For those with significant GI issues and or immune distress, G.I. 5 is designed to give a cost effective, high degree of support to build and balance beneficial intestinal flora. The 5 species in this formulation: Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Lactobacillus bulgaricus—work together to effectively increase colonization of the microorganisms in both the small intestine and the colon. G.I. 5 helps to reset the immune system and reducing inflammation that starts in the gut.
The GI tract is a finely balanced environment where roughly 500 different strains of bacteria compete for space and nutrients. When there is a healthy balance (eubiosis), few symptoms exist. However, dysbiosis can occur when an overabundance of potentially harmful organisms prevail. The natural microflora balance can become disrupted by medications (such as antibiotics, oral contraceptives, etc.), excessive alcohol consumption, or poor dietary intake.
Probiotics have been extensively studied and are characterized as having broad GI and immune benefits, including (1) increasing the population of healthy bacteria following microflora imbalance; (2) supporting healthy bowel function; (3) increasing the production of short-chain fatty acids, which provide energy to the cells of the intestinal lining; (4) strengthening the gut-immune barrier by promoting a healthy gut mucosa; (5) aiding in the digestion of difficult-to-breakdown compounds like lactose and casein; and (6) enhancing detoxification of harmful compounds.
G.I. 5 is a high-potency, hypoallergenic blend of five probiotic strains, G.I. 5 is designed for individuals who need a high degree of support to build and balance beneficial intestinal flora. The five strains in this formulation: Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Lactobacillus bulgaricus work together to effectively increase colonization of the microorganisms in both the small intestine and the colon. The transient and colonizing strains in this combination have high tolerance to stomach acid and bile, which is important for maintaining viability in the intestinal environment. G.I. 5 is an excellent, cost-effective option for supplementation with potent amounts of primary, broad-acting resident probiotic strains complemented by two non-resident strains that compete against less desirable bacteria and yeast.
