Want a Happy Digestive System?

Try NEW Probiotic Pearls from PhytoPharmica!

Acidophilus Pearls

Cost:  $40.00

Probiotic Pearls feature a one-of-a-kind blend of two probiotics–Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium longum–the friendly microflora you need for a healthy digestive system. These little pearl-shaped capsules are easy to swallow, and are guaranteed to survive stomach acids and pass into the intestine, where the probiotics are released intact and healthy to support your digestive system.

 

The Pearl is the Key.
Probiotic Pearls use a proprietary coating process called True Delivery Technology. This technology produces a seamless, three-layered pearl that guarantees delivery of the probiotics into the intestine where they are released intact and healthy to increase intestinal flora.

The inner layer is a paste of healthy probiotics suspended in a protective oil mixture. The second layer seals the microflora in the capsule, and protects them from air and moisture. Probiotics are anaerobic organisms and the presence of oxygen can actually injure, weaken, or kill them.

The third layer is a patented coating that protects the probiotics from the acid environment of the stomach, so they can successfully reach the intestine where they are needed. Probiotic microflora are not resistant to stomach acids, so the outermost layer of the pearl is specially developed to dissolve only in the alkaline environment of the intestines.

A scientific study showed patented Probiotic Pearls delivered up to 900% more intact microflora to the intestine in relation to label claim than 4 leading competitors, including those with enteric coatings.

Probiotic Pearls and other PhytoPharmica products are sold only at physicians' offices and pharmacies.

 
What Are Probiotics?
Probiotics–like Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacteria longum–are live food supplements that play an important role in the health of our digestive and immune systems, as well as our overall health. They help support the better utilization and bioavailability of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Probiotics have also been shown in a clinical trial to support the breakdown of lactose and the symptoms of lactose intolerance. They also help increase healthy flora in the intestines. Moreover, probiotics are non-toxic and do not cause disease.

Unfortunately, probiotics do not permanently colonize in the body. Therefore, they need to be ingested regularly for their health-promoting effects to persist. Since they are often killed or severely weakened by exposure to air while on shelf, and by stomach acids when in the body, probiotics need to be protected until they can reach the intestine, where they offer maximum benefits. That’s why Acidophilus Pearls are such a breakthrough!
