at the recommended dosage.
