In a lab study of a simulated gastric stomach environment, Sustenex delivered more than 10 times the number of live cells than a leading probiotic yogurt.**
Benefits of Sustenex Over Probiotic Yogurt:
- Survivability – Sustenex delivers over 10 times the live cells**
- Reliability – Sustenex requires no refrigeration
- Convenience – Sustenex is easy to take; just one caplet per day and you're on your way towards helping digestive and immune functions.*
Why is Sustenex More Effective Than Yogurt?
Unpasteurized yogurt is loaded with bacteria (referred to as “yogurt cultures”), but most commercial yogurt is heat-treated or pasteurized, a process that kills the bacteria. Some of these yogurts add bacteria (yogurt cultures) afterwards, but these added cultures must then survive stomach acids to arrive in the intestines.
Unfortunately, the amount of added bacteria is oftentimes not enough to exert any health benefit. Furthermore, it is generally agreed that a probiotic must be capable of colonizing the intestinal tract to influence human health. This requirement disqualifies many of the yogurt cultures currently used.
Conclusion: The probiotic bacteria in many yogurts and supplements are extremely fragile with less than 1% surviving to populate the intestines.
Sustenex is Different
Ganeden Biotech, the makers of Sustenex, has developed a revolutionary manufacturing process that includes at least 2 billion live probiotic cells per capsule. These cells, which are proprietary and patented, are then protected by a hardened organic layer to shield them from the stomach’s acidity and intestinal bile.
THE PROLIFIC PROBIOTIC BACTERIA
The resilient probiotic bacteria in Sustenex survive in significant numbers to successfully colonize the intestinal tract.*
What Does “Contains Active Yogurt Cultures”
Mean on a Label?
Yogurt labeled with this phrase means live and active yogurt
cultures have been added to the yogurt. However, these “live and active yogurt
cultures” may be live when they’re on your spoon, but many of them are dead by
the time they reach your intestines. Sustenex is unique because it uses a
completely different strain of bacteria that is live when it reaches your
intestines.
