Five-Strain Probiotic Support for Gut Health, Digestive Comfort and Immune Wellness

Support a balanced intestinal microbiome with Pure Encapsulations Probiotic-5, a broad-spectrum probiotic formula providing 10 billion colony-forming units from five carefully selected bacterial strains in every capsule.

The digestive tract is home to trillions of microorganisms that influence digestion, nutrient metabolism, intestinal-barrier function and immune activity. Diet, stress, travel, illness, medications and changes in routine can all affect the balance of this complex microbial community.

Probiotic-5 combines researched strains of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium to support healthy intestinal microflora, gastrointestinal comfort and the protective mucosal lining of the digestive tract. The dairy-free and soy-free formula is grown on a specialized plant-based medium and delivered in a convenient vegetarian capsule.

Whether you are building a foundational digestive-health routine or looking for targeted daily microbiome support, Probiotic-5 provides a straightforward five-strain formula without an unnecessarily high capsule count.

10 Billion CFU per Capsule

Each vegetarian capsule provides 10 billion colony-forming units, commonly abbreviated as CFU.

CFU is a measurement used to estimate the number of viable microorganisms in a probiotic product. While the total CFU count is important, the identity and quality of the individual strains are equally relevant.

Probiotic-5 combines five identified strains rather than using an unspecified bacterial blend.

Five Identified Probiotic Strains

Each capsule contains the following probiotic strains:

• Bifidobacterium lactis Bl-04

• Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14

• Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lr-32

• Bifidobacterium longum Bl-05

• Bifidobacterium bifidum Bb-06

These Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains provide broad support across different regions of the gastrointestinal tract.

Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14

Lactobacillus acidophilus is commonly found within the intestinal and gastrointestinal environment.

The La-14 strain helps support:

• Healthy intestinal microflora

• Digestive comfort

• Normal microbial balance

Support for a Healthy Gut Microbiome

The gut microbiome consists of bacteria and other microorganisms living throughout the digestive tract.

A healthy intestinal ecosystem helps support:

• Normal digestion

• Nutrient processing

• Production of certain microbial metabolites

• Intestinal-barrier integrity

• Immune-system communication

• Protection against excessive growth of less desirable organisms

Probiotic-5 introduces five beneficial bacterial strains to complement the microorganisms already present within the digestive tract.

A probiotic supplement works best alongside habits that nourish the microbiome, including adequate fiber, diverse plant foods, regular movement, sufficient hydration and consistent sleep.

Intestinal-Barrier Support

The intestinal lining forms an important boundary between the contents of the digestive tract and the rest of the body.

A healthy intestinal barrier helps regulate which nutrients and compounds are absorbed while supporting protection from undesirable substances. The mucosal layer covering the intestinal lining also provides an environment where beneficial microbes can interact with the digestive and immune systems.

Probiotic-5 supports gastrointestinal-barrier function by helping maintain:

• Healthy intestinal microflora

• The protective mucosal lining

• Normal epithelial integrity

• Balanced immune activity within the gut

Digestive Comfort and Regularity

Digestive comfort depends on many factors, including food choices, fiber intake, hydration, stress, physical activity and the composition of the intestinal microbiome.

Probiotic-5 supports a balanced microbial environment that can contribute to normal digestive function and gastrointestinal comfort.

It may be a useful addition for adults experiencing occasional changes related to:

• Travel

• Dietary transitions

• Changes in routine

• Periods of increased stress

• Reduced intake of fermented foods

• General microbiome imbalance

Persistent abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, blood in the stool, severe diarrhea or ongoing changes in bowel habits should be medically evaluated.

Probiotic Support for Immune Health

A significant amount of immune activity occurs in and around the gastrointestinal tract.

Beneficial intestinal bacteria interact with immune cells and the intestinal lining, helping support normal immune recognition, signaling and defensive responses.

Probiotic-5 supports:

• Normal gastrointestinal immune function

• Healthy B-cell, T-cell and natural-killer-cell activity

• Balanced cytokine production

• Intestinal-barrier defenses

• Overall immune wellness

Probiotic-5 is not intended to prevent or treat infections. It should complement foundational immune habits such as adequate sleep, balanced nutrition, regular exercise and appropriate preventive healthcare.

Healthy Yeast Balance

A balanced intestinal microbiome helps create an environment where beneficial bacteria and other microorganisms coexist appropriately.

The Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains in Probiotic-5 support healthy intestinal flora and normal yeast balance.

This product is not an antifungal medication and should not be used to self-treat a suspected yeast infection, oral thrush or another fungal condition.

Dairy-Free and Soy-Free Probiotic Strains

All five probiotic strains are grown on a dairy-free and soy-free medium, making Probiotic-5 suitable for customers who avoid these ingredients.

The formula is also:

• Vegetarian

• Gluten-free

• GMO-free

• Dairy-free

• Soy-free

• Free from artificial colors and sweeteners

• Free from unnecessary binders and preservatives

• Free from magnesium stearate

People with severe allergies should always inspect the current product label before use.

Protective Rice-Starch Technology

Probiotic organisms are sensitive to factors such as heat, moisture, oxygen and stomach conditions.

Probiotic-5 includes a specialized rice starch produced through a natural enzymatic process. This protective material helps maintain the viability of the probiotic organisms within the formula.

Refrigeration remains necessary to preserve culture viability throughout storage.

Probiotic-5 and Healthy Aging

Digestive and immune wellness become increasingly important throughout adulthood.

A healthy microbiome supports nutrient processing, gastrointestinal-barrier integrity and normal immune function—all of which contribute to long-term resilience and quality of life.

Probiotic-5 can complement a healthy-aging routine that includes:
