Pro-Bio Defense
Supports the immune system and gastrointestinal (GI) system health. Includes the probiotic strains in Kirkman’s popular Pro-Bio Gold™ plus Saccharomyces boulardii. Free of common allergens. Gluten and casein free. 90 vegetarian capsules. Purity Tested.
Pro-Bio Defense contains the most important “resident” and “transient” microorganisms that contribute to maintaining and promoting a healthy GI tract. It offers the six probiotic strains in Kirkman’s popular Pro-Bio Gold™ with added Saccharomyces boulardii (S. boulardii), a special strain of yeast that has probiotic capabilities.
S. boulardii is considered a non-colonizing baker’s yeast species, which is very closely related to brewer’s yeast also known as S. cervesiae. Although it is a “yeast,” it is not related to the Candida species (Candida albicans, tropicalas, etc.), which can cause unhealthy microorganisms in the GI system and genitourinary tracts. It is known to be effective to support digestion when used alone or in combination with other probiotics.
All six probiotic strains used in Pro-Bio Defense have undergone DNA finger printing to support their identities and have exhibited long-term stability. More than 65 scientific studies and published articles have been written in support of the strains, documenting the ability of these strains to:
-
possess a high tolerance to survive stomach acids and bile salts;
-
support the body’s natural defenses and the intestinal tract’s immune system;
-
help alleviate occasional diarrhea and constipation;
-
address lactose metabolism issues;
-
adhere to and colonize the GI mucosal membrane;
-
assist with regulating intestinal mobility and normal bowel function;
-
possibly help create an inhibitory effect on free radical activity in the colon.

First time ordering from this Apothecary. Turn around was quick and the price was lower than other sites.
It came fast. That was good
Thank you
I use honey, pollen, and royal jelly, I think the products are the best thing for our body. I was using propolis but I had to go on blood thinners, propolis is really awesome too.
they are the est thing to use and very quick acting.
Ultra Meal is perfect for a meal supplement for extra nutrition or for dealing with sensitive digestion issues. Your doctor can guide you how to adopt Ultra Meal into your diet. It has an excellent flavor and makes a smooth shake. Add yogurt or fruit as you desire. It is perfect as a snack or a full meal.
Gillette Mach 3 refills are my first choice for comfort in shaving.
I love this stuff. Really works at removing orders. Once dry you can't smell anything. Unlike febreeze it doesn't cover up the smell with toxic fragrance. You end up having the bad order and the fragrance with most products at the store. This stuff actually eliminates it and leaves no other smell.
Wonderful product. My husband and I both take it. Good for respiratory and skin.
These leg cramp pills REALLY WORK! I am very satisfied with this purchase.
Teeth & Gums
Every time I go to the Village Green I am always greeted with a smile from everybody. If you ask someone for help, they always take the time to understand, not just what you’re looking for, but why you might need it or what they can possibly recommend in addition or in lieu of. Always so helpful . So courteous and professional. They want to understand you and can safely and reliably match you with appropriate products as needed
I badly hyperextended my left thumb last Summer. I iced it down and did all the right things to keep from aggravating it but it the joint continued swelling and stiffening up. I was close to heading to the emergency room when my friend Colena gave me a bottle of this to use about 12 hours after the injury. In an hour the swelling was already going down and the pain was decreasing. The attendant bruising was gone in less than 10 days. My thumb healed well. I have since sprained a foot and used it on that with equally good results.
The staff is incredibly helpful and always willing to special order supplements. I also find their supplements to be high quality.
I love shopping here for my supplements. The staff are so helpful
This is our first time taking this brand. So far, so good. We think it helps. Just ordered more so that’s a good sign. Thank you.
