Pregnancy Support by Microbiome Labs

A combination of Lactobacillus probiotic strains isolated from the vaginal tract of healthy pregnant women, this unique probiotic formula effectively supports healthy vaginal and gut microbiomes. Boosting the presence of these Lactobacillus species in the body and vagina may maximize fecundity and successful pregnancy outcomes in women.**

Microbiome Labs’ Pregnancy Support formula introduces the ingredient ISTILOS™ B. Infantis (Bifin02™) by Chr. Hansen to the American probiotic market. Isolated from the intestine of a healthy infant, clinical trials and pre-clinical studies suggest that ISTILOS™ can support significant benefits for an infant’s healthy development.

The Science

Your gut microbiome is vital to your metabolism and overall health. Its makeup contributes to a successful pregnancy and long-term health outcomes for you and your baby.

As pregnancy begins and progresses, your gut microbiome may undergo unique inflammatory and immune changes that upset its function and microflora balance. Your ever-shifting hormones also impact your gut function during pregnancy.

Hormonal, metabolic, and immunologic changes to your gut microbiome can happen during your entire pregnancy.

Women’s Health Pregnancy Support Was Designed To:

  • Provide friendly bacteria that support your digestive, immune, and vaginal health** 
  • Reduce pregnancy-related vaginal discomfort**   
  • Promote healthy skin development in infancy and childhood** 
Pregnancy Support contains the Bifidobacterium-powered probiotic strain ISTILOS™ (B. Infantis).* ISTILOS™ (B. Infantis) was isolated from the intestine of a healthy infant and has been clinically and pre-clinically shown to:  
  • Seed the infant gut microbiome through breast milk** 
  • Support an infant’s gut barrier function** 
  • Promote an infant’s immune system development** 

This strain has been used as a food and food supplement ingredient since the early 2000s. Its benefits have been known for decades and are supported by high-quality clinical studies. 

*In 2023, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis, Bifin02™ was trademarked with the commercial name ISTILOS™ B. Infantis.
