Bifidobacteria is often the dominant bacteria in the lower intestine; they lower the pH of the colon, inhibit pathogens, and help restore healthy intestinal flora. Numerous factors can upset the delicate balance of these microorganisms, allowing pathogens to thrive. Such factors include stress, poor diet, antibiotics, travelling, and age-related decline. Natural Factors Travel Biotic provides 10 billion active cells of Bifidobacteria longum BB536, the most researched and effective strain of probiotics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe golden child of probiotics, B. longum BB536 is supported by over 50 human clinical studies. Research shows that B. longum may prevent antibiotic-induced diarrhea, promote healthy cholesterol levels, relieve symptoms of lactose intolerance, and stimulate immune function. Travel Biotic is specially formulated with a patented technology to resist breakdown in the stomach’s acidic conditions. Instead it dissolves in the non-acidic conditions of the intestine to yield maximum benefits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTravel Biotic BB536 is a proprietary strain with a shelf life remarkably longer and more stable than other probiotic supplements.
