Liquid Power and Lecithin Questions

Posted on Author Dr. Marcus EttingerPosted in Essential Fatty Acids, Vitamins and Minerals

Question: How about adding probiotics to Liquid Power? And lecithin from soy, little concerned about estrogen from soy. What do you think?

Thanks,
Greg

Answer: Greg,

Thanks for the questions. Probiotics are killed by the HCl in the stomach. The preferred method of delivery is for the capsule to be enteric coated, that way it bypasses digestion in the stomach and releases the contents into the small intestine. Our formula Probiotic Flora-Health is enteric coated, contains multiple probiotic strains, and has FOS which is a food source for the probiotic strains. It’s the perfect formula.

Lecithin derived from soy does not contain phyto-estrogens. The PE’s are 99.9% eliminated with the protein, during processing, so no worries.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,
