Summary
Travelers’ Probiotic is a unique therapeutic probiotic formula that crowds out the harmful bacteria that cause travelers’ sickness and maintains healthy intestinal flora during travel abroad.
Travelers’ Probiotic helps reduce the risk of traveler’s diarrhea. Traveler’s sickness symptoms include diarrhea, nausea, abdominal cramps, vomiting, and bloating, and in extreme cases can cause fever, chills, and bloody stools.
Travelers’ Probiotic is a unique formula that populates the intestines with the therapeutic amount of 10 billion live cells of the beneficial yeast Saccharomyces boulardii. S. boulardii is a transient yeast which crowds out harmful bacteria that cause travelers’ sickness. This creates favorable conditions for the 21 billion colony-forming units of 11 scientifically proven probiotic strains to restore the balance of healthy intestinal flora.
The water-based GPS™ natural enteric-coated vegetable capsule survives harsh stomach acids to deliver 100% of the therapeutic benefits of each capsule of Travelers’ Probiotic.
Consider an investment in Travelers’ Probiotic for the prevention and treatment of travelers’ diarrhea as a way of safeguarding your dream vacation from becoming a nightmare.
