Swanson Women's Daily Probiotic + Prebiotic FOS

Health-savvy folks know that probiotics are great for digestive function, but actually their benefits go way beyond that. Swanson Women’s Daily Probiotic + Prebiotic FOS has been formulated by our in-house team of experts to boost microbiota throughout the body to combat stress and support digestive, urinary, vaginal, bladder, immune and cognitive health. As we learn more about the interconnectedness of our various body systems, we also find ways to support them holistically. Your gut is responsible not only for digestion, but is home to approximately 70% of your immune system, and also influences mental wellness via the gut-brain axis. This means that gut health is distinctly tied to healthy immune and stress responses, emotional wellbeing, cognitive health and much more. Our women’s probiotic features several strains of HOWARU probiotics that have clinically demonstrated benefits specific to women’s health such as digestive, bladder, urinary, immune, vaginal and cognitive health. This specialized blend includes Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM, doctor-trusted* to support digestive health. These are complemented by other probiotic strains aimed at reducing perceived stress and promoting calm, gut comfort and respiratory function. Women already know how hormonal fluctuations can impact their GI tract, so we’ve included strains to complement your unique microbiome composition to promote balance and comfort. The vaginal tract is another distinct environment where supplemental probiotics can help by working to maintain healthy pH levels, as well as combat dryness and other challenges associated with the menopausal transition. Women are also familiar with urinary health concerns, which is why we included time-honored and science-backed cranberry, which has been clinically studied to improve bladder comfort. As a synbiotic formula, Swanson Women’s Daily Probiotic includes prebiotic fructooligosaccharides (FOS) which feed the beneficial probiotics and help them thrive, as well as promote a healthy colonic pH. This comprehensive targeted formula is shelf-stable so no refrigeration is necessary. For best results, research suggests taking approximately one-half hour before a meal
