Probiotics
Medella Naturals™ offers probiotics for the entire family. All our probiotic formulas contain a prebiotic and are manufactured in the United States in cGMP, FDA registered facilities.
Medella Naturals’ Non-GMO probiotics are Non-Dairy and DO NOT contain: gluten, wheat, soy, salt, sugar, maltodextrin, animal derivatives, eggs, yeast or artificial flavors. Our entire probiotic lineup is shelf stable and does not require refrigeration.
Double Benefit of Prebiotics
Medella Naturals'™ unique prebiotic combination of Sunfiber® & FOS enhances the overall efficacy of its probiotics.* Prebiotics are non-digestible carbohydrates that act as food for probiotics. Probiotics are manufactured in a freeze dried state. Better said, the cells are sleeping and despite all the efforts used to keep them in this dormant state, even the slightest exposure to light, heat, moisture or air can cause some of these cells to wake. When they awaken they’re hungry and need food, and without a food source they will die. This is why prebiotics need to be present…to provide food so the live cultures can stay alive. It’s extra insurance that every good probiotic supplement should have available.Active Packaging Technology
Probiotics are sensitive to moisture and oxygen. Medella Naturals ™ moisture controlling bottle and oxygen removal system delivers additional product stability to our packaged probiotics. The uniquely engineered Activ-Polymer™ bottle features an impenetrable desiccant sleeve - surrounding the probiotics so they stay virtually moisture free. To further extend shelf life, every Medella Naturals ™ bottle contains an Oxyfree® desiccant. With this single oxygen destroying packet, residual moisture inside the bottle is absorbed, bringing oxygen levels in the bottle to 0.01% during the intended shelf life.
Delayed Release Veggie Capsules
Probiotics need time to work. The innovative benefit of the delayed release veggie capsule helps protect probiotics from stomach acid, safely delivering them to the intestines for maximum product benefit and significantly reducing the opportunity for nutritional degradation compared with standard immediate release capsules. Key study results displayed the disintegration of the delayed release veggie capsule starting approximately 45 minutes later than a typical immediate release capsule of about 5 minutes. All Medella Naturals ™ capsulated probiotics are produced with a delayed release veggie capsule.
Acid and Bile Resistant Strains
All Medella Naturals ™ probiotic strains are sourced through DuPont™ Danisco® - trusted by many of the world’s leading manufacturers of dietary supplements and nutritionals. These probiotic cultures have proven stability and are internationally recognized as safe for consumption. The unique and patented stabilization technology has been applied across the probiotic range, allowing Medella Naturals ™ to offer the most stable overall probiotics in the industry and help meet the ultimate goal of delivering the intended health benefit to the consumer.**
