Description Ingredients FAQ Reviews

Support Your Body’s Microbiome

Shortly after birth, you inherit microbes from your mother and the surrounding environment. The total of all the microbes that call your body home is called the microbiome. With more than 40,000 species possible and an infinite number of possible combinations, your microbiome is unique from every other person’s on the planet.

Though it was once thought that the microbes of the body were isolated mostly to the gut and skin, more recent research has revealed that ultra-low concentrations of microbes exist in all the tissues of your body — including your blood, heart, and even your brain.

Your health is very dependent on the health of your microbiome. As you go through life you continue to add microbes to your microbiome; maintaining a healthy immune system is essential for preserving the balance of “good” and “bad” microbes.

The herbs in Advanced Biotic work in two ways:

  1. They help maintain microbiome balance directly
  2. They support the immune system, which has the big job of managing the menagerie of microbes that inhabit the body.

"This has optimized my overall health. My immune function has significantly improved since taking this product over the past year."

JESSE H.


Suggested Use:

For ongoing immune and microbiome support, take 3 capsules of the formulation once a day, ideally with food and plenty of liquid.

For more acute immune and microbiome support, increase servings to 3 capsules of the formulation twice daily, ideally with food and plenty of liquid, for as long as needed.

Consult your healthcare provider before using this product if you have a medical condition, are pregnant or nursing, or are taking medications.

Ingredients

Inside Advanced Biotic

Each ingredient in Advanced Biotic brings an impressive spectrum of benefits to the table. Combined, they provide comprehensive coverage with clinical grade herbs at serving sizes based as closely as possible on research and traditional use to ensure maximum efficacy for immune and microbiome support. These are herbs that Dr. Rawls has personally used and trusted for decades.

Natural, Clinically-Studied Ingredients

AP-Bio™ Andrographis Extract (Andrographis paniculata)

Andrographis is a key herb for acute immune support. Traditional use and numerous modern studies support use of andrographis for periods when the immune system is under heavy strain. This herb supports the immune system and the gut microbiome, and helps bile flow and liver function to expedite removal of toxins from the body.*

Berberine

Berberine is an isolated herbal constituent found in plants like Chinese coptis, barberry, and Oregon grape. It’s known for its powerful microbiome balancing activities, particularly in the gut. *

Cat’s Claw Extract (Uncaria tomentosa)

Native to Central and South America, this woody vine has a wide variety of traditional uses including immune support and microbiome balancing.*

Japanese Knotweed Extract (Polygonum cuspidatum)

Contains resveratrol and a wide spectrum of chemical compounds that support normal immune function and promote microbiome balance. Japanese knotweed, also promotes healthy cardiovascular function and has robust antioxidant activity.*

Garlic (Allium sativum)

A special form of garlic that has 10,000 ppm of active allicin per 200 mg serving. This remarkable ingredient supports the immune system and helps balance the microbiome. Garlic has long been used for targeted respiratory support in many traditional herbal traditions throughout the world.*

Sarsaparilla (Smilax medica)

Encourages natural removal of endotoxins and immune complexes to support the immune system and promote a healthy response to inflammation.*

FAQ

FOR BEST USE

What is the recommended serving plan for this product?

For ongoing immune support, take 3 capsules of each formulation once a day, ideally with food and plenty of liquid.

For acute immune support when you feel like your immune system or microbiome is under increased strain, increase servings to 3 capsules of twice daily, ideally with food and plenty of liquid.

Consult your healthcare provider before using this product if you have a medical condition, are pregnant or nursing, or are taking medications.

When should I take Advanced Biotic?

For ongoing immune and microbiome support, simply take 3 capsules once a day. Ideally, take with food and a glass of water, in the morning.

For acute immune and microbiome support, increase the serving size to 6 capsules per day. You can take 3 with breakfast and 3 with dinner. Or, take 2 with breakfast, lunch, and dinner for more sustained immune and microbiome support throughout the day.

Should I take this product with food and liquids?
It’s ideal to take this product with food and water to increase activation and absorption of the ingredients. However, it’s not critical, and the majority of benefits will still be gained if taken without food or water.

WHAT TO EXPECT

When does this formulation usually start to work?

The herbs in Advanced Biotic get to work immediately. To maximize cumulative benefits for ongoing support, we recommend taking this product for at least 2-4 weeks, however, it may be taken longer if needed.

For acute immune support, take double the serving for 2-3 days, or longer as needed.

PRODUCT FACTS

Is this product gluten-free?
Our products are 100% gluten-free.
Does this product contain caffeine or other stimulants?
This product does not contain caffeine or any other stimulants.
Is this product for women and men?
Yes, this formula is designed to benefit both women and men.
Why are there 3 capsules? Can I just take 1 capsule?

Dr. Rawls and the formulation team at Vital Plan suggest taking the full 3-capsule serving in order to get optimal benefits from these herbs. The serving sizes of each ingredient are based as closely as possible on the amounts shown to be effective in clinical use, research studies, and/or traditional use.

Some other products on the market may contain the same ingredients in this formulation, but at levels much too low to provide significant benefit. In some cases, other brands may have proprietary blends that prevent you from seeing how much of a certain ingredient you are receiving.

How is this product different from a probiotic?
The balance of bacteria within your gut and throughout your body is as unique to you as your fingerprint. So, while probiotic supplements provide “good” gut flora, there is no guarantee they will establish the right balance for your body and in addition, they may not be enough to balance out any “bad” microbes that may be present. The ingredients in Advanced Biotic do a good job of supporting your body to naturally maintain your unique whole-body microbiome balance and often negate the need for a probiotic.
Who formulates your products?
Each and every one of our products is formulated by Vital Plan co-founder and Medical Director, Dr. Bill Rawls. Dr. Rawls is a medical doctor with more than 30 years of clinical practice, and an herbal expert with more than 20 years of experience in the herbal and supplement industry.

Fantastic combination of ingredients!

I am on my second bottle of Advanced Biotic and I was genuinely grateful how easy it was to increase the capsules according to schedule and have no issues getting to the recommended dosage. As I continue this product I learn more and more about the individual ingredients and am grateful such excellent herbs were chosen to work so well together to promote health and wellbeing. Also, having Belinda and the team for support has been exactly what I needed to build great confidence and move forward with ease!

Honestly this program has been extraordinarily helpful overall. However in recent months (after 7 mos on program) my stomach has been a painful mess (this was not a problem in past). Each time upon removing advanced biotic (and recently briefly the entire protocol) the situation vastly improves. Again, I think overall it has been absolutely brilliant and an enormous help, but I do think the possibility of stomach distress and taking occasional breaks might be suggested? Thx for all you guys do. Truly.

Vital Plan

Thank you for your product review of Advanced Biotic. We are happy the formula has helped you overall. After 6-12 months it is a good idea to switch herbal formula. Consider switching to Biome Boost, a formula with similar activity as the Advanced Biotic.
