The above ingredients are allowed to ferment naturally in unpolluted mountain spring water for a period of 3 years. . Due to the way LB17 "live" probiotic is exposed to extremes in temperature (summer and winter) during the fermentation process, the bacteria in LB17 "live" probiotic are potent, resilient and are able to stay alive (up to 3 years!) at room temperature without the need for refrigeration. They are "live" and do not need to be revived unlike most of the other probiotics particularly those that were "freeze dried"!

Prior to encapsulation, Perilla oil (high in Omega 3 EFA) is added to provide even better benefits to the user

No preservatives, additives, colouring, artificial flavouring are used in the production process

LB17 "live" probiotic is suitable for vegetarians as well as the "raw foods practitioner". It is also suitable to the lactose intolerant and milk protein (caesin) sensitive individuals.

The concentrate in each vegetable capsule of LB17 "live" probiotic contains 17 strains of lactic bacteria (11 lactobacillus + 2 bifido bacterium), amino acids, vitamins and minerals

An European study has shown that lactic bacteria is an effective and potent antifungal. Accordingly, it would be effective for the treatment and eradication of Candida. At the same time, it would benefit the user by bringing balance back to the intestinal flora and prevent re-infection due to the colonizing effects of the LAB in LB17 live probiotic

The benefits of using LB17 "live" probiotic include, but are not limited to, the following:

Lignans have been recognised and acknowledged by the medical fraternity as effective in treating and preventing cancers such as breast, bowel, colon and prostate

THE ROLE OF LACTIC BACTERIA IN THE PREVENTION AND THE TREATMENT OF DISEASES:

Among the most important are: Lactobacillus acidophilus, L. bifidus, L. bulgaricus, L casei, L. rhamnosus, L. plantarum, L. fermentum. L. salivarius, Streptococcus thermophilus and Streptococcus faecium. They inhibit the proliferation and the activities of pathogenic bacteria in several ways.

By the production of lactic acid:
Harmful and pathogenic bacteria cannot develop in an acidic environment

By the production of specific antibiotics:
Lactobacillus acidophilus produces acidophiline, L bulgaricus produces bulgarican, other lactobacilli produce lactocidine, lactobacilline, hydrogen peroxide, bacterial peptides, lactic streptococci produce nisin and streptococcins. These are all anti-septic to pathogenic bacterium.

It has been shown that lactic bacteria, in particular Streptococcus faecium, colonize the intestinal mucosa preventing its attachment by other harmful microbes. This protects the integrity of the digestive system eliminating the onset of many digestive disorders.

Comments from healthcare professionals who have used LB17:

Canada
"... I have been using different probiotic blends over the years. The best I found by far is LB17. The ... more strands of different friendly bateria, the better the probiotic. It has been my experience that LB17 covers every area of body fluids from the sinuses to the reproductive organs which give LB17 a great advantage over any other probiotic. My patients love the small size of the capsules and I have used LB17 with great success on open wounds and stubborn acne by ... applying ... directly to the wound.

... be happy to recommend LB17 to any health practitioner."..
