Question 1

What is Pro-B?

Accepted Answer

Pro-B is a probiotic dietary supplement that provides two billion CFUs (colony forming units) of a unique strain of Lactobacillus.

Question 2

What ingredients does Pro-B contain?

Accepted Answer

Pro-B provides a unique strain of friendly bacteria (Lactobacillus fermentum PCC) shown to be resistant to an acidic environment and can effectively colonize in the lower digestive tract. Each Pro-B capsule is guaranteed to contain a minimum of two billion CFUs (colony forming units) of the strain L. fermentum PCC at the end of shelf life.

Question 3

Are there scientific studies validating Pro-B?

Accepted Answer

The primary goal of probiotic therapy is to help establish the natural balance of intestinal microflora in order to have an optimally functioning digestive defense system; this effect is well established in independently published research. The health benefits of L. fermentum PCC are supported by 12 clinical studies and 16 animal and in vitro studies.

Question 4

How does Pro-B work?

Accepted Answer

Pro-B has been clinically proven to encourage the proliferation of healthy probiotic bacteria in the lower digestive tract, thus helping to fortify the natural digestive defense system. By actively colonizing the lower digestive tract, Pro-B may be able to discourage the development of undesirable microorganisms.

Question 5

Why is ProBio PCC unique?

Accepted Answer

ProBio PCC has been developed through scientific and analytical methods to ensure the product meets label claims for live cultures (CFUs) at the end of shelf life, a more valid indicator of efficacy than claiming number of live cultures at manufacturing. Pharmanex’s unique strain of Lactobacillus was isolated from a Swedish woman who showed an extraordinary resilience to undesirable organisms. This unique strain of Lactobacillus called Lactobacillus fermentum has the ability to survive passage through the harsh environment of the stomach and has the ability to colonize in the intestine. In developing Pro B Nu Skin, Pharmanex has followed the probiotic guidelines as established by the FAO/WHO expert consultation for pH survival, colonization, identity, and dosing.

Question 6

Is Pro-B safe?

Accepted Answer

Pro-B is safe and well tolerated at the recommended dosage. Lactobacilli have a long history of use as probiotics without established risk to humans, which remains the best proof of safety. If you are pregnant or lactating, or taking a prescription medication, consult a physician prior to use. There are no known side effects at the recommended dosage.
