NF Formulas - Spectra Probiotics - 90 Capsules
- Spectra Probiotics provides eight specially selected
strains of friendly bacteria or microflora of acidophilus and bifidus.
- Each capsule contains billions of friendly bacteria or probiotics in a unique protein matrix coating which
protects each of the individual bacteria from harsh stomach acids and digestive juices.
- The coating of Spectraprobiotics caplets also makes refrigeration unnecessary (although still
recommended for optimal shelf life).
- Independent laboratory tests confirm a high level of
viability of the friendly bacteria probiotics without refrigeration.
In a base of NAG and Fructooligosaccharides.
The formulation is not absolutely dairy free. This is because the source of the dairy is the probiotic blend – the probiotic bacteria are grown on a non-fat milk medium. When the probiotics are harvested, the milk proteins are removed and the bacteria are isolated. Therefore, we had not labeled the media on previous label versions. However, the new allergen labeling regulations require that we label all top 8 allergens used in the processing of the product – even when they are not present in the final product.
Lactobacilli:
Lactobacilli probiotics are Gram-positive, non-spore forming rods
(coccobacilli). They have complex nutritional requirements
and are fermentative and anaerobic. They are found in a
variety of habitats where rich, carbohydrate-containing
substrates are available; such as human and animal mucosal
membranes, on plants or material of plant origin, sewage
and fermenting food.
Bifidobacteria:
Bifidobacteria probiotics makes up a major part of the normal intestinal
friendly microflora in humans throughout life. They appear in the
stools a few days after birth and increase in number thereafter.
The number of bifidobacteria friendly probiotics in the colon of adults is
108 - 1011 CFU/gram, but this number decreases with age.
Demographic differences have been found to affect the number
and species of bifidobacteria probiotics. Bifidobacteria friendly probiotics are nonmotile,
nonsporulating Gram-positive rods with varying appearance.
Most strains are strictly anaerobic. B. longum probiotic may be considered
as the most common species of bifidobacteria. They are found
both in infant and adult feces.
FOS (Fructooligosaccarides)
Fructooligosaccarides (FOS) are a class of
carbohydrates known as probiotics and are found naturally in fruits, vegetables and
grains. Backed by clinical human studies, FOS has been
shown to increase, balance and maintain beneficial friendly bacteria
such as bifidobacteria and Lacobacillus probiotics and to offer optimum
gastrointestinal support.

Dr Fedorak Research on probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum
*Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) are nondigestible dietary fibers that help to keep the stomach and bowels healthy. They do this by nourishing and promoting the naturally present, friendly bacteria, especially Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli acidophilus probiotics capable of warding off infection in the digestive system. Because of these properties FOS is considered a prebiotic.
