Should I take ProBio5 on an empty stomach or with food? When should I take it?
Many people ask the question about how to use ProBio5. The directions on the bottle are to take it with
meal or before bedtime. What should I do? Well, the answer really depends on your intended use.
Digestion: If you are looking for help with digestion, then taking ProBio5 right before a meal will
certainly help. It contains many enzymes that will aid in processing and digesting your meal.
Candida: If you are targeting Candida (i.e. yeast- thrush, vaginal, systemic, toe nail fungus, jock itch) you
should take on an empty stomach preferably before bed. Probiotics are alive, living things. The
reasoning for taking a probiotic on an empty stomach with lots of water and before bed is to avoid
larger amounts of stomach acids present when consuming foods. These acids could potentially kill
them. Also, since there is no food present to digest, the enzymes and friendly bacteria in your gut can
make a more concentrated effort to balance out the harmful bacteria. The ProBio5, however, is micro
encapsulated which means that they are coated in such a way that they are certain to get to where they
need to go to do their job.
When treating Candida, take into consideration that often times there is a die off reaction that is called
Jarisch-Herxheimer Reaction informally referred to herx or herxing. Herxing is believed to occur when
injured or dead bacteria release their endotoxins into the blood and tissues faster than the body can
comfortably handle it. This provokes a sudden and exaggerated inflammatory response such as
headaches, bloating, pain, poor sleep, fatigue, rashes, flu like symptoms, constipation, diarrhea, etc. that
can last for days or up to few weeks. If you are one of the population who is sensitive and experience
this proceed with the ProBio5 as follows…
Suggested Use: The best way is to start with 1 ProBio5 before bed, and when you are sure you have
passed through any die off that dosage creates then increase to 2 before bed, when you are sure that
you have passed through any die off that dosage creates then increase to 3 before bed, and then when
you are sure you have passed through any die off that dosage creates go to 4 before bed.
BioCleanse: BioCleanse is a product that should be used in tandem with the ProBio5. It is an oxidative
cleanser that will clean up the intestinal tract and other cells of the body, helping to remove waste
products and toxins so you feel better.
Suggested Use: You may start with a loading dose of 4 BioCleanse once a day midmorning (between
meals) for a week. After that, you may take 2 about an hour or so after breakfast and another 2 midday.
Maintenance dose would be 2 a day. Do not take late in the day or evening because it oxygenates your
body energizing you. This may cause difficulty in sleeping.
If you are taking any medications, make sure you take them 30-45 minutes after the ProBio5 and
BioCleanse. Give these time to work into your system before adding medications. None of these
items will interfere with your medications, but as your body get reeducated and starts to learn how to
function properly the medications may prevent these products and your body from working together
optimally. Don’t be afraid to ask your doctor about decreasing your medications as you start to feel
better. (BioCleanse does contain citrus that may be contraindicated for some medicines)
And- yes, if you are taking antibiotics it is a good idea to keep taking the ProBio5. Although the
antibiotics are combatting all bacteria, the good and bad, it is essential to keep providing your system
with premium probiotics to fight yeast overgrowth and to repopulate the digestive system. Take the
antibiotics and ProBio5 several hours apart.
** Of course, these are just suggestions based on countless articles of research and videos, some
featuring Dave Brown, co-developer of Plexus Slim products. Please feel free to experiment and find
the best routine for you.
The Bottom Line- Candida lives within us all the time. When its growth gets out of control, it becomes a
big problem. One of the most important things you can do to control this is watch what you eat.
Candida loves and lives off of sugar. To inhibit the growth of yeast, you should avoid eating as little
sugar as you can and use ProBio5 along with BioCleanse to restore your body back to a healthy state.
What to eat:
1. Vegetables, about 6 cups per day in order to get the nutrients you need. Include all colors, such as
yams, leafy greens and red peppers.
2. Meat (preferably grass-fed), including lamb, beef, poultry, pork and seafood.
3. Dairy, including yogurt and cheese with active cultures.
4. Nuts and seeds.
5. Fermented foods — pickles, sauerkraut, miso and so forth.
6. Berries are OK in small amounts.
7. Switch to coconut oil in your cooking — it will inhibit yeast in your food.
What to avoid — the less of these you eat, the better:
1. Sugars and sweeteners of all types
2. Breads, cereals, pasta, grains, rice
3. Fruit, except for berries
4. Starchy vegetables such as potatoes or cooked carrots (raw carrots are OK)
What makes our Intestinal Flora Unhealthy
Factors that disrupt the balance of your Intestinal Flora include:
• Antibiotic Medications
• Inorganic Antibiotic residues in meat and Dairy products
• Chlorinated and Fluorinated water
• Continual Stress
• Diets high in Sugar and simple carbohydrates (like fast food and junk food)
• Estrogen Replacement
• Exposure to Radiation (CAT Scans, excessive medical X-Rays)
• Oral Contraceptives
• Parasites
• Poor Digestion / Constipation
• Toxic Chemical Intake (such as Steroids)
Symptoms that our Intestinal Flora Unhealthy
There are many signs, and they vary according to a person’s genetic makeup, current diet, and stress
levels. These are a few:
• Acne, Eczema, Skin and Foot Problems
• Allergies and Chronic Food Sensitivities (such as Lactose Intolerance)
• Bad Breath and Gum Disease
• Chronic / Unexplained Fatigue
• Chronic Yeast problems; Candida Albican overgrowth
• Difficulty losing weight
• Faulty digestion / Acid Reflux Disease
• Frequent colds, flu, and infections
• Frequent constipation and diarrhea
• Joint pain or inflammation
• Peptic Ulcers
• Poor sleep patterns / nightmares
• Extreme menstrual or menopausal symptoms

Our ProBio5 isn't that expensive and even less expensive compared to some of the "good"
probiotics out there. When people are looking at other products that cost less, often times that
product is just one probiotic such as Acidophilus and Lactobacillus. ProBio5 has 5 different
probiotics that have major rolls to play such as digestion, keeping yeast, fungus and other
microbes at bay and increasing and supporting immune system. It also contains enzymes that are
very powerful at killing the Candida (yeast overgrowth) that is present in almost every American.
Specific enzymes target the outer protective layer of the yeast which opens it up to make it
vulnerable for other enzymes to zoom in to kill it. Grape seed extract is one of the most powerful
of the antioxidants that will fight free radicals. It is 20 times more powerful than vitamin C and
50 times stronger than vitamin E PLUS ProBio5 contains vitamin B6 which helps keeps body
oxygenated. A well oxygenated body is resistant to yeast and fungi.
This brings me to the BioCleanse which I think is just as amazing. Many people are in a low
oxygen/toxic state. This is caused by poor diet, stress, low activity levels, polluted air and
shallow breathing. The body cannot keep up its metabolism in this state, and begins to gather
waste products more rapidly than it can eliminate them. Viruses, bacteria, fungi and other
pathogenic microbes thrive in this condition, and can lead to diseases such as flu, Candida,
chronic fatigue, etc. Plexus Bio-Cleanse can increase the oxygen levels around these microbes,
causing them to die due to their high-oxygen environment. Not only does this help remove waste
from the body (softens waste matter in colon, helps reduce plaque in arteries and kills microbes)
it also oxygenates all the cells in the body! Think about it, you can live weeks without food, days
without water, but barley minutes without oxygen!! As the liquefied plaques and dead pathogens
move toward leaving the body, the magnesium creates a colon flushing reaction, increasing
bowel activity and preventing re-absorption of the toxins. --- Not all cleanses will oxygenate
your body or kill microbes. This is not like just taking vitamins and fiber to clean out your
system. It is much more. AND, again, this "cleanse" is not expensive at all compared to some of
the products out there which are much more involved with shakes and many pills and fiber. Don't
get me wrong, we all need our FIBER!
