Description
Survival: Unlike traditional probiotics that hardly survive digestion, spore-based probiotics enjoy a 100% survival rate allowing them to make it to the lower GI tract and colonise the intestines where the majority of beneficial bacteria reside.
Durability: Bacillus spores are able to withstand harsh environments and treatments, unlike other more fragile bacteria. The rugged endospore coating allows the bacteria to withstand extreme heat, cold, pressure, acid conditions, lack of oxygen and even radiation.
No Refrigeration Required: Bacillus spores are dormant life forms that can exist in a desiccated environmeny and be stored un-refrigerated, without affecting their viability. Due to this bi-phastic life cycle there will always be the same number of Colony Forming Units (CFUs) of Bacillus spores at the time of the manufacture and at the expiry date of the product.
Microbiome Diversity: Spores increase the richness and diversity of the gut microbiome, enhancing the proliferation of probiotic organisms such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, which are hard to effectively supplement due to their fragility.
Overcrowding: Rugged spore-based probiotics inhibit the proliferation of unwanted organisms by competitive elimination using quorum sensing. Once the Bacillus spores start to recondition the gut, there is a much lower chance of unwanted organisms being able to colonise.
