Now Foods Probiotic Defense

Overview

Now Foods Probiotic Defense is a vegetarian probiotic supplement built around a blend of 13 active bacterial strains in a fermented whole food base. Each capsule is designed to provide 1 billion organisms and is formulated to support gastrointestinal health, help maintain a positive probiotic balance, and assist immune system function.

The formula also includes FOS, or fructo-oligosaccharide, which is added to help support the growth of Acidophilus and Bifidus organisms. The probiotic strains are identity-verified with DNA fingerprinting technology, and the product is presented as a kosher, non-GMO, strain-verified dietary supplement.

As a capsule-based probiotic, this product combines multiple strains with a whole food foundation rather than relying on a single-organism formula. NOW also identifies it as vegetarian/vegan and GMP quality assured.
