10. My Favorite Probiotic
 Probiotics are good for your face, but it will
help face better if your insides are working
better. Probiotics can help you get your
digestive tract running like it should. Like it’s
meant to.
 Probacto is the best probiotic that I have
ever run into. They use multiple strains and
they are spore forming so they can last
while not refrigerated. They do not use
cheap bacteria, but expensive ones such as
B. Subtilis.
 Probacto also contains prebiotics to help
stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria in
your gut.
 Probacto contains digestive enzymes to
assist in your digestion.
 Probacto is enteric coated and made to be
slow release so it will release in your gut

11. Conclusion
 Many products in the cosmetics industry have
been trying different ways to innovate their
products. One of those innovative ways is the
incorporation of probiotics in manufacturing
cosmetics and beauty products. Probiotics
have been known to be effective in the
maintenance of digestive and immune health
balance. However, the use of probiotics in
skincare has little evidence in terms of its
effectiveness. So, claims made by companies
producing these kinds of products should be
checked for its quality.
