The hard work you do as an athlete creates an imperative to maintain proper gut health. As athletes, we put a lot of extra stress on our bodies and digestive system, making us especially prone to GI issues, which can lead to a slew of health concerns. In fact, keeping your gut microflora healthy is the number one way to ensure optimal athletic performance from improved immune function to increasing your ability to absorb more beneficial nutrients out of the food you already consume. A number of years ago, my Tour de France team had all the athletes use a Probiotic every morning at breakfast. While teams all around us were coming down with illness, my entire team made it to the finish in Paris without getting sick. While this data is purely anecdotal, since then daily Probiotics have been a part of all the athletes' regular routine. What makes a strong probiotic? Most probiotics market themselves as having X Billion CFUs, which stands for how many living and active organisms are in a dosage. While having enough living organisms is important, it is not the most important piece of probiotics. What matters most is diversity and this is the strength of SwissRX™ Probiotic and why it has become the number one choice for Athletes. Think of probiotics as a tree... The tree has seven main branches. These branches are the seven species of probiotics used for good gut health. Each of these branches has a lot of twigs. The twigs represent the many different strains of each species. In order to achieve a truly diverse gut flora, you're probiotic needs to include multiple species, NOT just a bunch of strains of one or two species... It's important to have multiple SPECIES over STRAINS because each species will work in a different part of your GI tract, ensuring full coverage and a diverse microbiome Therefore, when a probiotic boosts biodiversity it's often a misleading statement since it's likely they include different strains of only one or two species. This is a simple but important distinction, one that most probiotics get wrong. Introducing you to SwissRX™ Probiotic for athletes As one of the most (truly) diverse probiotics in the world, it includes six out of the seven different species (branches) of probiotics, providing a massive amount more diversity (and better results) than any other probiotic on the market... Give your gut exactly what it needs to thrive and you'll be amazed by how good you can feel, whether your training, racing, or just living your everyday life... Remember, the amount of stress endurance athletes put on their gut means the average probiotics aren't up to the task of maintaining good gut health. This is why the pros (and doctors) choose SwissRX™ Probiotics over all the others. But wait, there's more... Aside from true biodiversity, SwissRX™ probiotic has two other distinct advantages. Advantage #1: Fuels the growth of your existing healthy bacteria through a powerful pre-biotic. Prebiotics are an ideal nutrition source for the healthy bacteria already in your gut which allows them to flourish and get a stronghold against bad bacteria. Advantage #2: The real 'secret sauce' in SwissRX™ probiotics is the inclusion of saccharomyces boulardii (SAK-a-roe-MYE-sees boo-LAR -dee). This special probiotic binds to C. diff, H. pylori, candida, and e.coli so that they are flagged for removal from your Gut. For this reason, it's frequently used by Doctors in treating these more severe GI issues and is helpful as a daily preventive to stop these issues from starting. It's also a great probiotic for women's health. As a high-dose probiotic, SwissRX™ has been shown to activate over 1,700 genes involved in immune and inflammatory signaling. High does probiotics improve immune function, maintain a healthy gut-immune barrier, and maintain normal inflammatory balance. It's the pro's probiotic and a must-have for optimal health in serious athletes. What's the difference between SwissRX™ Probiotic and SwissRX™ Probiotic 100 Billion? Both products have the same formula of species, strains, and pre-biotics. The difference is that SwissRX™ Probiotic is 20 Billion CFUs and SwissRX™ Probiotic 100 Billion is over 100 Billion CFUs. SwissRX™ Probiotic 100 Billion was developed specifically for athletes during times of higher stress, like during competitions and heavy training periods. For normal day to day usage and maintenance of healthy gut flora, SwissRX™ Probiotic is the right choice. During times of stress and that includes the 4 weeks prior to a major competition, heavy training volume weeks, after any GI issues, and while traveling, then SwissRX™ Probiotic 100 Billion is the right choice. We do see a number of Pro Athletes using Probiotic 100 Billion as their daily Probiotic. It won't hurt and might help to have more CFUs, it is just a question of cost as SwissRX Probiotic 100 Billion is much more expensive.
