Visbiome Vet. New Packaging for Pets.

Visbiome Vet is a new product from ExeGi Pharma. The original De Simone Formula is now available in packaging for Pets. Visbiome capsules are now available in a bottles of 40 capsules. The same as a human strength that is available in 60 capsules, Visbiome Vet contains 112.5 billion bacteria to help establish and maintain the balance of natural flora.

Why Visbiome Vet.

Research confirms that larger amounts of good bacteria are recommended for promoting optimal health.

If a pet probiotic has only 1–2 strains of bacteria, as is the case with many probiotics available today, then know that the probiotic may not be as efficacious as your pet may require for optimal gastrointestinal health.

The potency of your probiotic is critical. Knowing how many good or beneficial bacteria are in a scoop can indicate how effective the probiotic is.

Let’s take a quick look at a human example to make the point:

A multivitamin can contain numerous vitamins and minerals. Therefore, it is important for all these ingredients to be included in at least the daily recommended allowance per serving.

So now it’s easy to see that, even if your probiotic contains numerous strands of beneficial bacteria, you need to make sure it also contains a sufficient number of bacteria per scoop or serving.

Many products today contain between 1 and 3 million beneficial bacteria per scoop, and that is acceptable. Any amount of probiotics is better than none and can be somewhat helpful. However, in my opinion, if you really want to make sure you’re promoting optimal health and wellbeing, you can do far better.

“Ideally, I believe you’ll want to find a probiotic formula with 20, 30, 40 million or more beneficial bacteria per scoop or serving. Visbiome Vet, that contains 112.5 billion active beneficial bacteria per capsule and is the most studied formulation in the world.

Visbiome is available at Vitamin Cove USA.

Try Visbiome Today.

With many probiotic formulations  available to a consumer today, just a few fulfill their expectations. We would like to talk about a new probiotic named Visbiome. However, it’s name may be new, while history of it’s formulation goes way back. In the mid-1990s, Professor Claudio De Simone, M.D. invented a proprietary blend of probiotic strains (the “De Simone Formulation”).  Most recently the professor De Simone collaborated with ExeGi Pharma, LLC to produce Visbiome, a probiotic that uses the original proprietary blend of probiotic strains that De Simone originally invented over 20 years a go. Also, Visbiome contains non dairy free formulation. In fact, researchers widely studyed this formulation and with over 60 published human clinical studies this is the most studied probiotic in the world.

Why Try Visbiome.

Visbiome formulation contains the highest available concentration of live bacteria then any other probiotic formulation in the world. Originally design for for the dietary management of IBS, ulcerative, colitis and an ileal pouch. Visbiome contains good bacteria that naturally produced in our body, Visbiome is beneficial for our digestive and immune system. According to the 2014 Practice Guidelines by AASLD and EASL, probiotics may be an effective treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, though rigorous evaluation in standardized, randomized, clinical trial with clinically relevant outcomes is still needed. A new study reported in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences found that a probiotic formulation decreased inflammation in the cerebrospinal fluid, which is associated with neurocognitive disorders in people living with HIV.

Visbiome is available in capsule and powder packet form. Each Visbiome capsule contain 112.5 Billion strain, while each Visbiome Powder Packet contains 450 Billion Bacteria. Visbiome is NON GMO, Kosher and Halal, it is also available over the counter. However, Visbiome should be taken under the supervision of a physician. Visbiome Es is a prescription strength. Probiotic Visbiome is made in USA.

Visbiome is available at Vitamin Cove USA. We store and ship Visbiome refrigerated. All shipments include an ice pack and styrofoam lined box.

NOTE: Visbiome can be safely stored at room temperature for as long as one week.

The Antioxidant Vitamins.

Vitamins provide many health benefits by improving the body’s overall functions. But there is a group of vitamins know as antioxidants. Antioxidants protect our cells from the negative effects of free radicals. Free radicals are the byproducts of our body’s metabolic process. These free radicals are harmful to our body as they damage cells, which further increase the chances of the body developing chronic diseases like cancer and other cardiovascular diseases.

The three major antioxidant vitamins are beta-carotene (converts to Vitamin A), vitamin C, and vitamin E. You’ll find them in colorful fruits and vegetables. This trio of vitamins provides many benefits to our bodies.

Vitamin A.

Let us start with beta carotene (also known as the Vitamin A), the old saying eat your carrots is on point! This fat soluble antioxidant is key to good eyesight, a strong immune system, clear skin, healthy hair, and overall good health. In addition, studies are underway to confirm if beta carotene is effective in preventing cardiovascular disease. Carrots, sweat potatoes, spinach, kale, cantaloupe and apricots are some of the fruits and vegetables that contain beta carotene

Vitamin C.

Scurvy anyone?  The health benefits of Vitamin C are many and varied. Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin, easily absorbed by the body. The health benefits of Vitamin C include the prevention and treatment of scurvy, the common cold, improving the immune system, positive effects on blood pressure, treatment of lead toxicity, and improving skin elasticity, among many other benefits. Vitamin C can be found in citrus fruit, berries, kiwi and green leafy vegetables.

E Vitamin.

Vitamin E or Tocopherol as it is also known is a fat soluble vitamin often used in skin care for its anti-aging properties. Tocopherol also prevents cataracts by improving lens clarity. Studies are also underway to confirm if Tocopherol prevents and protects against heart diseases. Food rich in Tocopherol include almonds, swiss chard, mustard greens, spinach, kale, avocados, and plant oils like wheat germ.

These antioxidants are found in common fruits and vegetables but, if you tend to eat at strange times, or the same foods then a vitamin supplement will be beneficial.

Probiotics, Their Effect on Inflammation and Gut Health in Patients with HIV.

New antiretroviral therapies have substantially improved morbidity and mortality in patients with HIV, though chronic inflammation of the gut still remains an issue in this patient population.

Gut Theraphy.

The use of alternative therapies is very common among people living with HIV. However, their

efficacy has generally not been well demonstrated. Probiotics are live microbes. This live microorganisms provide a health benefit to the host and the investigators believe that the simultaneous use of probiotics

along with antiretroviral therapy will improve gut cell repair and function and therefore reduce

inflammation.

Several studies are underway with the probiotic supplement Visbiome using 900 billion live

bacteria daily. Visbiome is a live bacteria medical grade probiotic. Visbiome is a high potency probiotic

consisting of eight strains of live, freeze-dried lactic acid bacteria. Visbiome is a medical food.

Visbiome High Potency.

Probiotics are live microorganisms. Therefore when administered in adequate amounts, good bacteria provides a

health benefit. Probiotics are intended to modulate and augment the microbiome (colonies of

microbes in gut) for beneficial or therapeutic effects. Probiotic Visbiome consists of a high potency

blend of eight different Bacteria strains. Visbiome probiotic is supplied in powder as well as capsule form.

Visbiome Clinical Studies.

Studies have shown that Visbiome may modulate the immune response towards a phenotype that

is associated with reduce inflammation, and Visbiome was also protective in a non-human

primate model of SIV infection. Based on this evidence, it is expected that the helpful bacteria in

Visbiome will quicken the normalization of gut immune cells and function in HIV-infected

individuals as they start antiretroviral therapies. Early normalization of gut immune cells by

medical grade probiotics may benefit microbial translocation and immune activation and will

reduce the rates of HIV-associated inflammation of the gut.

Recent research has discovered the link of the gut microbiome to the gut-brain axis. The gut-

brain axis is the connection from the gut to the brain and vice versa. This connection explains

why we get butterfly feeling in the pit of our stomach when we are nervous or excited. This link

between the gut and the brain may cause the imbalance of the microbiome. Scientists believe that

the consistent use of probiotic supplements, especially the medical grade probiotics may restore a

healthy balance of bacteria in the gut.

Probiotic Treatment for Hepatic Encephalopathy.

Hepatic Encephalopathy and Probiotic Treatment

Hepatic encephalopathy, observed in patients with cirrhosis, is a disorder of the brain function as

a result of liver failure and/or portosystemic shunt. Characteristic symptoms of hepatic

encephalopathy include confusion, drowsiness, coma, and sometimes death

Probiotic Treatment.

1. According to the 2014 Practice Guidelines by AASLD and EASL, current treatment for hepatic

encephalopathy includes non-absorbable disaccharides, such as lactulose, and antibiotics such as

rifaximin. A recent, open-label study of lactulose, probiotics, or no therapy in patients with

cirrhosis who recovered from hepatic encephalopathy found fewer episodes of hepatic

encephalopathy in the lactulose or probiotic arms, compared to placebo

2. The concept of aproching hepatic encephalopathy with probiotics treatment has been suggested several

decades ago. Probiotic treatment aims at increasing the intestinal content of lactic acid-type

bacteria

3. It is hypothesized that our intestinal flora may produce ammonia; therefore, treatment

for hepatic encephalopathy should be directed at lowering intestinal ammonia production. This

means that treatment must aim at the intestinal ammonia sources

4. In a study conducted by Lie Et Al, modulation of gut flora was associated with a significant

reduction in blood ammonia levels and a reversal of minimal hepatic encephalopathy in 50% of

patients; improved hepatic function and serum transaminase levels in patients with alcohol- and

hepatitis C-related cirrhosis have also been reported. Another group reported improvement in

biochemical and neuropsychological tests in cirrhotic patients receiving probiotics

3. Probiotics may be an effective treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, though rigorous evaluation

in standardized, randomized, clinical trial with clinically relevant outcomes is still needed.

Try Visbiome Today

With many probiotic formulations  available to a consumer today, just a few fulfill their expectations. We would like to talk about a new probiotic named Visbiome. However, it’s name may be new, while history of it’s formulation goes way back. In the mid-1990s, Professor Claudio De Simone, M.D. invented a proprietary blend of probiotic strains (the “De Simone Formulation”).  Most recently the professor De Simone collaborated with ExeGi Pharma, LLC to produce Visbiome, a probiotic that uses the original proprietary blend of probiotic strains that De Simone originally invented over 20 years a go. Also, Visbiome contains non dairy free formulation. In fact, researchers widely studyed this formulation and with over 60 published human clinical studies this is the most studied probiotic in the world.

Why Try Visbiome.

Visbiome formulation contains the highest available concentration of live bacteria then any other probiotic formulation in the world. Originally design for for the dietary management of IBS, ulcerative, colitis and an ileal pouch. Visbiome contains good bacteria that naturally produced in our body, Visbiome is beneficial for our digestive and immune system. According to the 2014 Practice Guidelines by AASLD and EASL, probiotics may be an effective treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, though rigorous evaluation in standardized, randomized, clinical trial with clinically relevant outcomes is still needed. A new study reported in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences found that a probiotic formulation decreased inflammation in the cerebrospinal fluid, which is associated with neurocognitive disorders in people living with HIV.
