Brief Summary
The dietary supplement being investigated is a formula containing a combination of eight probiotic strains. The combination formula was developed to support general gastrointestinal and immune health. Each of the strains in the formula have previously been studied in human subjects, including several clinical populations. However, the present eight strain combination formula has not previously been evaluated in human subjects. This prospective study will evaluate the tolerability of the eight strain formula in healthy adults.
