Probiotic IMM

Suggested Use: 1-2 capsules per day, with or between meals. This formula does not require refrigeration.

Probiotic IMM - Probiotic IMM is a shelf stable probiotic, designed for supporting the nasal and throat tissue. Probiotic IMM offers 5 billion CFU per serving of the beneficial bacteria Bifidobacterium longum BB536, Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum. When taken regularly, studies show that these strains help maintain healthy cytokine production, protein cell messengers that also play a role in inflammation control through out the body. The strains found in Probiotic IMM also provide support for Ig-E, or immunoglobulin E. Ig-E are the antibodies found on mucous membrane tissue, and are often the first responder to foreign invaders, signally the immune system to protect. Taking Probiotic IMM may help with maintaining a healthy barrier and immune response in mucous linings.

A recent meta-analysis involving 9 randomized controlled trials has revealed that probiotics maintain healthy immune and nasal function. Probiotic IMM provides 5 billion CFU per serving of the beneficial bacteria Bifidobacterium longum BB536, Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum. These strains provide particular support for a healthy immune response and immunoglobulin function. B. longum BB536 is a shelf stable, top-selling probiotic in Japan, supported in the literature by over 25 human trials and 30 animal studies. Double blind, placebo-controlled trials indicate that B. longum BB536 supplementation maintains GI bacteria balance, supporting immune function and maintaining eye, nose and throat health. In another randomized double blind, placebo-controlled trial, L. acidophilus and B. lactis showed support for nasal function and maintained healthy eosinophil activity within the nasal lining. Research involving B. bifidum, L. casei and L. plantarum also suggests that these strains maintain healthy cytokine production, IgE function and mast cell integrity.
