The fourth bacteriophage strain in the PreforPro blend, targeting harmful gut bacteria.

DOES IT WORK?
Results vary. The fourth phage in the PreforPro quartet. Same class (Myoviridae) as LH01 and T4D. Together, these four phages create a broader spectrum of bacterial targeting than any single strain. The blend approach makes biological sense since phages are highly strain-specific. Individual contribution isn't separable from the blend data.
