Probio Pcc™
Regular price $73.00The digestive system is your body’s first line of defence against unwanted organisms consumed with food. An important component of your digestive defence system is friendly bacteria that aid digestion and enhance your body’s own digestive immune response. As we encounter challenges to our digestive system we can severely disturb the delicate balance of our body’s intestinal flora, which can cause occasional gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort. Fortunately, a healthy balance of intestinal flora can be supported through the consumption of food or food supplement products that contain friendly live bacteria cultures commonly referred to as probiotics.
Pharmanex’s unique strain of Lactobacillus has shown an extraordinary resilience to the growth of undesirable organisms in the gastrointestinal tract. Clinical research shows an increase in the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract after the introduction of this particular bacteria strain. Its ability to survive passage through the harsh environment of the stomach, its ability to colonise and act as a “friendly tenant,” and its resilient and stable nature make ProBio PCC™ superior to many other probiotic products.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ProBio PCC™?
ProBio PCC™ is a probiotic dietary supplement that provides two billion CFUs (colony forming units) of a unique strain of Lactobacillus.
What ingredients does ProBio PCC™ contain?
ProBio PCC™ provides a unique strain of friendly bacteria (Lactobacillus fermentum PCC) shown to be resistant to an acidic environment and can effectively colonise in the lower digestive tract. Each ProBio PCC™ capsule is guaranteed to contain a minimum of two billion CFUs (colony forming units) of the strain L. fermentum PCC at the end of shelf life.
Are there scientific studies validating ProBio PCC™?
The primary goal of probiotic therapy is to help establish the natural balance of intestinal microflora in order to have an optimally functioning digestive defence system; this effect is well established in independently published research. The health benefits of L. fermentum PCC are supported by 12 clinical studies.
How does ProBio PCC™ work?
ProBio PCC™ has been clinically proven to encourage the proliferation of healthy probiotic bacteria in the lower digestive tract, thus helping to fortify the natural digestive defence system. By actively colonising the lower digestive tract, ProBio PCC™ may be able to discourage the development of undesirable microorganisms.
Why is ProBio PCC™ unique?
ProBio PCC™ has been developed through scientific and analytical methods to ensure the product meets label claims for live cultures (CFUs) at the end of shelf life, a more valid indicator of efficacy than claiming number of live cultures at manufacturing. Pharmanex’s unique strain of Lactobacillus was isolated from a Swedish woman who showed an extraordinary resilience to undesirable organisms. This unique strain of Lactobacillus called Lactobacillus fermentum has the ability to survive passage through the harsh environment of the stomach and has the ability to colonise in the intestine. In developing ProBio PCC™, Pharmanex® has followed the probiotic guidelines as established by the FAO/ WHO expert consultation for pH survival, colonisation, identity, and dosing.
Is ProBio PCC™ safe?
ProBio PCC™ is safe and well tolerated at the recommended dosage. Lactobacilli have a long history of use as probiotics without established risk to humans, which remains the best proof of safety. If you are pregnant or lactating, or taking a prescription medication, consult a physician prior to use. There are no known side effects at the recommended dosage.
