Pregnancy Support | 30 Capsules

Pregnancy Support is a specialist multi-strain bacterial supplement formulated by Microbiome Labs for women considering supplementation before conception, during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. It combines six carefully selected bacterial strains in a convenient once-daily vegetable capsule.

Unlike general multi-strain bacterial supplements, Pregnancy Support combines three branded ingredient groups: LGG®, ASTARTE™ and ISTILOS™. Together, these provide six identified strains of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, with 25.1 billion CFU per capsule.

The UK formula contains six bacterial strains:

• Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG®)
• Lactobacillus crispatus LBV 88
• Lactobacillus rhamnosus LBV 96
• Lactobacillus gasseri LBV 150N
• Lactobacillus jensenii LBV 116
• Bifidobacterium infantis BIFIN02 (ISTILOS™)

The four LBV strains form part of the ASTARTE™ blend.

Each capsule provides 25.1 billion CFU (colony-forming units) from the combined six-strain bacterial blend.

The blend weighs 207 mg per capsule.

ASTARTE™ is a branded blend containing four selected Lactobacillus strains: L. crispatus, L. rhamnosus, L. gasseri and L. jensenii.

These bacterial species have been studied in relation to the human microbiome, including the naturally occurring bacterial communities found in the vaginal environment.

ISTILOS™ is a branded ingredient containing Bifidobacterium infantis BIFIN02, a bacterial strain originally isolated from the intestine of a healthy infant.

It is included alongside the five Lactobacillus strains to create the product's six-strain formulation.
