Nature’s Sunshine PLS II, stock number 1029, is being discontinued. The recommended replacement is Intestinal Soothe & Build, stock number 1106.
Nature’s Sunshine recommends this blend because it keeps the soothing herbal support that PLS II customers look for, while adding support for digestive comfort and normal intestinal function.
Why Intestinal Soothe & Build?
The manufacturer describes PLS II as focusing mainly on soothing the intestinal lining. Its replacement builds on that approach with a combination of soothing herbs and calming botanicals intended to help the digestive system work comfortably and maintain its normal rhythm.
In plain terms, the recommendation is about more than soothing alone. Intestinal Soothe & Build is designed to support both gut lining comfort and overall digestive balance.
What’s familiar, and what changes?
Slippery elm and marshmallow remain part of the replacement formula. These herbs are traditionally valued for soothing the mucous membranes that line the digestive tract.
Intestinal Soothe & Build also includes chamomile, which Nature’s Sunshine describes as supporting digestion and helping the body cope with tension. Plantain and rose hips round out the current ingredient list.
It isn’t the same formula under a different name, but it continues the soothing approach while offering broader digestive support. Nature’s Sunshine also describes it as helping relieve occasional bloating and pressure.
What should I know before switching?
Follow the replacement’s label directions rather than carrying over your PLS II capsule count. The current directions for Intestinal Soothe & Build are three capsules with a meal three times daily.
If a healthcare professional recommended PLS II for a specific concern, check with them before changing formulas. Persistent digestive symptoms deserve medical attention rather than simply trying another supplement.
