Quality Probiotics Suppliments
------------------------------
Please note that you may experience more cleansing symptoms when
using a high quality probiotic suppliment. This is due to the
fact that the beneficial bacteria and the supernatant are killing
off pathenogenic bacteria and fungus. When that happens,
xenobiotics (organic toxins) are release which can cause these
reactions. For most people these reactions should subside after
a week.
a. Natren, Inc.
10935 Camarillo Street
North Hollywood, CA 91602
(800) 992-3323 or (800) 992-9393
Nutri (Imports & Exports) Ltd.
Buxton Road, New Mills
Stockport, Cheshire
SK12 3JU
0663-742753
Natren products are not centrifuged or ultra-filtrated. The
probiotic organisms are therefore still bound with the
supernatant medium which strengthen the product's ability to
1) survive stomach acids, and 2) inhibit disease-causing
bacteria. The products have no yeasts, MSG, additives, fillers,
or any other unnatural products added.
The company is owned by Natasha Trenev, coauthor of the
"Probiotics" book. A lot of care was put into the strain
selection for their product line. I strongly recommend
Natren probiotics products.
Products include:
*Bio-Nate acidophilus (NAS Strain)
*Bifido-Nate B. bifidum (Malyoth Strain)
*Digesta-Lac (LB-51 strain of L. Bulgaricus)
Megadophilus
Bifido Factor/Life Start Two
Life Start
D.F.A. Vegetarian Formula
*Products I recommend for probiotics program (see below).
b. BioCare Limited UK
54 Northfield Road
Kings Norton
Birmingham, B30 1JH
United Kingdom
021 433-3727 (country code from U.S. is 44)
Products include:
Vegidophilus (INT-9 L. acidophilus and B. bifidum)
*INT-9 L. acidophilus (with fructooligosaccharides)
*B. bifidum
B. infantis (for infants)
*L. bulgaricus
*Products I recommend for probiotics program (see below).
An excellant line of products which I highly recommend. These
products are made by practitioners and it is obvious that they
have taken great pains to use the best strains and best
processing techniques available. They have a vegan product
for those of you who are vegetarian. They sell mail order to
the U.S.
c. Other Products
--------------
Most other probiotics products on the market have one or
more of the following characteristics:
i. Centrifuged which artificially raises the level of
"viable" organisms but damages the product.
ii. Mixture of several competing strains which often leads
to the destruction of acidophilus strain even in
free-dried products.
iii. Added fillers and additives which do not appear on the
label.
iv. Poor strain selection. This is crucial for bacteria
adhesion.
v. Improper storage.
