Hadayubi™ is formulated as an especially soothing and therapeutic skin care experience. Use it as a rejuvenating night cream for both normal and sensitive skin.
      • Dr. Ohhira’s Premium Collagen PlusCollagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. Not only is it a major component of muscles, tissues, bones, tendons, and blood vessels, but it is also responsible for keeping our skin smooth and firm. Though the body produces collagen naturally, production slows down as we age. And other factors, including environmental elements, stress, smoking, and high-sugar diets can accelerate the degradation of collagen and elastin in the skin. The end result is skin that’s lax, thin, and dry. As the largest single organ in the body, we rely on our skin to help us retain moisture. It serves as a barrier against environmental toxins, illness-causing microbes, and other threats, as well. Skin health is vital to our well-being, and providing it with ample “building blocks” to repair itself and produce new collagen fibers is one of the best ways to keep it in fighting shape!
    • Reg’Activ Formulas
      • Reg’Activ Detox & Liver Health
      • Reg’Activ Cardio Wellness
      • Reg´Activ Immune & Vitality™Reg´Activ IMMUNE & VITALITY* contains the revolutionary probiotic strain Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3. Studied for over 20 years, ME-3 produces glutathione—well known for its antioxidant, detoxification, and immune system-supporting activities.*
      • Reg’Activ Essential ME-3The best way to keep the body functioning at its optimal health level is to ensure a consistent sleep and exercise schedule and follow a healthy diet. Over time, however, the presence of these three key items is not enough. While they provide an excellent foundation for health, our bodies begin to naturally slow down the production of essential molecules and amino acids that aid in the detoxification process. Glutathione is an antioxidant present in every cell in the human body and is generally regarded as the ‘mother of all antioxidants’ or the ‘Master Antioxidant’ because of its ability to prevent and delay cell damage and help detoxify chemicals in the liver.* Unfortunately, just when adequate glutathione levels are needed the most, aging and other lifestyle factors adversely affect the natural production of glutathione in the body.

Best of Supplements Award 2011

Earns Distinction of Only Supplement to Ever Receive this Honor

Sep 20, 2011

Best of Supplements Award Winner 2011

DALLAS, TX (September 20, 2011) – Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics has been named a ‘Best of Supplements’ award winner in the Probiotic Category for the fourth year in a row. Better Nutrition Magazine will present the Award during the Natural Products Expo East held in Baltimore, Sept. 21-25.

“We are honored but not surprised by the continued accolades that Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics garners from the natural product industry, health care practitioners and consumers,” said William Schoor, vice president of Essential Formulas. “This is a truly remarkable product backed by years of research and formulated like no other probiotic available in the United States today.”

While in Malaysia EFI’s President and CEO, Michael Schoor, discovered the probiotics extraordinary benefits after acquiring food poisoning and became determined to discover the science behind this remarkable remedy. His search led him to Japan where he met with the products founder, Iichiroh Ohhira, Ph.D., one of Japan’s leading microbiologists. He learned that over 20 years of university-based, scientific research studies had proven the product, including its proprietary TH10 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strain, to be strong, safe and effective in dealing with digestive distress. Essential Formulas was established in 2000 and is the sole distributor of Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotic products in the United States

To select the winning products the editors of Better Nutrition conducted extensive interviews with a panel of experts, including naturopaths, medical doctors, and experts in the supplement industry. They also considered the quality of ingredients, product uniqueness in the marketplace, product reputation and reader reviews. The award winners will be featured in the November 2011 issue of Better Nutrition.

Nicole Brechka, Editor-in-Chief of Better Nutrition, commented that Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics was the overwhelming winner in the probiotic category and the only supplement ever to win four years running.

Suzy Cohen, R.Ph., pharmacist, syndicated health columnist, and author believes Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics is extremely deserving of this honor. “Dr. Ohhira’s innovative formula encourages the growth of a person’s own unique probiotics, and it is this distinction that sets it apart from all other brands and makes it my number one recommendation.”
