10 Good Reasons to Chew CulturedCare™ Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12™

• Oral Probiotic Bacteria

Approved & licensed by Health Canada for improving oral health and to re-colonize friendly bacteria in the mouth.

• Immune Booster

Contains a therapeutic dose of BLIS K12, oral probiotic bacteria shown to act as an immune system booster.

• Backed by Science

Based on more than 30 years of research by Professor John Tagg at the Department of Immunology and Microbiology, CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 contains 20 mg and 500 million active bacteria at manufacturing. This is the exact amount of BLIS K12 recommended by Professor Tagg and his research.

• Delicious

Designed for adults and children, CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 comes in two delicious organic flavours: Spearmint-Peppermint and Raspberry-Pomegranate.

• Good for ear, nose and throat health

CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 promotes ear, nose and throat health. Professor Tagg’s research has shown BLIS K12 to especially protect against infections that cause sore throats, earache, upper respiratory distress.

• Stops Bad Breath

Halitosis (bad breath) is often caused by unfriendly bacteria “off-gassing” in the mouth. CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 stops the growth of these bacteria and recolonizes the mouth and oral cavity with friendly probiotic bacteria.

• Chewing Gum Form

Because BLIS K12 is an oral-cavity probiotic, it needs to be delivered in a format that has prolonged contact with the mouth, making a chewing gum the perfect delivery system.

• Optimal Probiotic Distribution

Chewing CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 increases the probiotic bacteria release and activity time in the mouth, as compared to a chewable tablet for example, and provides more opportunity for colonization of the K12 bacteria.

• Cold-Pressed

CulturedCare Probiotic Gum with BLIS K12 is made with a superior gum-making technology. Through cold-pressed, direct compression, the active BLIS K12 probiotic remains alive, active and stable. No heat or moisture is used in the manufacture of BLIS K12 gum.

• Sweetened with Xylitol, Isomalt & Stevia

Xylitol, isomalt and stevia are plant-based natural sweeteners that are safe for diabetics and have been shown to prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Hundreds of published studies found xylitol and isomalt promote oral health.
