Probios Dispersible Powder

Probios Dispersable Powder is an easy-to-add supplement that is good for any species of animal. It supports the digestive system by working to help break down and utilize nutrients in an effective way, and it also works to strengthen the immune system. Probiotics have been shown to benefit household pets, such as cats and dogs. Some of the conditions probiotics can help treat are skin and coat problems, as well as diarrhea and other digestive issues.

Many other benefits have been shown in the studies on the use of probiotics for livestock and poultry. Studies indicate that feeding select cultures of L. acidophilus helps to increase milk yield in dairy cattle, and the daily use of probiotics on piglets and kids have shown results in increased growth and feed efficiency. Certain cultures of probiotics work to exert inhibitory action toward salmonella in the intestinal tracts of  chickens. This powder supports the digestive tract, which is important because gastrointestinal illness is a primary concern for many livestock owners, and also one of the most expensive conditions to treat.

Dispersable Powder is a diverse source of live, direct fed microbials. One microbial alone does not provide all of the desired health benefits, so this supplement contains four species of naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria, including Enterococcus faecium and three species of Lactobacillus: acidophilus, casei, and plantarum. Enterococcus faecium promotes intestinal well-being, while Lactobacillus acidophilus specifically helps to improve gut absorption of nutrients and maintain proper intestinal flora. It has also been shown to help prevent yeast infections in the upper digestive tract, especially those caused by  Candida albicans. Lactobacillus casei complements the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus and works to propagate desirable bacteria, while Lactobacillus plantarum is necessary for the production of lactic acid.

What is Probios Dispersible Powder used for?

Probios contains a source of live (viable) direct fed microbials. Since one direct fed microbial alone cannot provide all the required health benefits, it contains four species of live naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria including three species of Lactobacillus (acidophilus, plantarum, casei) along with Enterococcus faecium. It has an elevated level of these direct fed microbials to help colonize the digestive tract with the naturally occurring beneficial bacteria. This beneficial bacteria is necessary to help aid in the absorption of nutrients as well as help support the immune system.
