Honor Your Gut Instinct
Improve your internal environment with a system that is much more than a mere probiotic
Dr. Ohhira's Probiotics 12 PLUS combines ancient fermentation
skills and modern science to create a powerful formula that changes the GI
environment to benefit all healthful strains and to discourage the bad. This unique
product was developed by renowned microbiologist Iichiroh Ohhira, Ph.D. and a
team of distinguished research scientists from Okayama University.
Balanced and Vigorous Twelve carefully selected strains are used in a 3-year fermentation process to maximize health-giving properties and to foster the strongest bacteria.*
Ready to Work The fermented original culture medium of nutritious mushrooms, vegetables, fruits and seaweed is encapsulated with the bacteria to provide a most effective and well-tolerated pre-biotic.
Broad and Lasting Benefits Organic acids naturally produced by bacteria help improve digestive pH for the benefit of the hundreds of other beneficial strains in your system — some strains are unique to the individual.*
Uniquely Strong Proprietary strain TH10 is 6 times stronger than other probiotics.*
Safe Guaranteed free of Soil-Based Organisms (SBO’s).*
Effective Guaranteed to cohere in the GI tract. Proven in university studies.*
Hypo-allergenic No dairy, soy or gluten.
Stable No refrigeration is needed because fermentation takes place at ambient temperatures— convenient. Impressive 3 year shelf life.
Perfectly Natural 100%vegatarian, including the soft capsule, non-GMO and free of pesticides and chemicals.
Why do we need to support the friendly bacteria?
Textbooks tell us that the hundreds of strains (3-4 lbs) of friendly bacteria in the gut perform these
fundamental roles:
Manufacture vitamins such as A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, K and Biotin
Crowd out pathogens and create substances (bacteriocins) that kill them
Digest foods, e.g. make lactase to help digest dairy products, break down cell walls of plant foods,
and turn fiber into fatty acids that feed the gut lining
Detoxify nasty substances
Create a significant portion of the bulk of the stool
You can just imagine the benefits that ripple through every system in the body from having a wellbalanced
digestive community. However, stress, chlorinated water, diets too high in processed foods, illness,
antibiotics, hormone replacement, other medicines and medical treatments are a few of the things that can
disrupt the delicate balance of organisms. Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics 12 PLUS helps to restore
the hundreds of strains of friendly bacteria necessary for optimal health.
Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics 12 PLUS is like no other product. Each of the 12 strains was
scientifically chosen for a special purpose. Proprietary TH 10 has been shown to be especially virulent
against worrisome modern threats. Dr. Ohhira’s attention to energetics is unusual and inspiring. For example,
the organic plant material culture medium is much richer in nutrient energy and is better tolerated than the
usual soy or dairy. Only crystal mountain spring water is used and the cultures are grown in an environment
infused with classical music which is known to improve activity levels of bacteria. The love Dr. Ohhira adds
is an important energy bonus.
Blister-packed for freshness and product integrity, Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics 12 PLUS is highly
portable for the consumer and stable at room temperature in a purse or on the night stand — it has a threeyear
shelf life. Of course Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics 12 PLUS contains no artificial additives,
chemicals, preservatives, coloring, flavoring, animal by-products, chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.
Suggested Use
Two to ten capsules daily with water (best taken on an empty stomach) or as directed by a health care professional.
This product is 100 percent natural and totally vegetarian, including the capsule material. Chemicals, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, preservatives, artificial additives, coloring agents and animal by-products are never used.
