Guide - Finding the Right Probiotic For You
Here's a run down of NutriKey's probiotics. Take a look at the "Who should use it" section to see if any of those statements sound familiar. If so, that probiotic would be a good place to start.
What Probiotic Is Right For You?
Here’s a quick rundown on our probiotics and how they’re unique:
Bifido Balance (Capsules) or Bifido Powder
What it is: A pure strain of bifidobacteria, the most prevalent good bacteria in your intestinal tract, making up (ideally) about 70% of your gut bacteria. That’s why we tend to start people here. Bifido Balance works amazingly well for eliminating those cravings, especially when paired with L-Glutamine.
Who should use it: Bifido Balance or Bifido Powder is a great place to start if you're new to probiotics or have a very sensitive system. It's also great for anyone struggling with sugar or carb cravings. Bifido Balance works amazing well for eliminating those cravings, especially when paired with L-Glutamine.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 Capsules or 1/2 teaspoon of powder 10 minutes before each meal.
What it is: Six different strains of bacteria and a beneficial yeast that cleans out other pathogens (bad microbes) in the gut so good strains of bacteria can colonize the intestinal tract instead.
Who should use it: those struggling wit yeast overgrowths like candida can benefit, because the beneficial yeast listed above helps kill off the yeast overgrowth.
Signs of candida could be sinus issues, skin conditions, toenail fungus, athletes foot, yeast infections, a white coating on the tongue, itchy ears and more.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 capsules daily before you go to bed.
Acidophilus (Capsule Form) or Dophilus Powder (Powder Form)
What it is: This pure strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus works in targeted areas, specifically those that line the stomach, bladder and vaginal tract.
For severe symptoms mentioned on this post we recommend the powder over the capsules.
Who should use it: Anyone who struggles with acid reflux, urinary tract infections, vaginal yeast infections, or frequent colds and flu.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 capsules or 1/2 teaspoon of powder before you go to bed.
What it is: A 50:50 blend of patented acidophilus and bifidobacteria, two of the most thoroughly studied probiotic strains.
Who should use it: Most anyone who has experience taking probiotics and is looking to diversify their intestinal tract bacteria.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 capsules daily 10 minutes before each meal.
What it is: A blend of nine probiotic strains that provide comprehensive vaginal and gastrointestinal support for women. Each probiotic strain works symbiotically to create a balanced microbiome, optimize reproductive and digestive health, and help improve immune function.
Who should use it? Women of all ages looking to support and maintain healthy intestinal and vaginal flora, or those experiencing vaginal or urinary tract infections.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 capsules daily before you go to bed.
What it is: A five-strain probiotic that helps curb cravings and appetite while supporting the intestinal lining.
It works to naturally boost GLP-1, also known as the "anti-hunger" hormone, by helping to increase the body's natural fullness signals.
It also supports healthy digestion, a balanced gut microbiome, and stable blood sugar levels for overall wellness.
Who should use it? Anyone looking for natural support for weight management, food cravings, appetite reduction, and overall gut health.
Dosage recommendations: 1-2 capsules daily before you go to bed.
