Everything starts with a healthy gut. Our signature PREBIOTIC + PROBIOTIC delivers 15 billion spores per dose and was formulated specifically to help combat symptoms of IBS + long-term digestive issues and to improve your gut health Rather than using a live strain of probiotics, we use spore based bacteria in our Prebiotic + Probiotic formula. There are a couple of reasons for this - the first is that these spores lie dormant until they’re “activated” in your small intestine. So no false promises of high doses that die in transit (or sitting on shelf for months), plus its room-temperature stable, so no refrigeration necessary. Our Prebiotic + Probiotic contains both prebiotics and probiotics which makes it a synbiotic. If you think of probiotic bacteria as a seed, the prebiotic is a fertilizer: It encourages the good bacteria to grow and multiply, giving it the best chance of survival in your gut. The difference between our probiotic and other strains is that Bacillus Coagulans is naturally protected with a proteinaceous “cocoon” that allows it to withstand the harsh effects of heat, oxygen, ultraviolet rays, and stomach acid. As soon as B. coagulans hits the alkaline environment of the small intestine, the protein shell dissolves and the organism activates. It's worth remembering that most other probiotic strains don't usually make it past your stomach acid.

Your gut microbiome has been proven to have a profound effect on the health of the entire body - from brain function, weight, skin, immunity, digestion and mood. When you consider that up to 80% of our immune system “lives” in the gut and up to 75% of our serotonin is produced there - it makes sense.

A healthy gut is the backbone to all health - from immunity to skin, digestion to energy. Supporting the trillions of bacteria you carry in your body is the first step to a healthy and diverse microbiome. There is a strong link between the health and diversity of your gut and your skin, it is known as the gut-skin connection.
