Probi Launches Clinically-Supported Probiotic Solution for Metabolic Health at SupplySide West 2024

With 88 percent of U.S. adults being metabolically unhealthy and over 1.9 billion adults classified as overweight worldwide, the need for effective metabolic health solutions is acute. To tackle one of the most critical health issues of our time, Probi is unveiling a new product concept.

Metabolic health, cardiovascular support, and weight management are all key areas addressed by Metabolic Health by Probi®, the latest innovation from Probi which will be unveiled at SupplySide West 2024 during October 28–31.

“Our aim is to help people take control of their microbiome, their gut, and live better for longer. With this product, we want to specifically support metabolic well-being. With cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes being the top two causes of death globally, the need couldn’t be more urgent,” says Anita Johansen, CEO of Probi.

Metabolic Health by Probi® is a new probiotic concept that targets the key markers of metabolic syndrome, a condition linked to higher risks of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Combining two proprietary probiotic strains, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (LP299V®) and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei 8700:2 (L. Paracasei 8700:2®), this new solution offers scientifically backed support for cardiovascular health, weight management, and blood pressure regulation while promoting overall gut function.

Backed by robust clinical evidence, Metabolic Health by Probi® is poised to make a significant impact on the global dietary supplement market by offering brands a flexible solution to meet their consumers’ demands.


Information about the probiotic strains

LP299V®: With over 230 publications and 8 clinical trials, LP299V® is the most clinically validated probiotic strain for metabolic support, specifically shown to enhance cardiovascular health by positively influencing cholesterol levels, inflammatory pathways, and blood vessel dilation.

L. Paracasei 8700:2®: Supported by more than 30 publications, Lpa 8700:2™ has shown remarkable results in improving metabolic health by reducing key risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome. Recent clinical studies demonstrate its effectiveness in promoting weight management and lowering blood pressure and cholesterol.
