Maintain digestive balance
There are billions of microorganisms in your gut, and maintaining the balance of this natural flora can help support your digestive system, support your immune system—even impact your mood. Not to mention it can help you avoid intestinal upset. Taking Florastor daily can encourage the growth of your body's natural flora,†3 helping you achieve digestive balance and the whole-body health we all desire. -
Studied and trusted
The quality of Florastor is backed by more than 60 years of clinical research and the recommendation of doctors in more than 100 countries. Florastor is naturally derived from the skin of lychee and mangosteen fruits, and is both gluten-free and vegetarian. Our patented dehydration process preserves the active ingredient in Florastor while eliminating the need for refrigeration. -
Appropriate for the whole family
Florastor makes it easy for children to enjoy the advantages of a probiotic. The same product that helps adults achieve digestive balance is also safe for kids two months and older.†7 Simply break open the capsule, and the contents can be mixed into liquids or semisolid food. It can turn taking a daily probiotic into enjoying a tasty snack. -
-
Works with antibiotics
When you undergo antibiotic treatment, it can kill off your body's natural flora, which can lead to negative health effects. Most probiotics are bacterial, and antibiotics can be just as hard on them. Florastor, though, is yeast-based, and can resist the impact antibiotics have on your intestinal tract†6 and continue to work on promoting your natural flora†3. -
Portable and perfect for travel
Florastor, unlike most bacterial probiotics, does not need to be refrigerated and is shelf-stable for up to three years. Not only does that make it more convenient to take every day, but it makes it a great companion for travelers. Take it before and during travel to help avoid being slowed down by intestinal distress. -
