Nutrition 21 Introduces Probiotics, Omega-3 Combo

Probiomega is a new, unique probiotic ingredient that features an omega-3 “shield” that helps protect the bacteria from stomach acid during transit through the gastrointestinal tract. The ingredient features the KE-99 Lactobacillus casei probiotic strain, which the company says was chosen for its superior survivability on the shelf and in the gut and for its optimum colonization.
