Human microflora is, by far, the most compatible with your digestive system. It has the ability to colonize and multiply within the gastrointestinal tract whereas other forms (dairy and plant) sometimes fail to stick to the intestinal wall or simply die off after ingestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eEntire GI Tract Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tHCP70 is specifically designed to inhabit and protect the entire length of the GI tract. The Lactobacilli (Rhamnosus, Acidophilus and Salivarius) primarily colonize within the small intestine, while the Bifidobacteria (Breve, Bifidum and Longum) are most prevalent within the large intestine. Consideration was also given to ensure oral and vaginal probiotic health. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cimg alt=\"Progressive HCP 70 High Potency Probiotic, 100% Human Strain, 70 Billion - Refrigerated\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/4126\/8139\/files\/Entire-GI-Tract-Protection.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\r\n\tOptimum Stability\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eHCP70 Probiotic\u003c\/strong\u003e is manufactured using a cryoprotective process that ensures the viability of the flora.

While the above measures have a profound impact on the lifespan of the microflora allowing it to withstand room temperature for prolonged periods of time, we still recommend that you refrigerate HCP70 Probiotic whenever possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eHCP70 Probiotic Is Not Enteric Coated\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tSome debate exists on whether enteric coating a probiotic supplement will reduce the amount of gastric damage following ingestion. Fermented foods have been acting as our primary source of dietary probiotics for centuries without being enteric coated. As well, enteric coatings typically use a polymer of acrylic acid (a synthetic chemical) which conflicts with HCP70 Probiotic's all natural approach. During a meal our stomach pH increases and becomes more alkaline (between pH3 and pH4.5). The strains in HCP70 Probiotic are acid tolerant and can be exposed to a gastric solution in this range without suffering any bacterial loss, eliminating the need for enteric coating. We simply encourage you to take HCP70 Probiotic with food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Progressive","offers":[{"title":"60 Vegetable Capsules","offer_id":42621843210411,"sku":"","price":43.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"120 Vegetable Capsules","offer_id":42621843243179,"sku":"","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/4126\/8139\/products\/Progressive-HCP-70-Full-Sectrum-Probiotic_3ae3325a-294a-4dba-96d6-a192537e25af.jpg?v=1710976459","url":"https:\/\/www.vitamart.ca\/fr\/products\/progressive-hcp-70-probiotic","provider":"Vitamart.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
