Why did they select these three probiotics? COMPELLING EVIDENCE!

"Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019™) has a beneficial role in maintaining intestinal barrier functions during gastrointestinal infections by competing and excluding potential pathogens via different mechanisms; maintaining normal tight junction function in vitro; and regulating host immune defense toward pathogens in both in vitro and human studies."
