Probiotics: Critical For Good Health. Probiotics ("Pro"=Positive, "Biotic"=Life) are living microflora that play a critical role in maintaining good health. Present in many live foods but destroyed by heat processing, live probiotic cultures populate the intestinal tract where they play a positive role in digestive and immune health.
Broad Spectrum Protection Primal Defense® ULTRA is the ultimate broad-spectrum probiotic formula, made to provide 15 billion live cells per daily amount and 13 species of beneficial cultures including soil-based probiotics called Homeostatic™ Soil Organisms (HSOs). HSOs play a positive role in digestive health by supporting a healthy lactic acid bacteria count and healthy pH levels in the gut. The key probiotics in Primal Defense® ULTRA can thrive in the toughest digestive environments and are undeterred by stomach and bile acids. Probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii nourishes and supports healthy intestinal epithelium lining integrity, the front line for the body's defense system, and promotes healthy intestinal comfort and function. A unique blend of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium probiotics promotes regular bowel function and supports immune health.
Garden of Life's mission is to empower extraordinary health. To fulfill that mission, they formulate natural and effective whole food products that promote good health.
BioProtect™ System: Superior Product Protection They developed the proprietary BioProtect™ System to protect the delicate bioactive ingredients in their products from the damaging effects of elements in the environment. This system utilizes an impermeable amber glass bottle that safeguards against the penetration of oxygen, moisture and light. The bottles are nitrogen flushed to displace any reactive components contained in the air (oxygen, moisture, carbon-dioxide), preventing harmful oxidation of the ingredients. The BioProtect™ System preserves the integrity and effectiveness of their ULTRA formulations.
UltraZorbe™ Capsules: Advanced Delivery System UltraZorbe™ capsules are an advanced delivery system providing rapid nutrient release through faster and more complete dissolution than other vegetarian capsules. Made from 100% vegetarian material, UltraZorbe capsules are free from all chemical solvents, animal by-products and colorants found in other delivery forms. Scientific research suggests UltraZorbe capsules dissolve in the stomach, releasing the content of the capsule to support optimal nutrient absorption.
