Vital-Plex Powder
-Helps rebalance GI flora with 4 hardy strains.

Vital-Plex is a long-standing favorite of Klaire clinicians in situations
where pathogens such as rotavirus invade and multiply in the bowel. It has been
reformulated to include Bifidobacterium lactis blended with Lactobacillus
acidophilus, L. rhamnosus, and B. bifidum. B. lactis is an important colonizing
microorganism that produces large amounts of anti-microbial formate. It has
profound effects on the immune system enhancing white cell tumor cell-killing
and phagocytic activities as well as increasing numbers of total, helper, and
activated T cells. It has been shown to have activity against rotavirus, a
significant cause of diarrhea in young children. It has been found to reduce
the incidence of diarrhea in child daycare centers. The probiotic species in
Vital-Plex synergistically produce butyrate, acetate, lactate, and formate,
lowering the pH of intestinal contents and inhibiting the growth of bacterial,
yeast, and viral pathogens. The Vital-Plex probiotics produce B vitamins and
enhance nutrient and mineral absorption. Together they stimulate
gastrointestinal and systemic immune system function and provide support for
people with diarrhea. This formulation is available in both a high-potency
powder supplying 10 billion CFUs per 1/4 teaspoon and a maintenance-dose
capsule supplying 5 billion CFUs.
