Supplemental bacteria are called probiotics, meaning “for life” or “in support of life”, because they are the natural guardians of robust intestinal health and vitality. Friendly or probiotic bacteria toil 24 hours a day, holding at bay and dominating the many pathogenic bacteria, viruses, yeast, and other microorganisms that unavoidably inhabit the intestinal tract. Given opportunity, the pathogens succeed in colonizing by adhering to the intestinal tract, inflicting disruptions to our intestinal health and throughout the whole body. Beneficial bacteria also have a profound effect on the immune system, boosting immunity to combat allergies, flu, and the common cold.

Natural Factors Mega Probiotic Powder contains four strains of probiotics to assist with the maintenance of normal intestinal health. The powder is guaranteed to contain 12 billion active cells per serving along with fructooligosaccharides (FOS) to specifically assist in re-establishing and maintaining normal intestinal microflora.
