Duodophilus: a probiotic design to restore and maintain effective intestinal flora.  The maintenance of friendly bacteria in our large intestine is critical for vitamin synthesis, gut integrity, proper elimination and immunity. Because of the negative impact of antibiotics in the food we consume and the medicine we ingest, restoring gastro-intestinal function is essential for Pillars III and IV.

The herbal combination:

1.  Artichoke: selected to restore liver function, a vital part of Pillar II, the processing of fat and Pillar III, the elimination of toxins.

4. Siberian Ginseng: an adaptogenic herb that is known for its rejuvenating effect.   It regulates adrenal function based on need, and also creates a balance between the sympathetic nervous system (fight/flight) and the parasympathetic nervous system (rest, relaxation and healing).  Because this product regulates the autonomic nervous system, it strengthens and balances all Four pillars: absorption, processing, elimination and protection.
