Swanson Ultra Probiotic for Seniors is formulated to promote regularity and replenish the beneficial bacteria that decline with age. As we grow older, our intestinal environment changes, and that can affect the balance of "good" bacteria that help keep the GI tract functioning smoothly. The right probiotic supplement keeps you feeling great inside so you can continue to do the things you love outside.
Swanson Ultra Probiotic for Seniors is specially formulated with a blend of 5 select strains of probiotics including Bifidobacterium lactis UABla-12™, a trademarked strain clinically studied for its beneficial effects on an aging intestinal microflora and immune system, and Bifidobacterium bifidum UABb-10™, one of the "first colonizers of the human gut" which supports intestinal health. Combined with L. acidophilus UALa-01™, L. casei and trademarked L. rhamnosus GG, these strains protect and support your GI system. The product packs 30 billion CFU in each two-capsule serving, along with the prebiotic nutrition of FOS to nourish the probiotics and help them thrive.
