    Bifidobacterium longum—supports liver function, reduces inflammation, removes lead and heavy metals.24
    Bifidobacterium breve—helps colonize healthy gut community and crowd out bad bacteria.25
    Bifidobacterium infantis—alleviates IBS symptoms, diarrhea, and constipation.26
    Lactobacillus casei—supports immunity, inhibits H. pylori, and helps fight infections.27
    Lactobacillus acidophilus—relieves gas and bloating, improves lactose intolerance. Shown to reduce E. coli by 61 percent, lower cholesterol levels,28 and create vitamin K. Also important in GALT immune strength.
    Lactobacillus bulgaricus—a powerful probiotic strain that has been shown to fight harmful bacteria that invade your digestive system and is stable enough to withstand the acidic digestive juices of the stomach. It also neutralizes toxins and naturally produces its own antibiotics.
