ProThrive™ harnesses the gut-brain axis to promote cognitive function, concentration and mental ease. This formulation contains strictly clinically tested ingredients, including both spore-forming and non-spore-forming probiotics, along with Saffron extract. ProThrive™ utilizes a novel probiotic strain known as Bifidobacterium longum 1714™, a heavily researched, commensal bacteria with profound psychobiotic properties. Studies show that 1714™ promotes theta and alpha brain waves, which are associated with a flow state, or a state-of-mind in which a person is fully immersed in an activity with focus and enjoyment.
ProThrive™ also contains a blend of Bacillus probiotic strains, known as MegaTrio™, which support the gut mucosal barrier and promote cytokine balance. In addition, we’ve added a clinically-tested Saffron extract ingredient to support neurotransmitter production and relaxation.
Each ingredient in ProThrive™ targets a unique mechanism involved in brain function and emotional wellbeing to provide comprehensive support.
