Align is a daily probiotic supplement that helps promote a healthy digestive system.* When taken daily, Align works by providing an ongoing natural defense against occasional digestive upsets.* How does Align help digestive problems? When you were very young, most of the bacteria in your digestive system were good Bifidobacteria. As you mature, most of these good bacteria disappear from your digestive system. Align delivers Bifantis, a unique good Bifidobacteria that helps restore your digestive balance.* Not having enough good bacteria in the digestive system can lead to occasional digestive imbalance. Occasional upsets can also be caused by changes in your schedule, diet, travel, or other factors. By delivering healthy bacteria, Align helps restore the balance of good bacteria to build and maintain a strong, healthy digestive system.* Why do I need Align? Your body needs good bacteria ("probiotics") for a number of things, including healthy digestion. But these bacteria are fragile. When you were very young, most of the bacteria in your digestive system were good Bifidobacteria. As you mature, most of these good bacteria disappear from your digestive system. Align delivers Bifantis, a unique good Bifidobacteria that helps restore your digestive balance. Common issues such as changes in diet and schedule, stress, antibiotic use, and travel can disrupt your natural balance of good bacteria, which can lead to occasional digestive upsets. Bifantis, the probiotic ingredient in Align, replenishes your system with natural good bacteria.* When taken daily, Align promotes a healthy digestive system, helping to restore your natural balance, and gives you an ongoing natural defense against occasional digestive upsets that can interrupt your life.* Who should take Align? Healthy people who deal with occasional digestive upsets or who are interested in promoting their digestive wellness would benefit from taking Align.* If you occasionally experience these common digestive upsets, taking Align replenishes your digestive system with good bacteria to help restore the natural balance and promote digestive health.* Taking Align even when you are not experiencing the occasional ups and downs of digestive imbalance gives you a natural defense by promoting a strong, healthy digestive system.* What is a probiotic? The word "probiotic" means "for life." Probiotics are good bacteria that provide a health benefit and are essential for many vital body functions, including healthy digestion. Probiotics are increasingly being used and evaluated in the management of digestive health. When you were very young, most of the bacteria in your digestive system were good Bifidobacteria. As you mature, most of these good bacteria disappear from your digestive system. Align delivers Bifantis, a unique good Bifidobacteria that helps restore your digestive balance.* Your body needs beneficial bacteria for a number of things, including healthy digestion. But theyâre fragile. Common issues such as diet, antibiotic use, illness, and stress can disrupt your natural balance of good bacteria. Align contains Bifantis, a probiotic that replenishes your digestive system with good Bifidobacteria.* Not all probiotics are created equal. Not all probiotics are alike. Different strains of the same species may differ in a number of ways, but what matters most to you is how well the bacteria strain works for you. What should I look for in a probiotic? According to a new set of guidelines called The P's and Q's of Probiotics, unveiled by The International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP), there are five criteria that consumers should consider when selecting a probiotic: probiotic strain, clinical proof, packaging, quality, and quantity. See how Align meets these criteria and is a good option for people wanting to build and maintain a natural defense against occasional digestive upsets.* Probiotic Strain: Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 (Bifantis) is the patented probiotic ingredient in Align that can help build and maintain the bodyâs natural defenses. Proof: Bifantis has been the subject of several clinical studies and has been featured in peer-reviewed journals. Please see bifantis.com for full details. Packaging: Align contains 1 x 109 (1 billion) CFU of live bacteria when manufactured, and provides an effective level until the "best by" date on the package. Align capsules come in specially designed blister packs that ensure bacteria remain alive and effective until the date on the box. Quality and Quantity: DNA testing guarantees the purity of Align. The packaging and labeling meet all World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations by clearly stating: Strain: Bifidobacterium infantis 35624 (Bifantis) Colony-forming units (CFU): 1 x 109 (1 billion) live bacteria Suggested serving size: One capsule daily Health benefits: Promotes a healthy digestive system with ongoing probiotic protection*† Proper storage conditions: Store at room temperature; no refrigeration required. Corporate contact information: AlignGI.com or (800) 208-0112 Calorie content: 0 calories in each capsule Is Align like yogurt? How is it different from probiotic yogurts? While some yogurts contain bacteria to confer benefits consistent with those of a probiotic supplement, yogurt in the United States is not required to contain any live cultures, and results from tests of yogurt products show a wide range in the levels of live bacteria. The delivery of probiotics in either yogurt or fermented milk is limited by the need for cold storage and an associated shorter shelf life. Additionally, many people with occasional digestive upsets may have trouble consuming sufficiently large quantities of these products. Align is different because only Align contains Bifantis, a patented probiotic strain, available in a convenient capsule form. * This statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.0 based on 82 reviews)
| Align Met My Expections by Richard Arias (Ca USA) 5 Stars November 10, 2009 Before taking Align my stomach was uncomfortable all the time, especially in the morning and was afraid to eat on the road. But now I don't worry about eating out, Align has worked a miracle for me. No upset stomach worries any more.
| | This or Culturelle? by D. B. Mejia 3 Stars November 08, 2009 Culturelle claims itself as all natural in a way that Align can't? Why is that? What does Align have in its ingredients that keeps it from making this claim?
| | Great results! by C. Schmitt (Las Vegas, NV USA) 4 Stars November 04, 2009 I've been on Align for six weeks and have had a lot of improvement. I'm going to give it ten weeks to work its magic. I have chronic bronchial asthma, suffer from frequent bouts of bronchitis and sinus infections and had one too many series of antibiotics over the previous ten months. I began suffering with very bad pain in my lower abdomen. I've also been supplementing daily with servings of plain, organic yoghurt and/or Kefir. Keep track of your eliminations, it helpful to your physician or so mine said.
| | Feel the difference by Teresa D. Nelson (Jacksonville, Fl) 5 Stars November 02, 2009 I taken it for three week and I missed two days just to see if I could tell the difference and BOY could I! I imediately start back taking them and I am so much better. Less gas less bloating and less discomfort.Align Daily Probiotic Supplement Capsules, 28-Count Box
| | Great Product by A. Kubacki (Riverhead, NY USA) 5 Stars October 28, 2009 My doctor recommended this product, and after almost three weeks, I have to say that I do feel better. I am more comfortable and going more normally. With IBS, this is not often the case. I would recommended this product to anyone with IBS.
