Asked on: May 30, 2013
Question: what is it used for

0 0 A: Aloe vera can be used for many things. Historically, aloe was used topically to heal wounds and for various skin conditions, and orally as a laxative. Today, in addition to these uses, aloe is used as a folk or traditional remedy for a variety of conditions, including diabetes, asthma, epilepsy, and osteoarthritis. It is also used topically for osteoarthritis, burns, sunburns, and psoriasis. Aloe vera gel can be found in hundreds of skin products, including lotions and sunblocks.

Product: Jarro-Dophilus EPS (60 capsules)
Asked on: May 30, 2013
Question: What does the EPS stand for? Is there DDS-1 in any of Jarro-Dophilus products. I see that this question was asked before but not answered.

0 0 A: EPS stands for Enhanced Probiotic System. Unfortunately I do not see any Jarro-Dophilus products with DDS-1 in it. Please note that Jarro probiotics are the #1 probiotics in the US. Jarro-Dophilus EPS® is a Stable-Dophilus® probiotic due to its shelf life stability at room temperature and its enteric coating delivery system which protects the beneficial probiotic strains while in transit through the stomach's acidic environment.* The delivery system ensures that a maximum number of viable cells are delivered into the intestinal tract, where they can fully exert their beneficial effects. We do, however have a few non-Jarrow probiotics that do contain DDS-1 from the manufacturer UAS Labs if you are interested. You can view a couple of them below. http://www.seacoast.com/dds-plus-caps/uas-labs/5-billion-cfug-100-vcaps/p7351 http://www.seacoast.com/dds-acidophilus-tabs/uas-labs/100-tablets/p7353 http://www.seacoast.com/dds-plus-powder-l-acidophilus-bifidus-l/uas-labs/2-5oz/p7352

Product: Bio-Dophilus (90 capsules)
Asked on: May 30, 2013
Question: Does all Lactobacillus acidophilus supported by DDS-1?

0 0 A: DDS-1 is a unique strain of L. acidophilus discovered by Dr. Khem Shahani in 1959 after studying and comparing the properties of numerous strains of L. acidophilus. Dr. Shahani’s work at the university of Nebraska in the Department of Dairy Science, over a period of 40 years, addressed the most critical issues: stability, viability and bioactivity of the cells, resistance to digestive acidity, antibiotic-like and other probiotic aspects, and above all successful implantation in the digestive system. In addition, he developed an unsurpassed, proprietary stabilization process to protect the beneficial bacteria during manufacture, packaging and distribution. Dr. Shahani named this particular strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus “DDS-1,” for the Department of Dairy Science Number 1 strain. During the subsequent 40 years of research he spearheaded at the University of Nebraska, Dr. Shahani published over 200 scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals. Dozens of these articles document the numerous beneficial properties of this important strain. Dr. Shahani was internationally recognized for his pioneering work, receiving top scientific and industry awards, and received U.S. Patent #3,689,840 on his method of isolating an antibiotic-like substance from the DDS-1 strain, which he named “acidophilin.” The DDS-1 strain of L. acidophilus is currently distributed worldwide. However, Dr. Shahani’s manufacturing and stabilizing techniques are exclusive to him and the company he founded, Nebraska Cultures, Inc. Only Nebraska Cultures produces the DDS-1 strain of L. acidophilus according to Dr. Shahani’s rigorous manufacturing and quality-control standards. As is customary for such scientific discoveries, L. acidophilus DDS-1 was placed into the public domain. The original culture is on deposit at the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Culture Collection, previously known as NRRL, with the identification number B-3208. Because it is available to the public, it is not possible to register a trademark on the name of this strain in the United States of America. Nebraska Cultures supplies Dr. Shahani’s® DDS-1 strain of L. acidophilus. Nebraska Cultures’ customers may identity this strain on their product labels and advertising, subject to guidelines furnished by Nebraska Cultures, Inc. If it’s not Dr. Shahani’s®, it’s not the original superstrain discovered, developed and manufactured according to Dr. Shahani’s proprietary methods. Vote down - Vote up

Product: Branched Chain Amino Acids (90 caps)*
Asked on: May 29, 2013
Question: Do you need these amino acids if you are taking ppq?

0 0 A: Branched Chain amino acids may be good for a number of things such as the liver and the muscles. Because L-valine, L-leucine, and L-isoleucine can be oxidized in the cell’s mitochondria, the branched chainamino acids may also provide energy and may serve as fuel sources for skeletal muscles during periods of metabolic stress.61-66 As a result, BCAAs have been used with success to support liver function.67-72 A study in 2008 also showed BCAAs supplementation improved insulin resistance and beta cell function as well as energy metabolism and glucose tolerance in certain people.73,74 They are also used by athletes.61,75-82 A current mouse study showed restoring hippocampal BCAA concentrations to normal had the effect of reinstating normal brain function by helping the synapses to function efficiently. You may want to discuss with your physician if this supplement is needed if you are taking ppq as they can best advise. Vote down - Vote up
