It contains compounds called schisandrins (schisandrin gomisin A deoxyschisandrin gomisin N and wuweizizu C) which are believed responsible for the therapeutic effects. Southern Schisandra Schisandra spenanthera (see Product X in the trace) is considered inferior due to lower levels of schisandrins however it is often used interchangeably with Schisandra chinensis. Manufacturers therefore need to be very careful to avoid substitution with Schisandra spenanthera. The species are readily distinguishable morphologically and by HPLC.

Soluble fibre helps slow the rate of digestion promoting digestive health and nutrient absorption. It also absorbs water and adds bulk in the digestive tract to support weight management as part of a healthy lifestyle that includes a reduced-calorie diet and regular exercise. Research has revealed that the high molecular weight and viscosity of glucomannan is particularly supportive of these effects. In an eight-week double-blind trial glucomannan provided statistically significant support for weight management in combination with a healthy lifestyle. Fibre also promotes G.I. motility and regularity supporting healthy bowel movements and softer stools by adding bulk. Studies with glucomannan indicate that this fibre promotes abdominal comfort G.I. motility and bowel regularity and is well-tolerated. Furthermore xylooligosaccharides and soluble fibres are fermented in the large intestines by intestinal microflora producing short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs are important energy sources for the colon and can promote healthy gastrointestinal motility. SCFAs also keep the intestinal environment acidic providing optimal conditions for beneficial bacteria to thrive.

Invertase and lactase support digestion of carbohydrate disaccharides, including the dairy sugar lactose. This formula also offers cellulase, hemicellulase, beta-glucanase and phytase. These enzymes break down cell wall components and phytic acid, promoting nutrient bioavailability of fibre-containing foods. Additionally, alphagalactosidase promotes the breakdown of certain complex carbohydrates, such as raffinose and stachyose, found in some legumes, vegetables and grains before they can be metabolized by gas-producing bacteria in the colon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pure Encapsulations","offers":[{"title":"180 vegetable capsules","offer_id":40508719071255,"sku":"DEU1C-C","price":67.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/8922\/6775\/products\/digestive-enzymes-ultra.webp?v=1749227677"},{"product_id":"pure-encapsulations-probiotic-50b","title":"Pure Encapsulations Probiotic 50B","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupports gastrointestinal health and contributes to a favourable gut flora\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDairy- and soy-free formula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProbiotic 50B provides 50 billion CFU per capsule of the beneficial bacteria\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLactobacillus acidophilus\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLactobacillus rhamnosus\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLactobacillus plantarum\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLactobacillus gasseri\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBifidobacterium longum\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esubsp.\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLongum\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBifidobacterium bifidum\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBifidobacterium animalis\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esubsp.\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003elactis\u003c\/em\u003e. This formula is offered in acid-resistant capsules with pH-targeted release for maximal probiotic viability. These capsules are designed to resist disintegration in an acidic environment (i.e. stomach) and dissolve in more alkaline environments (i.e. small and large intestine). This technology helps to protect the organisms from stomach acid, delivering the maximal viable organisms to the G.I. tract. This blend of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria is designed to promote healthy intestinal ecology to support gastrointestinal health. Probiotics have been shown to maintain healthy G.I. barrier function, in part by supporting intestinal epithelial integrity. Several trials have also revealed that mixed probiotic supplementation helps maintain intestinal flora and promote G.I. comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pure Encapsulations","offers":[{"title":"60 capsules","offer_id":40508837756951,"sku":"PR56C-C-ICE","price":92.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/8922\/6775\/products\/probiotic-50b-pr56c-c.png.mst.webp?v=1749227677"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.vitamintree.ca\/collections\/practitioner-recommended-digestion-probiotics.oembed?page=4","provider":"Vitamin Tree","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
