Probiotic & Gut Health Product Finder

NOW^® Women’s Probiotic has been specially formulated using three clinically tested probiotic strains to support women’s health through every stage of life.* This product features L. rhamnosus HN001 and L. acidophilus La-14 which have been shown to colonize the vaginal tract and help to maintain healthy vaginal pH when taken orally.* Both the B. lactis HN019 and HN001 strains may help to support healthy immune system function in pregnant and nursing women.* HN019 also supports GI regularity and reduces occasional gas and bloating.* These specialized strains also support healthy, balanced immune system function in women of all ages.*

Cranberry flavonoids include anthocyanins, the pigments that give cranberries their rich red color, as well as flavonols and proanthocyanidins.* D-Mannose is a simple sugar that occurs naturally in some plants. Although small amounts of D-Mannose are metabolized by the human body, most of it is rapidly excreted in the urine. Similar to proanthocyanins, it exerts an anti-adhesion effect in the urinary tract that allows waste products to be flushed out in the urine. Because insubstantial amounts of D-Mannose are used by the body, it does not interfere with healthy blood sugar regulation. This anti-adherence formula also contains probiotic bacteria that help to maintain healthy microbial balance.*

It has been found that as we age the number of healthy organisms in the large intestine starts to decline, upsetting this delicate balance, which influences both immune function and digestive health.* This product utilizes bacterial strains known to colonize the human GI tract and features Bifidobacterium lactis HN019™.* Clinical studies have demonstrated that HN019™ supports digestive regularity and promotes normal immune system function in healthy adults over age 50.*
