PurO3’s probiotic suppositories are a multi-strain combination mixed with natural cocoa butter.

Our cocoa butter is certified organic and naturally contains vitamins, minerals, and bioflavonoids with antioxidant properties. This serves as a base for our combination of 18 strains of beneficial bacteria along with a prebiotic.

Each package contains your choice of 10 or 20 suppositories. This product is not ozonated. Each suppository contains 50.7 billion CFU (colony-forming units).

The benefit of using a suppository is that the total dosage of probiotics goes to the source of intestinal flora imbalance without having to be digested. When taken orally, anywhere from 1/2 to 3/4 or more of the strains do not make it past the stomach acids. Suppositories are a solution to this problem.

Probiotic suppositories are used to help reestablish gut flora, help diminish vaginal yeast infections and bacterial infections of BV (bacterial vaginosis), and may help prevent recurring urinary tract infections.

More about probiotics

Our intestines contain a rich supply of blood vessels that actively exchange substances, and mucous membranes that harbor vast communities of functional bacteria. Numerous studies have examined the complex mechanisms of the beneficial effects of probiotics. Bacteria help create a protective lining on the walls of the intestine by stimulating the production of mucus and regulating adherence by certain bacteria. This helps support a proper balance of microbiota in the gut. Antimicrobial peptides, or bacteriocins, are produced by these bacteria and establish competitive exclusion of pathogenic strains.  

Each suppository contains 50.7 billion CFU (colony-forming units).

Note: This product is not ozonated.
