Maximize Your Probiotics!
For many possible reasons during your care and treatment, your Excell provider may recommend a more intensive probiotic protocol to maximize and replace your good bacteria. Probiotics serve many important functions in our body including immune function, GI health, inflammation, controlling bad yeasts, weight control, mood stabilization and more! When you are on antibiotics it is especially important to maximize your probiotics.
This is Dr. Lisa’s Basic Maximized Probiotic Regimen:
Ortho Biotic from Ortho Molecular 1-2 nightly
Sachromyces Boularrdi from OrthoMolecular 1 nightly
PrescriptAssist Pro from Researched Nutritionals 1-2 nightly
Alternate weekly or monthly… either Metagenics Ultra Flora Balance OR Ultra Flora Intensive Care 1 nightly
TIP: It is better to take your probiotics on an empty stomach and best with a prebiotic (good food for the probiotics to take hold) like 1/2 of a banana, but not a full meal.
For even more power and gut coverage:
Increase the above probiotics to twice daily (so taken at lunch and bedtime), along with Ortho Biotic and Prescript Assist Pro to TWO twice daily.
CAUTION: Not all probiotics are created equal!!
Many factors affect the quality of probiotics including:
Probiotics can be misleadingly labeled, claiming more live units than are actually in the capsule.
Probiotics may only have one or two strains of good bacteria, limiting their effectiveness.
Probiotics may not contain enough live units to make an impact.
Probiotics must be processed, shipped and stored properly to ensure the live units don’t die before reaching your gut.
Probiotics must be pH resistant and targeted to reach your digestive tract.
The probiotics we recommend at Excell for Life are the highest quality and meet all of the many requirements that make a great probiotic. They are high dose, contain many varieties of good bacteria for complete coverage, are specially processed and pH resistant and targeted to get to your digestive tract where it belongs. We do NOT recommend that you buy other probiotics online or in stores, as we cannot feel confident that you are not wasting your money.
