PureBi•OmeTM Cranberry offers four clinically researched probiotic strains,Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCIMB 30157), Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCIMB 30156), Bifidobacterium bifidum (NCIMB 30153) and Bifidobacterium lactis(NCIMB 30172) combined with Lactobacillus gasseri (CUL-09) and cranberry extract to support genitourinary and gastrointestinal tract health. Numerous studies indicate that both probiotics and cranberry support microflora balance in the G.I. tract and the genitourinary tract. In particular, lactobacilli, including L. acidophilus and L. gasseri, appear to target genitourinary balance and health. Additionally, studies suggest that L. gasseri may support epithelial barrier integrity and healthy cervical cell growth. PureBi•OmeTM Cranberry also includes PACRAN®, a unique whole fruit cranberry powder providing powerful proanthocyanidins and other phytonutrients to promote healthy genitourinary tract microflora balance, cytokine production and comfort in both women and men. In a 90-day, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 60 women, supplementation with PACRAN®cranberry supported healthy urinary microflora balance and urinary tract comfort. In a 6-month study involving 42 men, PACRAN® supplementation promoted healthy prostate function and urinary flow. PACRAN® cranberry may help support urinary tract health by moderating bacteria adhesion to the urinary tract wall.*
