Description
As we learn more about the interconnectedness of our various body systems, we also find ways to support them holistically. That’s why Swanson Men’s Daily Probiotic + Prebiotic FOS has been formulated by our in-house team of experts to boost microbiota throughout the body to combat stress and support digestive, urinary, prostate, immune and mental health.
Your gut is responsible not only for digestion, but is home to approximately 70% of your immune system, and also influences mental wellness via the gut-brain axis. This means that gut health is distinctly tied to healthy immune and stress responses, mood, cognitive health and much more. Our men’s probiotic features several strains of HOWARU® probiotics that have clinically demonstrated benefits specific to men’s health such as digestive, prostate, urinary, immune, respiratory and bowel health. This specialized blend includes Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM®, doctor-trusted to promote digestive health.* These are complemented by a variety of strains aimed at promoting a healthy response to stress, encouraging gut comfort and reproductive function.

A common concern unique to men is prostate health, and along with it, issues of urinary tract flow and frequency. As a time-honored and science-backed botanical, saw palmetto delivers potent fatty acids to help maintain a healthy prostate and normal urinary flow. It has also been studied for hair health and density.(1)
As a synbiotic formula, Swanson Men’s Daily Probiotic includes prebiotic fructooligosaccharides (FOS) which feed the beneficial probiotics and help them thrive, as well as promote a healthy colonic pH. This comprehensive targeted formula is shelf-stable so no refrigeration is necessary. For best results, research suggests taking approximately one-half hour before a meal.

Looking for a Companion to Your GLP-1 Weight Management Journey?
You know probiotics help with digestion, but what does that really mean for weight management? If you're dealing with unpleasant challenges related to GLP-1 agonist use, probiotics can help with digestive function and nutrient absorption, meaning better GI comfort and getting the most out of your healthy diet. As probiotics break down and ferment indigestible foods they produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) which emerging research indicates may influence gut hormones such as GLP-1. Swanson Men's Daily Probiotic delivers an array of beneficial strains plus prebiotic FOS to nourish the probiotics.
