    BiotaGen
    Klaire Labs
    $22.95 5.3oz powder

    Versatile prebiotic formula to optimize gut microflora, improve bowel function 
and support the immune system.

    BiotaGen is a distinctive formulation of soluble dietary fiber with prebiotic 
activities that stimulates growth of colonic populations of beneficial bacteria 
and enhances gastrointestinal and systemic immune function in multiple ways. 
BiotaGen combines chicory inulin and oligofructose, highly effective 
prebiotics, with the immunomodulating actions of larch arabinogalactan and 
purified yeast beta-glucan.

    Chicory-derived inulin and oligofructose are inulin-type fructans best known 
for their ability to sustain increases in populations of Bifidobacterium, 
Lactobacillus, and Eubacterium, an important butyrate-producing species 
indigenous to the bowel. By escaping digestion and absorption in the small 
intestine, inulin-type fructans arrive largely intact in the colon where they 
selectively feed beneficial gut microbiota. In addition, inulin-type fructans 
promote normal colon transit times, enhance absorption of calcium and 
magnesium, favorably modulate lipid levels, improve gut mucosal barrier and 
immune function, regulate intestinal epithelial cell growth, and reduce the 
number of potentially harmful bacterial species.

    Arabinogalactan, a polysaccharide derived from the Western Larch tree, is a 
highly soluble dietary fiber that enhances immune function by promoting 
cytokine production and increasing the number of natural killer cells. 
Indigestible by human enzymes, arabinogalactan exerts prebiotic properties 
including the ability to selectively stimulate Lactobacillus species. 
Arabinogalactan is metabolized to short-chain fatty acids acetate, butyrate, 
and propionate and reduces ammonia production.

    Beta-glucan, a glucose polysaccharide prebiotic fiber, has broad, beneficial 
effect on immune function through enhancement of monocytes, macrophages, and 
natural killer cells. Beta-glucan stimulates immune response to a wide spectrum 
of pathogens, including fungal (Candida albicans), Gram-positive 
(Staphylococcus aureus), and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) microorganisms.

    BiotaGen is recommended to nutritionally support optimal gastrointestinal 
function, promote populations of healthful colonic bacteria, and enhance 
gastrointestinal and systemic immune function. BiotaGen® works synergistically 
with probiotics to assure intestinal microflora balance. Available in both 
powder and vegetarian capsule form.

        High-potency, 50+ billion CFUs.
        Ther-Biotic Detoxification Support delivers large amounts of specific 
probiotics to the intestinal tract to complement detoxification protocols such 
as broad-spectrum antibiotics, anti-fungal/anti-microbial medications, or heavy 
metal chelating agents that can compromise friendly flora. Toxins and metabolic 
by-products generated during use of these agents can exacerbate intestinal 
dysbiosis and disturb the healthy balance of intestinal flora.
        Ther-Biotic Detoxification Support provides two colonizing Lactobacillus and 
one endogenous Bifidobacterium probiotic species that can support the body’s 
natural detoxification process by metabolizing or reducing the uptake of toxins 
in the gut thereby facilitating the elimination of toxins and by-products from 
the intestinal tract. Formulated with 50+ billion CFUs per capsule, Ther- 
Biotic Detoxification Support uses our proprietary InTactic technology to 
ensure maximum delivery of live microorganisms throughout the intestinal tract. 
Once a healthy balance of intestinal flora is achieved, use of Ther-Biotic 
Complete or Vital-10 is recommended for daily maintenance. This product is 
often suitable for individuals adhering to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
