NOW Gr8-Dophilus is a combination of 8 different species of friendly bacteria formulated to support gastrointestinal health and immune system function. FOS is also included in the product to assist healthy growth of Acidophilus and Bifidus organisms. Because this capsule is enteric coated, NOW Gr8-Dophilus delivers its microflora directly to the intestine, by passing the harsh acidic conditions of the stomach.
The probiotic strains in this product have been identity-verified using DNA-fingerprinting technology.
