Krill oil, with mainly polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3), is effective in supporting brain health. It has also been seen to support blood vessel function, healthy circulation and blood pressure, heart health, cholesterol levels, and brain health. The astaxanthin in the Krill Oil Advanced formula at InViteⓇ Health is a powerful antioxidant that helps promote a healthy inflammatory response and heart health.†

The probiotic at InViteⓇ Health contains 600 million CFU (0.6 billion) of LactoSpore, a healthy bacteria stain colonizing into additional flora. LactoSpore has been proven in human clinical trials to be effective in supporting digestion and a healthy immune system.†
There have been new studies to support the use of probiotics on mental health disorders. Specifically, a clinical trial has studied that the strains to help the most with mental health are lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium bacteria.2 Probiotics have been seen to influence macrophages, signaling the pathways to affect the cytokines and apoptosis. Mental health disorders have been associated with the gut, dysbiosis, and digestion due to inflammation markers.2 The use of probiotics has been studied to help alleviate some mental health symptoms.†
