Question 2

What makes this brand better than a cheaper brand

Accepted Answer

Hi Shirley,
BioTE supplements are supplied by Thorne Research - one of the most respected suppliers in the business. When it comes to probiotics, quality is key. It is not necessarily how many millions and billions of microbiota that are in the probiotic - but how many survive the gastric fluids in your stomach, to reach the small intestine so it can start the repair and protect process you are shooting for with probiotics.
Probiotics are living microorganisms, like bacteria and yeast, that reside in our gut and are vital for our body to function properly. However, our contemporary diet and modern medicine have made it very easy for the body to lose the most important types of gut bacteria, leaving our body to slow down or be sluggish. When taken daily, probiotics promote good gut microbiota bacteria that support a healthy immune system, hormone and pH balance, weight management, and a steady digestive system. MULTI-STRAIN PROBIOTICS 20B helps replenish and support healthy bacteria in your microbiome. The microbiome plays a vital role in the recycling and metabolizing of hormones, including thyroid hormones and estrogen. BioTE MULTI STRAIN PROBIOTICS 20B contains 20 billion active cultures per capsule and supports the digestive tract and immune function of individuals under stress. Packaging protects each capsule from natural factors proven to compromise probiotics' stability, such as heat, moisture, and oxygen. Each strain selected is well-researched and identity-verified and has been genetically characterized and properly classified for safety and assurance. 
I hope this helps! All the best, Carolyn Zaumeyer, Nurse Practitioner, BioTE Provider at LowTE Florida.
