Abstract
A method for growing probiotic organisms wherein the growth media includes prebiotics especially selected and prepared to be paired with the probiotic organisms being grown. The prebiotic formula is optimized to grow the desired probiotic organisms, as well as important byproducts of the growth process. Specialized freeze-drying buffers may also be paired with certain probiotic organisms for the freeze-drying process. Specific products may utilize selected probiotic organisms grown and supported with paired prebiotic formulas to promote and maintain physiological health in a subject.
