HLC High Potency Powder is a unique combination of four strains of proprietary, human-sourced probiotics and fructooligosaccharides (FOS) that helps to promote gastrointestinal health in adults.* In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving 22 adults, daily supplementation with a probiotic containing Lactobacillus acidophilus supported a healthy microflora balance.* Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, the most commonly used probiotics, help colonize the intestines and mediate the permeability of epithelial cells.* After they are fermented by microbes in the colon, prebiotics including FOS support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon and further maintain and support the barrier function of intestinal epithelial cells*. Their fermentation can result in the production of short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate, the preferred energy source of colon cells.* Provides 10 billion CFU per day of two strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Includes 600 mg of fructooligosaccharides per servingServing Size:0.33 TeaspoonServings Per Container:120Amount Per Serving% Daily ValueTotal Carbohydrate,less than1 gDietary Fiber,less than1 g2%HLC Consortium 10 billion viable cellsLactobacillus acidophilus (CUL-60)Lactobacillus acidophilus (CUL-21)Bifidobacterium bifidum (CUL-20)Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (CUL-34)Fructooligosaccharides (FOS)600 mgOther Ingredients:Apricot powder, fructose, apricot flavorRecommended intake: In a glass, add water or milk to 1/3 teaspoon (1 g) and mix.
