I recently got a couple questions about the FOS (fructo-
oligosaccharides) in Super Shield probiotic formula that
deserve repeating:
Q: "What is FOS, and why is it in Super Shield?"
A: Fructo-oligosaccharides are a carbohydrate fiber.
They are added to Super Shield because FOS are an excellent
PREbiotic--that is, they nourish the beneficial bacterial
in the capsules and your gut.
FOS is a fiber that occurs naturally in foods like
artichokes, barley, beans, greens, eggplant, garlic,
onions, peas and legumes.
Q: "Where does the FOS in Super Shield come from? I have
a gluten intolerance and can't have anything made from
barley."
A: The FOS used in Super Shield are extracted from
Jerusalem artichoke tubers in pure form. So it is gluten-
free.
These questions raised a point about the seriousness of
Celiac Disease.
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where your body
has an inappropriate allergic response to gluten--the
protein found in wheat, barley and rye. About 1 million
people in the US have it.
People with Celiac usually suffer from diarrhea, severe
abdominal pain and gas. But the symptoms don't necessarily
end there.
The long list of possible symptoms affect other areas of
your body and can include:
The reason so many symptoms can pop up with Celiac is
because the protein (gluten) damages the mucosal surface of
the small intestine. This disrupts the absorption of
nutrients and allows toxins to seep into your bloodstream
and be carried to other areas of your body to wreak havoc.
The conventional medical treatment for Celiac has involved
avoiding foods containing gluten and taking medications for
symptomatic relief.
But there is another very promising and very logical
solution for Celiac sufferers.
Probiotics.
===================
How Celiacs are different
===================
Recent studies have shown that the mucosal layers in the
intestines of Celiac people is chemically different from
that of other people--their mucus has a different type of
sugar than most other people.
This different sugar seems to favor bad bacteria, which
therefore cling tightly to the intestinal walls. The
presence of these bad bacteria may trigger the undesirable
reaction to gluten.
Probiotics can help because they produce chemicals that
prevent bad bacteria from sticking to your intestinal
walls. They also compete for "parking spaces" along the
walls, crowding out the harmful bacteria and depriving them
of their food source.
Also, Celiac is an autoimmune disease--meaning your immune
system is seeing harmless substances as dangerous invaders.
Since probiotics are strong stimulators of regulatory
immune responses, they can be beneficial to someone
suffering the challenges of Celiac or other autoimmune
disorders.
With its 13 top shelf pharmaceutical grade probiotic
strains, Super Shield is the perfect probiotic formula for
Celiac sufferers.
It also has no sugar, salt, yeast, wheat, corn, gluten,
dairy, artificial colors, flavorings or preservatives.
Now THAT'S a quality probiotic formula--for Celiac
sufferers and everyone else too.

I have been on Super Shield for about a week now, and I
cannot believe how calm my stomach is!
Whenever I went out, I had to scout out the nearest
restroom in each store. Now, I can shop and be
comfortable!
After removing some of my sigmoid colon back in April, I
have been going through such uncomfortable diarrhea and
bloating...everything I ate had an effect on my system.
