Probiotics were discovered to be very important to the digestion and overall immunity of a person because the body needs good bacteria in order to combat the bad ones inside the body. In fact, Australian doctors agree that if a patient would take an antibiotic, he has to make sure that he takes probiotics during the course. So for those who would want to improve their health, here are some of the best multi strain probiotic supplements out there in the market.

Now for the past decades, a lot of research has been put into finding out the best combinations of good bacteria for the body. Of course there are many strains of bacteria but each of them have their own specific function. It is because of this that scientists would often mix different kinds of beneficial bacteria into one capsule.

Now GNC, one of the very well known health store brand names, would have their own probiotics. They have the very popular GNC 25 CFU Probiotic supplements. Now this supplement would have exactly 16 strains and would have a bacteria number of 25 million.

Now another very good brand of probiotics would of course be Nexabiotic which has more strains than the previous kind and also it has a higher count as well. Now the bacteria count of this supplement is actually 30 million CFU in each little capsule. Now it also has around 21 strains of good bacteria and it is also a very well known brand in the US.

Now in the East, their research on good bacteria is a bit more advanced and more effective because they prefer that the bacteria would be live inside the capsules instead of freeze dried ones. Probably one notable one would be Osumex LB17. They only make use of different kinds of natural foods like fruits and vegetables for fermentation in order to create lactic acid bacteria that is alive inside the capsule.

Of course another market leader of probiotics comes from Japan under the brand name of OMX created by Dr. Iichiroh Ohhira. Now this one has 12 strains of good bacteria with the main component of this one coming from a fermented food that is known as tempeh. Of course unlike the western probiotics, this one just has a CFU of 1 million but is very effective to people as the bacteria is live and very natural.

Now a second generation of probiotics was created when co founder of Dr. Ohhira, who is Dr. Lim, split with the original OMX group in order to form his own supplement. Now his one had around 16 strains of good bacteria but had a special one called Lactobacillus Gasseri ATCC which came from the human gut. This was patented and used in his company named Pan OMX.

So if one would want to try probiotics, then he may buy some of these products. Now if one would want a good and affordable product, the first two would be a good buy. However, if one would really want something that is of really high quality and is very specialized, the last three are the ones to choose from.
