Research-backed probiotic for heart health
The science
Where statins stop, biology starts.
Most probiotics chase microbiota balance and call it a day. Probiotic Cardio is built around three specific, patented Lactobacillus plantarum strains — naturally present in healthy human guts — with a single, targeted job: keep your cholesterol where it belongs.
These strains survive harsh gastrointestinal conditions, adhere to your intestinal lining, and produce large amounts of bile salt hydrolase — the enzyme that interrupts how dietary cholesterol gets back into your bloodstream.
It's a complementary support to a heart-healthy lifestyle, designed to work synergistically with statins. Quiet, clinical, and very, very Canadian.
Three patented strains
Each KABP™ strain is a human-resident Lactobacillus plantarum, selected for specific phenotypic behaviours — and clinically proven to act on lipid metabolism.

Mechanisms of action
One capsule, three biochemical paths to the same outcome — less cholesterol re-entering your bloodstream.
01
The strains produce Bile Salt Hydrolase (BSH) — an enzyme that breaks down bile salts so they can't emulsify cholesterol and shuttle it back into your blood.
02
SCFAs inhibit your body's own cholesterol production and help pull existing cholesterol from the blood back to the liver for clearance.
03
The strains physically bind cholesterol in the gut, preventing absorption into the bloodstream and facilitating excretion the natural way.
Published clinical trials
In published clinical work, this specific triple-strain formula produced meaningful, statistically significant changes in the three blood-lipid markers your doctor watches. With probiotics, more is not better. Trials were done with one capsule per day for an average of 12 weeks. Adding more capsules did not add more benefits.

Real people
After a few months of taking Probiotic Cardio, my cholesterol levels improved significantly and my doctor was impressed with the results.
My husband and I have been taking this for 3 years now. It has helped lower my cholesterol and stabilized his high blood pressure. I highly recommend this product.
