Highlights
- Live Active Probiotics
- 5 Strains
- Survives Stomach Acid
IBS Urgency delivers 10 billion colony-forming units of five probiotic strains representing critical components of the diverse community of microbes which populate healthy, well-balanced intestines. These probiotic strains of the Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli genera are necessary for optimal intestinal function. IBS Urgency also helps reestablish a healthy intestinal flora after the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics.
The 180 mg of colostrum amplifies the benefits of IBS Urgency, as it promotes the growth of B. infantis; this beneficial strain is the first probiotic to inhabit the infant’s intestinal tract and is considered by many as the single most important beneficial bacteria within human intestines.
Probiotics face two significant challenges: temperature and stomach acid, both of which can diminish their effectiveness or even kill them. At New Roots Herbal, we prioritize strains that have been studied and proven beneficial to your health, regardless of their sensitivity to heat or stomach acid. And then we address these challenges head-on to ensure potency and efficacy, so you get the best possible benefits.
Temperature: We ensure the viability and potency of our probiotic strains by testing them in an ISO 17025–accredited laboratory to ensure they are healthy to begin with. We maintain freshness and potency by refrigerating our probiotics throughout the entire manufacturing process and supply chain. This ensures that all probiotic strains, including the more robust ones, remain potent and viable.
Gastric Acid: Our innovative, all-natural GPS™ enteric-coated capsules provide a crucial protective barrier, shielding the probiotics from the deadly environment of stomach acid. GPS™ enteric-coated capsules are laboratory-tested using USP-approved disintegration testing, and proven to survive gastric acid. This protective measure is essential for maintaining the viability of the probiotics until they reach the intestines, where they get safely released and can effectively exert their therapeutic effects.
At New Roots Herbal, we do everything possible to ensure 100% potency and viability of our probiotics, to guarantee our label claims, until the day of expiration.
